Starting boy Ma Kongqun

Chapter 183 Wudang Mountain

Ma Kongqun went to Wudang this time because a letter was sent to him a few days ago, saying that after more than ten years as the headmaster of Wudang, he felt a little boring, and he planned to pass the throne to his most valued disciple Shi He in the near future, and asked Ma Kongqun to come before him Go to the ceremony.

In addition, he also said that after resigning as the headmaster of Wudang, he would not have to worry too much and planned to take Shen Sanniang and her daughter home. Although they would still have to hide themselves from others, they would be able to spend more time together as a family.

Therefore, this time when Ma Kongqun went to Wudang, he had to take Shen Sanniang and her daughter with them and settle them in a secret residence built by Mu Taoist near Wudang Mountain.

On the second day, Ma Kongqun and his party packed up and entered the pass to go south.

There was no words all the way. When they arrived near Wudang Mountain, they settled Shen Sanniang first, but Shen Xue followed Ma Kongqun to the foot of Wudang Mountain.

Hearing that Ma Kongqun had arrived, Mu Taoist personally came down the mountain to greet him. Before the two parties could speak, a young man in white clothes behind him suddenly shouted, "Look at the sword!" He drew his sword and flew forward.

Both Mu Taoist and Ma Kongqun looked unchanged. Shen Xue, who was following Ma Kongqun, also drew his sword out of its sheath. The sword was shining like lightning to intercept and fight back. The two actually started fighting fiercely at the foot of Wudang Mountain.

Both sides were fighting fast, the two long swords piercing each other, the sword light filled the sky, and the sound of the sword cutting through the wind was heard in the ears.

In a moment, the two had fought nearly three hundred moves.

Suddenly, Shen Xue let out a scream, and the sword light flashed in, stopping firmly just an inch in front of the young man's throat.

The young man laughed helplessly: "Axue, I haven't seen you for a year. I feel that my swordsmanship has improved greatly, but I didn't expect that your improvement will be faster."

Shen Xue sheathed her sword and said seriously: "The Wudang sect's kung fu emphasizes accumulation and progress. In the initial stage of foundation building, progress is slower, and progress becomes faster as you progress to the later stage. Although I am temporarily ahead, in a few years, brother, you will It’s time to come from behind.”

This young man is Shen Xue's brother Shen Hong. He has been taught by Mu Tao Ren as a master and apprentice for several years. He has already earned a name in the world of Wudang Little White Dragon.

Seeing his sister consoling him seriously, Shen Hong's slight depression immediately dissipated and he said with a smile: "Okay, it's not the first time I've been defeated by you, so I won't be seriously discouraged. And from now on, we brothers and sisters can see each other more often. I have It’s time to go sword-fighting with you to get back in the game!”

The corners of Shen Xue's lips raised slightly and she replied with a smile: "I'll be with you anytime."

Then Shen Hong brought his sister to meet Mu Taoist. Because they couldn't reveal their relationship in front of others, one of them called him "Master" and the other called "Uncle".

Mu Taoren saw Ma Kongqun's expression that was half-smiling but not smiling. He knew that Ma Kongqun was secretly laughing at him, and his face turned red at that time.

But when he saw his daughter who had been separated for a year, he saw that not only had she grown taller, but she had become more graceful and graceful, and her martial arts achievements were also extremely impressive. , talking to Shen Xue very kindly and intimately at that time.

After the father, daughter, brother and sister met and talked with each other, Mu Taoist walked up to Ma Kongqun, bowed his hands deeply, and said seriously: "Brother Kongqun, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness!"

Ma Kongqun raised his hand and returned the gift: "This is the duty of a friend. Brother Mu Dao is serious."

The two looked at each other and smiled, understanding each other tacitly.

From being a mutually beneficial acquaintance who each took what they needed, to later experiencing the crisis of Mu Daoren's succession, they have become not only the strongest allies, but also quite congenial friends. Because he wanted to reunite Mu Taoist father, daughter, and husband as soon as possible, Ma Kongqun came earlier than other guests. There were still two days until the passing ceremony.

Mu Taoist arranged for them to stay on Wudang Mountain, and held a separate banquet for Ma Kongqun that night.

The two of them didn't need anyone to wait on them, so they sat opposite each other and chatted while drinking.

Ma Kongqun saw that his old friend's demeanor was now less profound and more free and easy than before, so he smiled and said: "It seems that Brother Dao has really let go of some things."

Mu Taoren sighed: "More than just letting go, I just threw it away with relief! Pindao has been the headmaster of Wudang for more than ten years. Every day, he not only has to deal with many chores inside and outside the door, he also has to set an example and abide by the rules and precepts of the door, even drinking. I have to drink secretly, and I am becoming more and more alienated from a group of old friends. I am not happy at all. I really don’t know why I did it in the first place... Hey, don’t tell me!"

Ma Kongqun had a drink with him, and then said with a smile: "That's how things are in the world. Many things always feel so good when you don't get them, but they feel boring after you get them."

Mu Taoren wiped a handful of the wine stuck on his beard and said with a smile: "So Pindao has never thought of letting Hong'er wade through this muddy water again. Whether it's pain or pleasure, it's all up to Disciple Shi He! And! Shi He has a stable temperament, maybe this headmaster can do a better job than Pindao."

The two of them drank until after midnight.

Mu Taoist put down his wine glass and said: "Every night at midnight, Pindao will teach Shi He alone in the Wudang Golden Palace a few exercises that only the head master can practice. It is expected that it will be completed by tomorrow night. The real work will be done after the throne transfer ceremony. After regaining his freedom, Pindao will get drunk with Brother Kongqun and then rest."

Ma Kongqun looked at the sky outside and said, "I think there may be a thunderstorm tonight. I heard that the Golden Palace can attract thunder and lightning. On thunderstorm nights, there will be thunder, fire, and lightning snakes flying around. Brother Taoist, you have to be careful."

Mu Taoist smiled and said: "This golden palace has a strange structure. There are always thunders outside, but inside it is as peaceful as Mount Tai. Moreover, the martial arts taught by the poor Taoist to Shi He is precisely to realize the power of this 'Thunder and Fire Alchemy Palace' Wonders can be achieved through practice.”

After that, Taoist Mu called someone to clean up the remaining seats, and arranged tea for Ma Kongqun before he left.

Not long after he left, there was a bright electric light that tore through the dark sky, followed by a shocking thunder.

As soon as the thunder moved, the wind started to rise, and soon there were big raindrops hitting my head and face, and in the blink of an eye it became a torrential downpour.

The sound of thunder, rain, and wind enveloped the entire Wudang Mountain, and all other sounds were drowned. Even Ma Kongqun's ability to perceive was limited to a small area around him.

At this moment, Taoist Mu has arrived in the Golden Palace. He is using the thunder and fire that exploded very close to him outside the palace to slowly perform all the palm techniques. While practicing the palm techniques, he uses the skill of "transmitting sound into the secret" to Shi He on the side talked about the secret of palm technique:

"Disciple, please remember that although the 'Taiyi Divine Thunder Palm' evolved from the 'Taiyi Cotton Palm', it is a change of yin and yang, turning the original soft and yin palm into a yang and strong one. With the power of thunder, every time a palm is released, the force of the palm will explode like thunder..."

The words came to an abrupt end because he caught a glimpse of a figure appearing at the palace door from the corner of his eye.

Mu Taoist suddenly turned his head and looked around, only to see a man wearing a bamboo hat and a raincoat walking into the hall first, followed by six others, all dressed in exactly the same attire.
