I'm the best catcher in martial arts

Chapter 5: Liancheng Treasures, Famous Teachers and Disciples

Rouyun Temple is located thirty miles west of Jiangling City. It is one of the many branches of Wudang. Although it is the weakest branch of Wudang, it is backed by Jiangling and has strong incense.

The person who passed down Rouyun Guan's lineage was Yin Liting, one of the Seven Heroes of Wudang. Most of the inheritance in the sect was swordsmanship, but also the inner palm skills, and the best was medical skills.

The current headmaster of Rouyunguan is named Ma Zhen. He is a kind-hearted and good old man. He usually gives out porridge and medicine, and practices medicine to save people. He has a very good reputation in Jiangling City.

When Shen Lian arrived at Rouyun Temple, it was just in time for evening classes. Ma Zhen and his junior brother Lu Feiqing were doing evening classes, and Shen Lian could only wait in the reception room.

The two also had a junior brother, Zhang Zhaozhong, who was the most skilled in martial arts among the brothers. In order to pursue power, he rebelled a few years ago and joined the Manchu Qing Dynasty, where he was highly regarded.

After waiting for about half an hour, Ma Zhen and Lu Feiqing arrived hand in hand. After greetings, Shen Lian got straight to the point.

"Two Taoist priests, you must already know what happened in Jingzhou. Do you have any clues?"

Ma Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "I only like to practice Taoism. I don't like practicing martial arts, and I don't like worldly affairs. I really don't know much about this murderous case in Jingzhou City."

"Has anything weird happened recently?"

"Yes, does Shen Captou know about Liancheng's treasure?"

"Liancheng treasure, what is it?"

"The treasure left by Emperor Liang Yuan."

It is called the treasure of Emperor Liang Yuan, but its foundation lies in Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan. It is a disaster caused by Xiao Yan's rebellious behavior.

Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty, was probably the emperor who believed in Buddhism the most since ancient times. He believed in it to the point of obsession.

Xiao Yan once announced that he would fund the construction of ten luxurious temples every year. During his forty-eight years in office, there were 480 temples in the Southern Dynasties and many towers in the mist.

Xiao Yan had sacrificed his life to become a monk many times, and the court officials had to spend hundreds of millions to redeem Xiao Yan from the Buddhist temple.

Of course, Xiao Yan does not really believe in Buddhism. He just believes in the imaginary gods and Buddhas, thinking that in this way he can get rewards from the Buddha and become the "Emperor's Great Bodhisattva".

Bodhidharma once discussed Taoism with Xiao Yan, admonishing Xiao Yan that he was not practicing Buddhism, but falling into the devil's path. Not only would he not become an immortal or a Buddha, but he would fall into the abyss forever.

Xiao Yan was furious and chased Bodhidharma. Bodhidharma did not want to hurt innocent people, so he wasted his time and crossed the Yangtze River alone. This is why there is a saying of "crossing the river with a reed".

Facts have proved that Bodhidharma was right.

Due to the wanton construction of temples and excessive extravagance, the people were miserable. Hou Jing raised his arms and the people gathered to respond. Xiao Yan was eventually starved to death.

After Xiao Yan's death, his descendants established themselves as emperors one after another. Xiao Yi, the king of eastern Hunan, succeeded him in Jiangling and became Emperor Yuan of Liang.

Xiao Yi was good at calligraphy and painting, and liked to accumulate treasures. He served as emperor in Jiangling for three years, and collected hundreds of thousands of volumes of various books, as well as a large number of treasures.

In the third year of Chengsheng's reign, Wei soldiers captured Jiangling. Emperor Yuan of Liang burned all his books and was killed after the city fell. However, no one knows where the treasures he had amassed were hidden.

It is said that decades ago, there was a sect called the Tang Shi Sword Sect. The leader accidentally discovered a treasure and planned to give it to Zhang Shicheng as payment for the rebel army.

In order to keep it secret, the head of the Tang Poetry Sword Sect used his own sword manual as a password and called it "City Linking Technique". Unfortunately, when he was halfway there, the head met with an accident.

The world is turbulent and talented people are emerging in large numbers. What does the Tang Poetry Sword School mean? To this day, perhaps the only ones who remember this sect are the remaining disciples.

Lu Feiqing sighed: "This is the most popular thing in Jiangling City nowadays. It is said that Lord Ling could have been transferred back to the capital a long time ago, but he has always refused to be promoted.

Pindao thought it was strange at first, but now it seems that it was probably because of the Liancheng treasure. Lord Ling might have found clues to the treasure, so he was killed by the gangsters. "

Shen Lian smiled and said: "Tang poetry swordsmanship? This is something that I have some fate with, but it's a pity that I don't have the chance to see it!"

Shen Lian's main weapon is the spear. Under the guidance of his master, he created thirteen marksmanship techniques. The artistic conception of the moves are all derived from poetry. It is a very elegant marksmanship.

Gratitudes and grudges, changes in world affairs, changes in court, the rise and fall of kingdoms, and stories of heroes are all contained in the changes in the marksmanship. Buddhism says that one flower is one world, and Shen Lian's marksmanship is one shot, one world, with endless potential.

It's a pity that most of the people in the world are old and rough, and they only know that Shen Lian's marksmanship is capable of seducing souls and killing people, which is comparable to the book of life and death written by the judge in the underworld, and there are only a few close friends.

After asking about some old things, Shen Lian had a dinner and returned to the county government office to analyze clues.

There are three disciples of the Tang Poetry Sword Sect, or those who know that they are disciples of the Tang Poetry Sword Sect.

"Five Cloud Hands" Wan Zhenshan!

"Land Dragon" Yan Daping!

"Iron rope across the river" Qi Changfa!

In order to obtain Liancheng's treasure, the three of them secretly attacked and plotted to kill their master Mei Niansheng, and obtained the Liancheng sword manual. However, they did not know the secret formula and could not find the method.

Among the brothers, Qi Changfa was the most cunning. He secretly stole the sword manual and lived in seclusion in the countryside to study it carefully.

Wan Zhenshan settled in Jiangling and became a very wealthy man. He had a son and seven disciples, but he only taught swordsmanship and martial arts and did not tell the origin of the sect.

Yan Daping disguised himself as a beggar and searched everywhere. He looked at Qi Changfa today and Wan Zhenshan tomorrow. Unfortunately, he found nothing and wasted a lot of time.

According to Shen Lian's memory, although Mei Niansheng was attacked and plotted, she did not die. She drifted down the river and was rescued by Ding Dian, who was sailing.

Mei Niansheng knew that he was about to die soon, and seeing Ding Dian's magnanimity, generosity and chivalry, he told all the secrets of Liancheng Jue and passed on the Shenzhao Kung to Ding Dian.

Ding Dian fell in love with Ling Tuisi's daughter, but was plotted by Ling Tuisi. He wore the pipa bone and was imprisoned in a dungeon. He was tortured every month and asked about Liancheng Jue.

When Shen Lian took away the treasure, he checked Ding Dian and Ling Shuanghua, but found no trace of Ding Dian.

In the case of Ling Mansion massacre, there was only Ling Tuisi's body at the crime scene, not Ling Shuanghua's body. As for Ding Dian, there was no trace at all.

Although the corpse had decayed, fatal injuries could be identified. Those were indeed knife wounds, but they were definitely not the knife skills that Japanese Japanese pirates were good at using.

A swordsman related to Ling Tuisi?

Could it be the Blood Knife Ancestor?

Shen Lian wrote down the clues he found on paper and analyzed them in detail. At this moment, Lu Jianxing returned to the county government office from Wanfu and opened his mouth to curse a few words.

"What the hell!"

"Brother, what happened?"

"Wan Zhenshan hosted a banquet for me and asked his disciples to perform sword dances to entertain me. His disciples' swordsmanship was full of crooked moves, including his own son!"

"Disciples of the Wan family have always practiced martial arts together. If Wan Gui's swordsmanship is different from others, wouldn't it be obvious to others at a glance? Do you want Wan Zhenshan's face?"

Lu Jianxing sneered: "What a fool! What kind of face does Wan Zhenshan have? Masters from other families only have one hand and two hands. I'm afraid he has a hundred hands!"

Shen Lian looked sarcastic when he heard this: "No wonder Wan Zhenshan did this, it was all taught by his master."

When Mei Niansheng first accepted his disciples, he discovered that the three disciples had evil intentions. When teaching martial arts, they deliberately taught flashy tricks and led the disciples astray.

His disciples can be said to be outstanding.

The swordsmanship taught by Wan Zhenshan to his disciples was all in the wrong order. Qi Changfa was even more ruthless and directly changed the Tang poetry swordsmanship into the corpse swordsmanship. The modification was nonsense.

He doesn't care about his biological son, biological daughter, or biological disciple, they are all just pawns.

Shen Lian only has five words for this situation.

——Famous teachers make great disciples!
