Under the moonlit night, a fleet was waiting on the bank of the river. The fleet had ten large boats and dozens of small boats. The small boat carved the bow of strange fish, and the bow of the big boat carved the dragon head; the boat was full of gold, millet, pearls, jade, and strange stones and wood. This fleet seemed to be an ordinary canal fleet in the secular world - cultivators used rings and treasure bags to accommodate objects; mortals used dragon boats, wooden birds, wooden oxes and horses to carry loads.

The treasure bag of rings is not a daily grain, but also a magic weapon forged by spirit stones. The disciples of the sect can hand in one piece; the small sect masters and people in the secular world can usually only use mechanical load-loading objects. It is not surprising.

——But strangely, the ship's ship is by no means an ordinary mortal.

The fleet helmsman greeted the five of us from afar. He also faintly had the aura of a powerful golden elixir. The beard was at the helm and was taciturn. Even if the divine thoughts fluctuated between him and the seven-tailed Su, I didn't feel it. I only communicated with the white-clothed Xiushi with simple but unknown gestures.

All the other dozens of shipmen were dressed in black and had foundation-building cultivation. The strength of a small fleet of shipmen was not inferior to the elite soldiers of the Great Prince. The faces of the shipmen were covered with good human skin masks, which mixed with their original appearance, and dissolved into a mask. If I had not been involved in the gang with my father and had experience in using human skin masks, I would have almost missed it. Princess Lin was reminded by me before she could pay attention.

The helmsman gave the ship opening certificate jointly signed by the prefect of Jiangling and the county magistrate to Qiwei Su,

"Boss, it took us a lot of money to open up the joints of the two yamen beasts."

He smiled foolishly, this was the only sentence of the helm.

"It's okay, I'll come back after all the money is gone."

The seven-tail Su smiled faintly and pointed at the fleet's full load of goods.

“Aren’t these all?”

The ships burst into laughter.

The helmman nodded and took out two wooden boxes inlaid with jade and rose stone for him to show them. The seven-tailed Su carried us on his back, and I didn't see anything inside.

After testing the things in it, Su Qiwei returned the wooden box to the helm.

Then the white-clothed Xiushou picked up a small carp boat and led the four of us into the boat. This carp boat was like other small boats, and was worth a lot of money.

"If you don't want to disclose your identities and methods of use, you might as well use these two external objects when checking."

He delivered a human skin mask and a corresponding fake road guide each with me and the girl in red.

"It's so fun."

The girl in red put it on with great enthusiasm and grimaces at me.

The fleet followed his orders to inspect the officers and soldiers on the river one by one. We both wore human skin masks to restrain the breath of the golden elixir. The small school of the checkpoint used the three-turn magic mirror that could break the illusion, but there was no result; all the road guides were actually true. The officers and soldiers let go without any trouble.

"Start the boat! The rudder is full!"

The fleet of Xiushu in white crossed the five-mile fog barrier on the river surface, and the Seven-tailed Su waved his hand gently.

The fleet turned north and the speed of the ship suddenly increased. It was like a fish and dragon shuttled through the waves, slashing the waves, and speeding like lightning, only the golden elixir was the one who controlled the wind and walked in a line.

After half an hour, the fleet passed through Jiangling County and the speed of the ship dropped back to normal.

"Start the helm, and set up ten more straw men on my carp boat."

The seven-tailed Su suddenly ordered Qiu Yan to take the helm.

——Shi Shi in White told us not to be surprised by strange things after getting on the boat. I pressed my curiosity and watched the boatmen stand ten straw men everywhere in the carp boat without saying a word; the girl in Red blinked her big eyes suspiciously, but she couldn't help but speak.

Then, the wooden mechanical puppet controlled our carp boats to escape from the fleet and divide into two routes. The fleet sailed towards the Jingbei Road in Chu; our carp boats sailed slowly towards the Jiangnan West Road in Wu, where the Longhu Sect Benshan is located.

("How can a mere boat speed so fast?")

I communicate with the Feng Shui compass in my arms with my spiritual thoughts.

("Report to Xiaoxianchang: There are dragon and snake siege in Chu, and the abyss of the water race transforming into dragons. There are people in Chu who are brave and fearless of death. They enter the marsh to obtain the bones of the dragon-turning fish to make boats, and the water flows like flying.")

The spirit of the artifact continues to speak ancient Chinese, analyzing the source and materials of the carp boats clearly - the Nangong family's building boats are made of whale salamanders and dragon bones in the deep sea; the dragon bones of this carp boat were originally made of fish bones of the Daze Divine Fish, no wonder they are so extraordinary.

I told Princess Lin once,

"This Mr. Su is not a master of the four major sects. I don't know what business he is doing, and he is not as generous as a seafar."

I sighed.

Princess Lin did not respond.

Princess Lin is obviously not very interested in exploring the white-clothed showman's business, and she has no idea of ​​the amount of wealth.

"Mr. Su, I'm singing on your boat? I won't disturb you."

She was in a good mood and asked the Qitail Su who talked to Kuang Yizhen about Confucian classics on the other side of Lizhou.

"It's okay."

There was a guqin on the desk of Xiushu in white and Kuang Yizhen. The girl in red asked them to lend it to me.

"What is this for?" I asked her.

("Uncle Master, Lin Daoming used to say that you understand the rhythm. I will give you a voice and a voice for me.")

I tried the scorched zither. The palm of my hand corresponded, and the tutoring zither, which had been abandoned for many years, gradually returned.

The moon is white and the wind is clear, and the water is light. The river flows sound, and it is in a daze.

Princess Lin sang with her buckle on the tongue, and her voice was like the sound of nature:

"The osmanthus boat and the orchid oars, strike the sky and go through the flowing light. I misty my heart, and look at the beauty in the sky."

My piano sounds are in harmony.

Suddenly, I thought of an ancient lyric taught by my mother when I was young, and I also sang it casually:

"Sent a canfly in the heaven and earth, a grain of rice in the vast ocean. I mourn my life for a moment, envy the endless river. I carry the flying immortals to travel, embrace the bright moon and end up forever."

The sound disperses, and the afterglow lasts for a long time.

The other three people on the carp boat stopped talking and listened intently. The Qingqi boy named Qiliner even moved his little cushion from the other side to us, and danced from the cushion to dance with the rhythm.

"The sound of Taoist sect's out-of-dips seems to make people control the wind by relying on their voids and not knowing where to stay. When people with a strong and shallow aura listen, they will be unable to control their reading intentions."

Kuang Yizhen's knuckles lightly knocked on the small case.

Qiliner was stunned and immediately sat back on the small cushion, then quickly moved back to Kuang Yizhen.

Princess Lin smiled.

I saw her face flushed and staring at me like a star. My heart was soft and I lowered my head like a kitten.

("Did you see my uncle so shy?")

She smiled brighter.

The Qiwei Su's carp boat went down the river, and at a speed of hundreds of miles a day, he walked for another night and a day without any trouble. During the whole day, Princess Lin and I had no more gossip. Our cabin in the boat was separated from the other three people - at night, Princess Lin and I were practicing each other and digesting the experience of the Yunmeng Battle. During the day, she looked at the scenery on both sides of the river, and I was busy writing various letters and paper cranes in my cabin with talismans.

There were nearly fifty people from the cloud sweeping group, and I wrote dozens of paper cranes that were sent to Kunlun Dragon and Tiger who were guarding the city west of Jingnan Road that day. One was to greet them for their safety, and the other was to distribute their spoils. I left blank for the title of the spoils, and I had to ask for the accounts recorded by Liu Ziyue before talking about them; the other was to send them to Pianpian and others who were avoiding Longhu Mountain. In the paper crane, I excerpted the Battle Report of the Sword Sect that I saw and asked about the news of our deaths on Pianpian.

All the talismans were written. I thought for a while, and took the rest of the talisman and folded it into a paper crane. At the end of the talisman, I added a code word that only the members of the Cloud Sweeping Group knew. When Pianpian saw the illusion crane, they would naturally answer it and read the letter; if others couldn't answer it, the paper crane could only become a character-less paper without spiritual energy - this was the sound transmission paper crane technique that Pianpian taught me at Lingyamen.

I went out of the cabin to throw out the paper crane, which turned into a white crane with a high smolder flying eastward across the boat. It could fly to Longhu Mountain five hundred miles away in one day, and its destination was the purple lightning flying dragon sensed by the Silver Snake Sword.

After doing this, I suppressed my anxiety and went back to my cabin to take the earth spirit root pill obtained in the Falling Star Cave Heaven - my earth spirit root is relatively inferior. If I take the earth spirit bead directly like taking the fire or wood spirit bead, it will be refined for at least one or two years. Fortunately, I have this earth spirit root on hand.

I remembered Xiaozhi.

Last night, I didn't know why I sang some inexplicable ancient lyrics to Princess Lin. My heart was so swaying, as if there were only me and her in the universe, and there was no third person.

I told myself that I can't do that again.

I clarified my mind and took out the various basic Taoist classics such as thunder techniques, flying swords, talismans, escape techniques that Kunlun taught his outer disciples in the cashier ring, and read them one by one from beginning to end. My general outline of thunder techniques and practical experience, my experience of Taoist techniques on the twenty-five Yuanying, and the text and pictures on the Kunlun classics are integrated into one piece, regardless of each other.

After half an hour, I read the thunder law book at hand until there was no leftover meaning.

One hour later, I read the flying sword scriptures at hand until there was no leftover meaning.

Three hours later, I read the talisman scriptures at hand until there was no leftover meaning.

After reading one-third of the escape scriptures, I stopped the scriptures at hand. Today I have too many integrations and should not seek to achieve the full results in one day. I stepped out of the cabin and couldn't help but roaring towards the moon in the river. The magic of ordinary Taoist techniques has already existed in my mind.

I remembered that the basic magical powers that the disciples of Kunlun outer sects could learn include two sub-genres, illusion and mind-calculating, which I did not have. So I decided to go to Princess Lin's cabin to borrow from her and study them together with the escape scriptures tomorrow.

I walked around the stern deck from the port side of the back boat to the starboard side of the back boat, and saw Qiliner practicing boxing on the deck under the moon. The girl in red happened to be on the stern side of the boat and saw the Qi boy practicing boxing clearly.

She greeted me with great enthusiasm.

"Have you completed your practice today?"

I asked.

"Of course, I have never slacked off for a day. One day, I will take Feixian to travel. Hehe." She replied.

My face turned slightly red.

In my divine thought, I asked her for two major classics, and Princess Lin agreed.

I stood with her and saw Qiliner's Confucian boxing technique. This boxing technique is unforgettable. It was the Confucian secret science that Master Wang Qinian handed over to me: the Dragon Subduing Palm.

The Dragon Subduing Palm is a fighting boxing method deduced by the Confucian school based on the principles of Yi. It controls the energy into a roundness, curved and straight from the heart. Inside and outside, movement, stillness, hardness and softness, and in the middle are all included, and it has benefited me endlessly. But when Master Wang Qinian first told me that the Dragon Subduing Palm method was to transport the true qi according to the principles of acquired Yi; while Qilin's footwork and boxing posture was to transport the true qi according to the principles of innate Yi. There was no sign of killing, but a sign of mixing the essence, energy and spirit to return to the original state. It was not a killing box, but a method of health preservation.

——Suddenly I found that my eyesight and insight were incomparable to the past.

"I originally thought that Confucianism was either talking about the mind and mind, or begging for food in ancient bamboo slips. I didn't expect there was a little trick."

The girl in red kept nodding,

"The skills of boxing and footing are no different from those of the secular internal and external martial arts. We finger the sword, cut the palm of the air, and snap the fingers into the supernatural powers... Our disciples don't bother to learn these little tricks. I didn't expect that there is such Confucian boxing in the world that can make health preservation, kill people, and see the nature of the mind."

"This boxing method is a secret science formed by the Confucian sages who used Yi principles to absorb martial arts. It is called the "Mean Fist Classic". It has infinite supreme changes to adapt to the enemy. When cultivating oneself, use the innate way to transport the Haoranqi, which can subdue the poisonous dragon desires in your heart, which is what you Taoist sect calls the inner demon; when dealing with foreign enemies, it is also called the Dragon Subduing Palm, and use the acquired way to transport the Haoran Qi, and all boxing techniques are in my mastery. Even if I have never seen boxing, I can be transformed into the "Mean Fist Classic" and become a part of the "Mean Fist Classic".

Qiliner said it very well.
