Chongxu Daoist didn’t answer Ye Qiu directly but asked, ” Master Ye, do you know the real purpose of those masked people who stole from the Scripture Pavilion back then?”
Ye Qiu said, “They came for the martial arts secrets.”
Chongxu Daoist gave Ye Qiu a thumbs up and said, ” Master Ye is really smart and guessed it right away.”
Ye Qiu was speechless.
Such a simple question, who wouldn’t be able to guess?
What he despised the most was that Chongxu Daoist actually gave him a thumbs up and praised him.
So hypocritical.
”Senior, what exactly do you want to say?” Ye Qiu asked.
Chongxu Daoist smiled slightly and said, ” Master Ye, since you guessed the purpose of those people, then guess again, what exactly was the martial arts secret that made them willing to empty the entire Scripture Pavilion?”
Ye Qiu thought for a moment and said, “Could it be the martial arts left by real Zhang?”
“That’s right.” Chongxu Daoist said, “Those people came for the martial arts of our founding masters.”
As everyone knows, our founding master Zhang of Wudang is a martial arts master.
”He created many peerless martial arts such as the Pure Yang Wuji Gong, the Ladder Cloud Soaring, and the Wudang Zhenwu Swordsmanship.”
However, the most powerful martial art of the founding was his self-created Thirteen Forms of Tai Chi.
Tai Chi Thirteen Forms?
Ye Qiu’s heart trembled.
From ancient times to the present, once it comes to Wudang Kung Fu, Tai Chi is something that cannot be bypassed.
Whether it is an ancient storybook or a modern film and television, as long as Wudang appears, Tai Chi will appear.
Therefore, there is a saying in the martial arts world that “without Tai Chi, there is no Wudang.”
It can be seen how great the influence of Tai Chi is.
Daoist Chongxu said: “Tai Chi Thirteen Forms is an internal family boxing method.”
This set of boxing contains the five internal organs and the eight meridians, and there are five steps and eight methods on the outside. It combines the Taoist health-preserving alchemy technique. There are a total of thirteen forms, so it is called Tai Chi Thirteen Postures.
Before creating this set of boxing, Zhang Zhenren visited dozens of sects in the martial arts world and read tens of thousands of martial arts secret books.
Finally, Zhang Zhenren absorbed the strengths of hundreds of martial arts and created the Tai Chi Thirteen Forms.
This set of boxing is rigid with softness, softness with rigidity, and rigidity and softness are contained.
When cultivated to the highest realm, it can achieve the balance of yin and yang and the unity of man and nature.
It is no exaggeration to say that the Tai Chi Thirteen Forms is the treasure of martial arts and the essence of Tai Chi.
Since the establishment of the sect, the Tai Chi Thirteen Forms has been the treasure of Wudang Mountain.
Ye Qiu heard this and roughly understood.
Senior, so the real purpose of those masked people who stole the scripture pavilion back then was for the Tai Chi Thirteen Forms?
Daoist Chongxu nodded: “Yes.”
Ye Qiu asked again: “Did those people steal the Tai Chi Thirteen Forms away?”
Chongxu Taoist shook his head: “No.”
Ye Qiu’s eyes lit up: “So, the Taichi Thirteen Forms are still in Wudang?”
”That’s right.” Chongxu Taoist smiled and said, “As long as Master Ye tells the Old Dao the method of practicing the Ladder Cloud Leap, the Old Dao will show you the boxing manual of the Taichi Thirteen Forms.”
When I was a child, I heard my master say that the Taichi Thirteen Forms contain the mystery of becoming immortal.
” Master Ye, do you want to become immortal?”
”This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You have to seize it~”
Ye Qiu stared at Chongxu Taoist.
For some reason, seeing Chongxu Taoist’s smiling face, he felt that this old cunning man wanted to cheat him again.
However, Ye Qiu couldn’t care so much now. As long as there was a chance to improve his cultivation, he couldn’t miss it.
“Senior, I want to see the boxing manual first,” Ye Qiu said.
”No.” Chongxu Taoist said, ” Master Ye must first tell the Old Dao the method of practicing the Ladder Cloud Leap.”
Senior, if I tell you, what if you don’t show me the boxing manual?
” Master Ye, the Old Dao will not lie to you. You have to believe in my character.”
“Sorry, I don’t see a trace of character in senior.”
Chongxu Taoist: ”???”
The air suddenly became quiet.
The scene was filled with a strange atmosphere.
After a while.
” Master Ye, according to what you said, the Old Dao has no character, right?”
”Yes.”
Chongxu Taoist: ”…”
“Senior, after I read the boxing manual, I will tell you the method of practicing the Ladder Cloud Leap. If I can’t see the boxing manual, then there’s no need to talk about it.” Ye Qiu’s attitude was firm.
The Taoist Chongxu was extremely depressed.
He was the dignified Supervisor of Wudang and the leader of the Taoist sect. How dare an ordinary person bargain with him?
But Ye Qiu was fine, actually bargaining with him.
After hesitating for a while.
The Taoist Chongxu gritted his teeth and said, “Fine, I can let Master Ye read the boxing manual first.”
“However, after you read the boxing manual, you must tell the Old Dao the method of practicing the Ladder Cloud Leap.”
“Let’s put the ugly words up front. If Master Ye tricks me at that time, don’t blame the Old Dao for being impolite.”
“I know Master Ye has a high cultivation base and there are still 100,000 Longmen disciples under his command, but if Master Ye tricks me, then the Old Dao will exhaust all the power of Wudang and spare no expense to keep Master Ye.”
Ye Qiu smiled and said, “Senior, don’t worry. I never play tricks on monkeys and will definitely do what I say.”
“That’s good…” The smile on the face of the Taoist Chongxu suddenly froze: “Wait, who did you say is a monkey?”
“That’s not important. Senior, let’s go and see the boxing manual!”
“ Master Ye, please come with me.”
The Taoist Chongxu led Ye Qiu back to the Scripture Pavilion and dug out a blue floor at the main entrance.
The bluestone floor was about ten inches thick and three feet wide.
On the back was engraved a set of boxing manuals.
“Master Ye, please have a look.” said Taoist Chongxu, pointing to the boxing manual.
“Is this the Thirteen Forms of Tai Chi?” asked Ye Qiu.
“Yes.” Taoist Chongxu nodded with a smile: “Those people thought that by emptying the Scripture Depository, they could find the Thirteen Forms of Tai Chi. Little did they know that the boxing manual was right under their feet.”
Ye Qiu asked: “Isn’t it thirteen forms? Why is there only one form engraved on it?”
Taoist Chongxu said: “The other twelve forms have been lost.”
Damn it!
Ye Qiu wanted to beat up this old Taoist. Fortunately, he asked to see the boxing manual first. Otherwise, he would have been tricked by this old fox again.
“Senior, you’re being too unkind.”
“There are a total of thirteen forms of the boxing manual, but now you’re telling me that the other twelve forms have been lost.”
“Aren’t you cheating me?”
Ye Qiu was very upset.
Taoist Chongxu smiled and said: “Master Ye, don’t be impatient.”
“Although the other twelve forms have been lost, I once heard my grandmaster say that as long as one has enough martial arts talent, one can understand the true meaning of Tai Chi with just one form of the boxing manual.”
“Master Ye, would you like to give it a try?”
Since things have come to this.
Ye Qiu could only give it a try.
“Master Ye, we have an agreement. Whether or not you can understand the true meaning of Tai Chi, you have to tell the Old Dao the method of practicing the Ladder Cloud Leap afterwards.” Taoist Chongxu said with a smile.
“I know.” Ye Qiu waved his hand impatiently.
“Then the Old Dao won’t bother Master Ye.” said Daoist Chongxu, and then turned and left.
Ye Qiu immediately adjusted his state, stared at the boxing manual on the bluestone with both eyes, and began to practice.
