Chapter 139 Peach Blossom Island(2/2)
Use weapons all year round.
Meng Xiuyuan didn't pay much attention to this. Anyway, no matter whether he was a villain or a bandit, he couldn't get anything out of him.
Other normal boatmen were unwilling to take him out to sea, but Meng Xiuyuan did not want to force him. Now that someone with such evil intentions came to his door, it was actually very good.
The journey to Peach Blossom Island was uneventful and no trouble occurred.
However, there were only two people on the boat, Dong Cheng and Meng Xiuyuan. The man couldn't stop talking and kept chatting with Meng Xiuyuan insinuatingly, trying to find out Meng Xiuyuan's identity and background.
When Meng Xiuyuan heard this, he was reluctant to talk to him more, so he just made a perfunctory excuse, saying that he was a leisurely student, and he heard from his classmates that there was a beautiful island on the sea east of Mount Putuo, so he was curious and wanted to take a look.
When Dong Cheng heard this, he didn't express any doubt.
After all, Meng Xiuyuan had passed the Zhenwu Sword to Zhou Zhiruo at this time and did not bring any weapons with him.
With such a delicate and elegant face, paired with a green robe, he looks like a rich man who has never suffered much.
When the ship was approaching the shore, Meng Xiuyuan could smell the fragrance of flowers in the sea breeze. Looking from a distance, the island was lush and green, with green, red, yellow and white flowers blooming like brocade, but not only
Peach blossom.
"I want to go to the island to explore, please wait patiently for me."
Meng Xiuyuan disembarked from the boat at the shore, explained to Dong Cheng, and then went to explore the island alone.
After walking slightly into the island, Meng Xiuyuan took out the dark iron piece hidden in the dragon-slaying knife from his arms and compared it carefully.
I saw that the map on the black iron piece was very detailed. The road was winding and complicated, and there were tiny arrows engraved along the road. The road branched at each end, and there was a small book painted on each end.
Obviously, Xu was just in case someone got lucky and accidentally found the right path after landing on the island. At that time, Guo Jing and Huang Rong did not put all their eggs in one basket, but set up two book collection locations on the island to store these books.
Secret military books are hidden separately.
Meng Xiuyuan followed the map instructions and started searching on the island full of formations and mechanisms.
Nearly a hundred years later, some of the mechanism designs have become ineffective, but there are still many dangers. Without the guidance of a map, even a highly skilled person like Meng Xiuyuan would have some trouble exploring the island.
No wonder everyone who landed on the island died in the past hundred years, leaving behind the name "Ghost Flower Island".
Until he first searched for a cave, Meng Xiuyuan excavated according to the map. Sure enough, he dug out a sealed stone box. When he opened it and looked at it, he found that it was a manuscript made of special materials.
The four words "Collection of Martial Arts" are written in Juanxiu handwriting on the cover of the book. I think it may have been written by the heroine Huang Rong herself.
Meng Xiuyuan couldn't help but be curious. When he opened it, he saw that the content was much richer than he expected.
In addition to the original "Nine Yin Manual" which contains the general outline, there are also several obviously different martial arts methods written at the end of the book.
One is the quick martial arts adapted from "Nine Yin Manual" adapted by Huang Yaoshi, including "Nine Yin White Bone Claw" and "White Python Whip".
Meng Xiuyuan took a quick look and found that Huang Yaoshi was indeed a genius of his generation. He had indeed adapted this skill very subtly, making it quick and easy to achieve with limited consequences.
No wonder in the original timeline, Zhou Zhiruo only learned for a few months and was able to show off her power at the "Lion Slaying Conference", defeating the powerful Yin Liting and forcing Yu Lianzhou to almost die with her.
However, this kind of skill is of little use to Meng Xiuyuan. It can only be used to broaden his horizons and be passed on to the destined people in the future.
The second one is Huang Yaoshi’s own Kungfu from the Peach Blossom Island lineage.
In this part, Huang Rong did not record much, leaving only one special skill "Magical Power with a Snap of Fingers".
It seems that she was smart and knew that her father, Huang Yaoshi, was an arrogant person and did not want to be compared with other magical skills in this book, so she only kept the most powerful one.
Meng Xiuyuan took a brief look at it and found that this "Flicking Finger Magical Power" was indeed very exquisite and brilliant, and it could be said to be unique in terms of martial arts.
No wonder that among the five martial arts back then, Huang Yaoshi dared to say that with this skill, he could be as famous as Nan Di's "One Yang Finger" for decades. Each was good at winning. Now it seems that this is not a boast.
This "Flicking Finger Magical Power" can shoot energy, and it can also be used to shoot real objects such as pebbles. The attack distance is far beyond what "One Yang Finger" can compare with.
In the plot of The Condor, Huang Yaoshi even used his weapon to shake the King of the Golden Wheel from a hundred steps away, which was even more powerful than modern firearms.
Even with Meng Xiuyuan's martial arts attainments at this time, if he studied it carefully, it would be very helpful and he might be able to put it to use in the future.
As for the last third one, it is the "Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon", which was left by Guo Jing and Guo Daxia.
It seems that at that time, the mountains and rivers were broken, and the country was in ruins, which forced the honest and somewhat rigid Guo Daxia to ignore the rules of the Beggar Clan and pass on his best skills.
Meng Xiu looked at this part from a distance and saw that the handwriting was simple and upright, different from the previous ones. It was obviously written by Guo Daxia himself.
This "Eighteen Palms for Subduing the Dragon" is known as the first palm technique in the Golden Book and has been used for nearly two hundred years, so it is naturally unusual.
Meng Xiuyuan took a quick look and was attracted by the content.
The moves of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms are simple and concise, and the essence lies in the movement of energy. It can be said to be extremely profound.
When I first thought about it, I just felt that it was neither extremely strong nor extremely soft. It had both Confucian and Taoist philosophies, and was very different from the Kung Fu that Meng Xiuyuan had learned in the past.
When I think about it more carefully, I feel that it combines the most rigid and the most soft, and is invincible and unstoppable. It is truly a magical skill that is unparalleled in the world.
Although I may be a little disrespectful to the master, I can honestly say that in comparison, the "Air Shock Palm" created by Zhang Sanfeng for Meng Xiuyuan is indeed weaker than the "Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms" in every aspect.
point.
It also requires deep internal strength cultivation as a foundation, but the "Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon" is more than superior to the exertion of power.
If Meng Xiuyuan devotes himself to learning it in the future, the power of his palm skills will definitely be much stronger than it is now.
After a long while, Meng Xiuyuan closed the book with some reluctance and let out a sigh of relief.
I secretly sighed in my heart, as expected, every era has its own heroes. The martial arts contained in this book are much better than Meng Xiuyuan expected. It can be seen that the old and new five masters in the world at that time must have been so elegant.
.
At this time, Meng Xiuyuan even felt a little regretful, feeling that there was a lack of masters in the Yitian world he had traveled to. Apart from Master Zhang Zhenren, a great master of martial arts, there were no other top figures.
Along the way of martial arts, I couldn't help but feel a little lonely.
However, Meng Xiuyuan did not sigh for too long. After putting the book away, he turned around and left the cave, and then explored the remaining places marked on the map.
Not surprisingly, in another hidden cave, Meng Xiuyuan dug out another manuscript with "Collection of the Art of War" written on the cover.
Judging from the handwriting, it is the same as the "Eighteen Palms for Subduing the Dragon" in the previous book. It is presumably written by Guo Jing and Daxia Guo himself.
However, by this time, Guo Daxia's handwriting can already be seen to be slightly sloppy, and there is a sense of anxiety between the lines.
It seems that the war was on the verge of collapse at that time. Guo Daxia was busy with military affairs every day, so it was not easy to find time to write this book.
Meng Xiuyuan flipped through it briefly and saw that the first half of the content was copied exactly from the original "Wu Mu's Suicide Note" because he could see that the habit of choosing words and making sentences was very different from Guo Daxia.
The appended content below contains some of Guo Jing's own insights into military use and his original understanding of "Wu Mu's Suicide Note".
Although Meng Xiuyuan is not familiar with the art of war, after reading it, he feels that the content of the second half is also very valuable.
After all, Guo Daxia had accompanied Genghis Khan in the Western Expeditions of the Yuan Dynasty, and he was well aware of the Mongols' methods of using troops in the field. He also included these key points in the art of war. Although his military level was far less than that of General Yue Fei, he was better than Yue Wumu of the Song Dynasty.
, facing the Mongolian enemy is more targeted.
After a while, Meng Xiuyuan decisively put away the manual.
Compared to martial arts, Meng Xiuyuan is a complete layman in this art of war, and naturally he seems not as addicted as the one just now.
After leaving the cave, when Meng Xiuyuan returned along the road to the shore, the sky was gradually getting dark.
He walked briskly along the way, still feeling happy about harvesting these two precious books.
Unexpectedly, as soon as we arrived at the shore, we saw that something was wrong.
At this time, there was far more than the small boat that came from the beach, but there were several more unknown sailing boats.
There was not only Dong Cheng alone on the coast, but a total of about ten or twenty people, each holding a weapon and looking fierce, waiting there.
The boatman Dong Cheng was obviously in the same group as these people. He also held a spear that came from nowhere and stood at the head of the crowd.
As soon as Meng Xiuyuan walked out of the woods, the group of people immediately saw him. The leader, the boatman Dong Cheng, shouted to Meng Xiuyuan:
"Sir, come here quickly, we have something to talk to you about.
Don't think about escaping. You can't get there without a boat on this vast ocean.
It’s better not to waste our brothers’ time.”
Meng Xiuyuan was delighted when he heard the sound and walked straight towards them. He couldn't help but laugh and said:
"Who said I was going to run away.
I'm still waiting to hear what big deal you have that requires so many people to talk to me about it."
Chapter completed!
