At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 24
It was late at night, and the cold moonlight passed through the window screens, casting a hazy light and shadow in the room, and the insects chirped outside the window.Gao Bufan suffered from insomnia, and this was the first time he suffered from insomnia after traveling to the Sui Dynasty. Lying on the bed, he repeatedly played back the scene of fighting Zeng Ada during the day in his mind.The feeling of being completely crushed by the opponent's strength is too aggrieved. I want to hide but can't hide, want to fight but can't hit, and I can't keep up with speed or strength.

"A master of the inner family? Is there really such a thing as inner strength in this world?" Gao Bufan had also been exposed to hard Qigong in the army in his previous life, but he mainly relied on external objects to continuously hit his body in order to improve his own ability to resist blows. He has practiced for a long time but he has not achieved any tricks. At most, he is a little tougher than ordinary people, and he is a little bit tougher. It is useless when encountering knives and guns. He should bleed or have to bleed, and he has to die.

Gao Bufan originally planned to sneak into the county office today and steal the money back, but after thinking about it carefully, the money given during the day would be stolen back at night, which would inevitably arouse suspicion, so he changed his mind and planned to go again in two days, presumably in the Before the Flying Eagle Racecourse is settled, Yu Wenhuaji will not leave so soon.

Just as Gao Bufan was tossing and turning, there was a soft crackling sound in the quiet night, as if something hit the screen window, Gao Bufan turned over and got off the bed vigilantly, and looked at the window with his head bowed. At this moment, a black shadow made no sound It appeared out of the window without a breath, covering the moonlight, and the room was suddenly dark.

Gao Bufan's heart trembled slightly, and he asked in a low voice, "Who?"

The black shadow outside the window didn't make a sound, just stood there quietly, Gao Bufan was a little hairy, he held the dagger he usually used for diving in his hand, and shouted: "Your Excellency, if you play tricks again, I will shoot arrows!"

"Shooting arrows? Kid, is this how you treat your savior?" An old and deep voice came in.

Gao Bufan's heart moved, and he blurted out: "It's you?"

The black shadow outside the window suddenly disappeared, Gao Bufan hastily pushed open the screen window and jumped out, but just in case, he still did not forget to protect his front with a knife.

Gao Bufan jumped out of the window and landed lightly, but seeing the bright moonlight all over the yard, a round of bright moon hanging high in the sky, the black shadow has long since disappeared, and only the chirping of insects is left around.

Gao Bufan was looking around in surprise, but the old voice suddenly sounded from the back of his head, as if it was whispering in his ear: "The old man is behind you!"

Gao Bufan was so frightened that his hair stood on end, he subconsciously moved forward half a foot, and at the same time stabbed behind him with his backhand, which naturally ended up in the air.

Gao Bufan calmed down, only to find a man in black standing quietly on the roof, with a hideous white ghost mask on his face. At first glance, I thought it was an evil ghost hanging out of nowhere, and if you were timid, you would probably be scared to death.

The man in black waved to Gao Bufan, then jumped up and landed on the top of the wall, and then disappeared silently outside the courtyard wall.

Gao Bufan almost dropped his jaw in shock. The distance from the roof to the wall is at least seven or eight meters, and the man in black did it in one step. Is this still a human?If this person goes to participate in the Olympic Games in later generations, no amount of gold medals will be enough!

Gao Bufan took a deep breath, ran to the bottom of the wall with a run-up, leaped vigorously, reached out and grabbed the top of the wall to climb up.

The night wind was majestic, but under the moonlight, a black shadow was running quickly towards the back of the mountain. Gao Bufan hesitated for a moment, and finally jumped off the wall and quickly chased after him.

The man in black rushed to the foot of Feiying Mountain like a puff of smoke, and finally stopped outside a forest. Gao Bufan also slowed down when he saw this, and stood in front of the man in black. He bowed his hands and asked Said: "In the city today, but the seniors secretly helped?"

The grimacing man in black didn't seem to like to talk much, so he just nodded slightly.Gao Bufan bowed deeply and said, "Thank you senior for your help, but can this junior ask why?"

"The old man thinks you are pleasing to the eye." The man in black finally spoke, his voice was so old that it seemed to come out of a coffin.

Gao Bufan touched his face and said: "Yuwen Zhiji also said the same thing, could it be that the junior looks like a piece of silver, and everyone looks pleasing to the eye?"

The ghost-masked man in black didn't snort, his eyes were as cold as the moonlight, he looked at Gao Bufan a little embarrassed, he laughed dryly and said, "I don't know why senior invited you late at night?"

The ghost-masked man in black snorted coldly: "Don't put gold on your face, brat, I didn't invite you, I called you!"

Fuck, is it possible that experts talk like this?Anyway, for the sake of helping me during the day today, I endured it, cupped my hands and said, "Then why did senior call me out late at night?"

The grimacing man in black said very straightforwardly: "This old man wants to teach you martial arts!"

The corners of Gao Bufan's mouth twitched, this expert is not only a stinky fart, but also a straight man of steel, he tentatively asked: "Why did the senior accept the junior as a disciple, just because the junior is pleasing to the eye?"

"That's right, but the old man never said that he would take you as a disciple."

"The senior just now..."

"Teaching you martial arts is not the same as accepting you as an apprentice!"

Gao Bufan was a little dumbfounded, if he hadn't bet on the skill of the grimacing man in black just now, he would have suspected that the other party was a fish that slipped through the net of the mental hospital.

"Well, since the senior wants to teach the junior martial arts, why are you still wearing a mask, you must let the junior see your true face?" Gao Bufan said.

The grimacing man in black said impatiently: "You brat talks a lot of nonsense, I just ask you, do you want to learn the internal martial arts?"

Gao Bufan blurted out: "Of course I do, can I defeat a master like Zeng Ada just by practicing inner martial arts?"

The grimaced man in black said disdainfully: "Zeng Ada deserves to be called a master? Are you insulting this old man? If your goal is to defeat a small person like Zeng Ada, you should stop practicing as soon as possible to avoid wasting money." Old man's time."

Gao Bufan was sweating secretly, and asked: "Is there still time for this junior to practice internal martial arts at this age?"

The man with a grimace in black said indifferently: "Everyone thinks that the sooner you practice martial arts, the better, but they don't know that the most important thing in practicing martial arts is understanding and perseverance. Seng Can's bald donkey is more than 40 years old. A generation of eminent monks, not only the Dharma is profound, but also cultivated into a vajra body that is indestructible, invulnerable to water and fire, and invulnerable to swords."

"Water and fire are impenetrable, swords are hard to hurt, is it true or not?" Gao Bufan was deeply suspicious, and this was a big blow.

"Old Assassin!"

"what?"

"Use your dagger to stab this old man!" the grimaced man in black said coldly.

Gao Bufan was startled and said: "This is not good, it will kill you."

"Stop talking nonsense, stab it if you want!" The ghost-faced man in black pointed to his chest and shouted.

Gao Bufan raised his dagger and hesitated for a moment, but he couldn't do it. The grimaced man in black shook his head and said: "Mother, mother, it is destined to be difficult. It seems that the old man has misjudged the person. Get out, and pretend that you have never seen the old man tonight." .”

Gao Bufan put his mind to one side, and stabbed the grimacing man in black with a flash of the knife. As a result, no blood spattered, and even the clothes were not pierced.

Gao Bufan couldn't help being dumbfounded, "Damn it, this is unscientific, the old man doesn't hide a steel plate in his clothes, right?"

Gao Bufan quickly reached out and touched the man in black's chest, but the back of his hand was flicked by the other party. He felt like getting an electric shock instantly, and hurriedly drew back his hands. When he took a closer look, he found that the back of his hand was red and swollen.

"Stinky boy, is it believable now?" The grimacing man in black said coldly. Gao Bufan's face was pale from the pain. Possesses something like a heart-guard.

Only to hear the grimacing man in black say again: "Actually, the old man is still a long way from the indestructible body of the King Kong, but your strength is too weak, and you have a lot of brute force, so you were easily removed more than half of it."

Damn it, Gao Bufan felt hit hard again!
The grimacing man in black snorted coldly: "If you are not convinced, just stab again, the old man will convince you tonight, so you don't have to be suspicious anymore!"

Gao Bufan hastily said: "Your junior dare not accept it, I beg you to teach me the inner family exercises."

The ghost-faced man in black nodded, and said coldly: "Actually, I have been observing you secretly for a long time, and found that your kid's understanding and perseverance are excellent. The exercises should be able to get twice the result with half the effort, otherwise this old man doesn’t intend to pass on the exercises to you.”

Gao Bufan couldn't help but suddenly realized, no wonder he sometimes felt someone peeping in the dark, etc... I had this feeling of being peeped years ago. Could it be that this old man has been secretly observing him for several years?Fuck, this old man is a voyeur!
When Gao Bufan thought that when he was shitting and urinating, the old man might be staring at him in the dark, so he didn't have to worry too much about it. At the same time, he felt a little guilty. The old man wouldn't know that I was a time traveler, would he?

"Listen well, boy, the old master is passing on your cultivation technique today. You must not spread it to the outside world, let alone use it to commit crimes. Otherwise, the old man will take your life." The man in black with a grimace warned sternly.

Gao Bufan said awe-inspiringly: "Your junior can swear to the sky, if you rely on martial arts to commit crimes in the future, you will be hit by five thunderbolts."

The ghost-faced man in black nodded in satisfaction and said: "This exercise is created by the old man by combining the advantages of Buddhism and Taoism. Buddhist exercises generally work from the outside to the inside, which is the so-called cutting tendons and washing the marrow. One can become a Buddha right away, while the Taoist practice works from the inside out, which is the so-called refinement of qi and essence, refining the spirit to return the emptiness, and then nourishing the body with the spirit, and finally achieve Taoism and longevity!"

Gao Bufan frowned and said, "Your junior doesn't understand, besides, is there really anyone in this world who has attained Taoism and longevity?"

The grimace in black said indifferently: "I don't understand because I haven't reached the realm, and I will understand when I reach the realm."

Gao Bufan raised his eyebrows: "Has senior lived forever, or has senior ever seen a person who lived forever?"

　This book is not about cultivating immortals. Martial arts are just an auxiliary embellishment. The struggle for hegemony at the end of the Sui Dynasty is the main line. It involves the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, which will be controlled in the scope of traditional martial arts. If you are interested, you can search for "Three Martial Arts and One School to Exterminate Buddha". This is a real event that happened in history.
