Cultivation: I can reincarnate in the heavens

No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of kitchen knives.

What's more, it's a foreign gun!

After listening to Master Ma's narration, Xu Xing couldn't help but think of this sentence.

Sir, times have changed!

…

Fang Yun, the governor of Qin Province, was not a good person.

In other words, most Qing court officials are not the losers in movies and TV dramas. On the contrary, these people were able to fight through the imperial examinations, and all of them were really good people.

It's just that under the influence of the general trend of the times, it seems a bit stupid.

Before he joined Wei Jing Academy, he had predicted that Fang Yun would be guarded by a foreign gun team. So even with a master like Master Ma by his side, he was eager to find a way to avoid this tragic death...

"I'm afraid Master Ma also knows that Fang Yun has a foreign gun team under his command..."

"It's just... that's a good opportunity, so I have to go."

Xu Xing suddenly felt some respect for Master Ma.

You know you can't do something, but you do it.

Xiaoyitang, who had been at odds with the Qin provincial government for so many years, could not have known the true nature of Governor Fang Yun's guards.

"Twenty-three brothers went."

"Only fourteen are back."

Master Ma sighed, "I failed to kill the Dog Tartars this time. Instead, I lost nine brothers. I was the one who took the lead. It's a good thing you didn't go. Otherwise, your martial arts skills were mediocre and you would have died if you assassinated Fang Yun." "

"By the way, why are you here today?"

"But the academy has to be handed over to Shu Xiu? We are still short of money..."

Master Ma asked Xu Xing about business.

While talking, he took out another ten taels of silver from a cloth bag on the kang and handed it to Xu Xing, "If you spend a small amount of money in the future, you can go to Sihai Bank to withdraw it. Shopkeeper Wu of the bank is the incense owner of Taoyuan Township. You Just report your name to Xiaoyi Hall and withdraw money there. But you can't be too lavish, every penny is earned by brothers...hard-earned money..., save some money."

The four pillars of Ge Lao Hui are landscapes and fragrant halls.

(Four pillars means four branches.)

Taoyuan fragrance fits the word "fragrant".

Xiaoyi Hall is combined into one hall.

The main hall is Qinfengshan, also called Shantang.

Xu Xing nodded and accepted the money handed over by Master Ma.

This money is not collected randomly.

If he receives the funding from Xiaoyi Hall, then he is a member of Xiaoyi Hall. If he refuses to accept this funding, then he has ulterior motives and is suspected of betraying Xiaoyi Hall.

"Master Ma..."

"I came here today. Firstly, I read in the Guangtong Daily that you failed to assassinate the Tatars. I was worried about the safety of our brothers, so I came over to take a look. Secondly..."

"I recently accidentally saw a martial arts secret book in the library of the academy. This secret book is hidden in the fairy volume of "Taiping Guangji". I saw that it has some wonderful principles, so I gave it to Master Ma for you to take a look at. …”

Xu Xingtian shamelessly made up a bizarre story about the origin of "The Heart of the Rock".

What was a common routine in later generations was nothing more than a rarity at this time in the late Qing Dynasty.

After speaking, he handed Master Ma the excerpt of the Rock's Heart Technique.

After hearing this, Master Ma frowned at first, and then felt relieved, "Maybe when the Wei Jing Academy established the Shanyuan and purchased rare ancient books, someone accidentally sold the ancestral belongings, and you missed it."

"But this technique..."

He carefully read every word of the technique.

"This technique is quite profound. Although it is not as good as my Ziwu Kung Fu, it can complement it."

"This technique..."

He looked hesitant and closed the silk cloth with the exercises written on it.

"Rock Heart Technique" is a martial arts technique. Practicing this technique can refine your essence and cultivate your energy.

Strictly speaking, his "Ziwu Gong" is not a martial arts technique, but a Taoist internal skill.

Collect the inspirations of heaven and earth and practice at two o'clock in the afternoon.

The former is to refine the essence in food, while the latter is to absorb the spiritual energy stored in heaven and earth.

"Master Ma, is there something wrong with this technique?"

Seeing Master Ma's delay in speaking, Xu Xing asked deliberately.

"no."

Master Ma shook his head, "There's nothing wrong with this mental method. It's just that it's too precious. I read it, but it's hard for me to give you a corresponding reward."

"We are all brothers."

"Master Ma, you said that we are all brothers..."

"I only acquired this skill accidentally. I am lucky to get it, but I am destined to lose it."

Xu Xing waved his hand, looking unconcerned.

Anyway, his Rock Heart Technique was something he got for nothing, and it was not a technique passed down from his family. Having another Master Ma to practice it meant nothing to him, and it was a benefit at no cost to him.

On the contrary, after Master Ma, a master, practiced the Rock Mind Technique, he could also take the opportunity to ask for advice.

A matter of mutual benefit!

"That's it!"

"In that case, I accept your kindness."

Master Ma said in a deep voice.

He originally planned to accept Xu Xing as his disciple.

But today, Xu Xing's identity is different.

Is a scholar.

He was in the bedroom just now and heard the conversation between Xu Xing and his buddies outside the door. He knew that Xu Xing had done well in the Wei Jing Academy and had a great chance of getting an honor.

Regardless of whether in the government or the public, or within the palace, the status of scholars with a good reputation is not very low.

He was from a rough background, and it was not appropriate for him to be accepted as a disciple.

"If you can be a scholar..."

"With your background, you may be able to get an opportunity."

Master Ma glanced at Xu Xing and said something enigmatic.

"Master Ma, please elaborate."

"Xu Xing is deeply moved..."

Seeing that Master Ma was about to stop talking about this opportunity, Xu Xing was not someone who waited foolishly, so he quickly bowed to Master Ma and said with a sincere expression.

To put it bluntly, Xu Xing is not optimistic about how long Master Ma can live. Although Master Ma is highly skilled in martial arts and almost escaped from the assassination of Governor Fang Yun this time, "those who are good at swimming will drown in the water, and those who are good at fighting will be killed." The origin of " is not just empty talk.

"this……"

Master Ma was caught off guard.

Ordinary people, after hearing what he said, shouldn't first take the exam to become a scholar...

How could Xu Xing be like this? Ask him directly what the opportunity is.

"This opportunity is nothing."

"My family's passed down exercise is "Ziwu Body Purification Kung Fu". The ancients said: Ziwu and Kanli are combined, which is the best time to practice and rest. This "Ziwu Kung Fu" was passed down from our ancestors."

"The ancestor is one of the seven sons of Quanzhen, the real person of Danyang..."

"The chief of Wei Jing Academy is Liu Guyu, who is the leader of Guan School. Quanzhen Taoism, Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism are three religions integrated into one, and he has always had friendship with the Guan School. If you can pass the examination as a scholar, you can also say that he is As someone from the Guan Xue lineage, I will ask the leader of the Dragon Gate Sect to teach you your true skills..."

Master Ma took a deep look at Xu Xing and said slowly.

The reason why he did not teach Xu Xing's "Ziwu Gong" was because this skill was passed down from family to family and was not permitted by Quanzhen Taoism and could not be taught privately to outsiders, even to disciples.

But his road was blocked, which did not mean that Xu Xing could not obtain the true biography of the Longmen Sect.

"The Seventh Son of Quanzhen?"

"Guan Xue lineage? The true successor of Longmen Sect?"

Xu Xing suddenly had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

He never expected that Master Ma, who seemed to be a rough guy, would have such a connection with Quanzhen Taoism. And Quanzhen Taoism has such origins with Guanxue and Wei Jing Academy...

Yes, Guanzhong looks big, but it is also small.

The Quanzhen Tao is in Zhongnan Mountain.

Wang Chongyang, the founder of Chongyang, was from Xianyang.

Before Wang Chongyang entered Taoism, he was a Jinshi in Qin Province. It seems... normal to have this connection with Guan Xue.
