The thousand-mile boat docked in front of a rocky beach, and everyone went ashore. Ahead is a vast valley, surrounded by peaks, with the peaks touching the clouds, making it impossible to walk on, and only the bottom of the valley is still walkable. The bottom of the valley is all shale, with jagged rocks and pines. The big rocks are like hills, and the small ones are no less than ten thousand jun. Among the pine and rocks, there are countless stone figures scattered, as high as several people, carved in detail. Except for their huge size, their emotions, anger, sorrow, and smiles are all the same as those of ordinary people: they sit or stand, squat or run, or frown. They may be thinking hard, looking up to the sky and laughing, playing the cymbals and singing, or playing the pen, drums, and harp. They are really in various shapes and styles, each with its own charm. At a glance, there is no end to them.
Although Liang Xiao was used to strange things, he couldn't help but gasped and asked in surprise: "What is this?" Hua Qingyuan said solemnly: "This is the statue of eight hundred saints, carved from ancient times to the present, recorded in historical records Eight hundred sages, famous generals and strange people..." He pointed to a stone statue with a crown of elegance and an ancient appearance, overlooking the power of the world. "That is Huangdi Xuanyuan." He also pointed to a tall and broad-faced stone statue. The old man with sunken eyes and wielding a medicine hoe said, "That's Shennong Yandi." Then he pointed to an old man with long eyebrows, big ears, and a long beard, riding a green cow, and said, "This is written Li Er, the man who wrote five thousand words of moral truth, turned to an old man in Confucian uniform and said, "That's the literary saint Confucius."
While Liang Xiao was listening and looking, he suddenly realized that the stone statues were not standing still, but seemed to be moving slowly. Although it was not easy to notice, they were like the stars in the sky, moving all the time. While he was talking, the stone statue of the Yellow Emperor was covered by a stone mountain. . Liang Xiao suddenly exclaimed. Hua Murong smiled and said, "Did you see it? It's up to you to guess the reason." Liang Xiao bit his lip, pondered for a moment, then suddenly clapped his hands and said with a smile, "I know." Hua Murong smiled and said, "Oh, come on. Listen." Liang Xiao pointed to the three giant wheels behind him and said, "The principle is the same as that of a thousand-mile ship! The water power drives the giant wheels, and then the bronze arms use some method to push the stone statue!" Hua Murong frowned! Showing surprise, she smiled and said: "Okay, I don't know how smart you are. This time the blind cat caught a dead mouse." Xiaoshuang smiled and said: "Brother Xiao is already very smart. !" After saying that, his cheeks turned slightly red.
Liang Xiao praised him the most, smiled slightly at Xiaoshuang, and asked: "I wonder how the bronze arms push the stone statue?" Hua Qingyuan looked at the sky and said: "This is not easy to understand. We will talk about it later. Let's go in first. It's good for you!" He said to Liang Xiao, "You must follow my lead." Liang Xiao asked curiously: "Why?" Hua Murong said, "Don't ask me, you don't understand." He held his hand. , holding Xiaoshuang in one hand, followed behind Hua Qingyuan. Hua Qingyuan was seen walking straight sometimes, sometimes diagonally, shuttling back and forth between the stone statues and turquoise rocks.
After walking about a hundred steps, Liang Xiao suddenly had a strange thought: "Why do I have to follow him? Don't tell me why. Hum, I just want to see what's weird." He looked at Hua Murong and accidentally broke away from her. Hand, take one step to the left. Hua Murong didn't hold her back, her expression suddenly changed, and she screamed. Liang Xiao was afraid of being chased, so he immediately galloped and ran for a hundred steps. Just as he was about to turn back, he suddenly stepped into the sky. When he lowered his head, he saw that it was an abyss. He was shocked and wanted to stop, but before he thought, his body It also seemed to rise into the sky, with the wind howling in my ears, and white clouds flying in front of my eyes. Looking down, I saw towering mountains and rivers flowing across it. I was like a shooting star, falling from the sky as if flying. The strong wind in the air hit my body, shaking my body. Cold; the chill is just coming, and suddenly we stand in the wind and snow, with the vast fields around, only the snow is dancing and the wind is singing.
Liang Xiao's blood was as cold as ice, and he ran wildly, resisting the cold, and ran an unknown distance. The ground suddenly shook, making a muffled sound like a huge thunder. In an instant, a crack burst out in the ground, and hundreds of feet of flames spurted out. Come out, extremely blazing. Liang Xiao was sweating like rain, his heart was bursting with fear, and he wanted to speak, but his tongue was parched and he couldn't make any sound. The cold and heat made him almost crazy. Suddenly he saw a figure shaking in the distance. He hurried up and saw a man and woman, laughing and talking in the fire, walking side by side. Liang Xiao recognized it clearly, was surprised and happy, and shouted out loud: "Dad, Mom!" Wen Jing and Yu Ling ignored him and just talked and laughed. Liang Xiao cried and screamed, chasing after him wildly, but could never get close.
After chasing for a while, the two men suddenly stopped. Liang Xiao was overjoyed. He grabbed Wen Jing's clothes and burst into tears. He cried twice. He looked up and saw in the haze that the person holding him had a black robe as white as lacquer and a face as white as paper. He couldn't be Xiao Qianjue. ? So happy and frightened at first, Liang Xiao was exhausted mentally and suddenly, he shouted suddenly, his eyes turned black, and he was about to faint. Suddenly he felt a tightness behind his back, and someone dragged him out backwards. The illusion in front of him disappeared, only the turquoise figure stood silently. .
Liang Xiao seemed to have fought thousands of moves with others, and fell to the ground, panting like an ox. Looking back, Hua Xiaoshuang looked at herself with concern on her face. There was no one around, and she couldn't help but wonder: "Is it just you?" Before Hua Xiaoshuang could speak, she suddenly saw the statue of Sima Qian on the left slowly moving westward. , Ban Gu's image moved southward. He was startled and pulled Liang Xiao and said: "Go quickly, go quickly." Liang Xiaofang was surprised. The sound of gold and iron horses suddenly came to his ears. He was confused and saw the mountains of corpses in the sea of blood. The majestic palaces collapsed one after another. In an instant, The moment turned into scorched earth. At this time, his left arm tightened again, and the illusion disappeared. Hua Xiaoshuang said in shock: "It's so dangerous, I almost fell in." She pulled Liang Xiao east and west, walked for about ten steps, sat down at the foot of a hill and said: "This place is in the 'Tai Shi Realm' "You can stay here for only half an hour." Liang Xiao couldn't help but ask: "What's going on?" Hua Xiaoshuang glanced at him and said quietly: "We are trapped in the 'Liangyi Phantom Array'. La!" Liang Xiao looked at the surrounding formations, and suddenly remembered the story his father had told, and suddenly said: "Are these stone statues like the Eight Formation Diagram?" Hua Xiaoshuang nodded: "Not only these stone statues, but there are also a lot of stone statues here. Every plant and grass is cultivated with knowledge. If you feel hot and cold just now, it's because you are stuck in the 'yin and yang realm' with Zou Yan as the hub."
Liang Xiao scratched his head and said, "But Xiaoshuang, why did you come in too?" Hua Xiaoshuang said, "I saw you fell in, and wanted to pull you back, but accidentally, you also fell in. Fortunately, I saw you before After reading the book, I know some changes." She picked up a sharp stone and drew many strange symbols on the ground, writing and erasing them. Liang Xiao looked strange and said: "Xiaoshuang, what are you doing?" Hua Xiaoshuang said: "I am deducing the formation." Liang Xiaoqi said: "Do you still understand these?" Hua Xiaoshuang smiled sweetly and said: "I usually stay at home and do nothing but read. This formation is inseparable from the knowledge in books."

Liang Xiao thought about it and asked again: "Xiaoshuang, why do I see so many weird things?" Hua Xiaoshuang frowned slightly and said: "I also heard what grandma said, I don't know if it is true or false. . I heard that this "two-dimensional phantom array" is called phantom, and it can actually change the human mind and transform all phenomena in the world. If you get deeper into the array, you can see what you are thinking in the array. , the easier it is to have hallucinations, experience darkness, shock, sorrow, joy and sorrow, and even go crazy. I can't explain why, but I heard from grandma that the mystery in the formation is caused by the human heart. If someone has a thought. No, even if you don't understand the formation, you can still pass it. But these people have all their thoughts empty, just like immortals and Buddhas. Even if they pass, there will be no harm."
Liang Xiao thought for a while and said: "Why does Tianji Palace hide in such a hidden place and set up such a formation?" Hua Xiaoshuang said: "I heard from dad that we came here at the end of the Tang Dynasty." She She was speaking and writing without any hesitation. Liang Xiao was secretly amazed and listened to her say: "At that time, many bad guys were fighting in the world. They were fighting for more than a hundred years. They were killing people, setting fires, and burning books. , not only did many people die, but the knowledge left by their predecessors was also destroyed by them."
She imagined the tragic situation at that time, and felt sad in her heart. Her eyes were slightly red, and she said to Liang Xiao: "Brother Xiao, I don't quite understand why those bad people did that?" Liang Xiao originally asked her, but she asked back and was startled. Said: "I think so. At first there were many good people like you, everyone was peaceful and did not quarrel or fight. But suddenly a bad person like me appeared. I bullied you and robbed you of food and clothing. You want to In order to survive, they had no choice but to rob others, and others robbed others, so the world was full of bad people. Later, the bad people found that two bad people were better than one bad person, so they joined you and me, and everyone fought in a group; More and more people were beaten, and then they started fighting, killing people, setting fires, robbing things..." At this point, he couldn't think of anything else bad to do, so he had to stop.
Hua Xiaoshuang thought for a while, shook her head and said, "You are wrong." Liang Xiao said, "Why is it wrong?" Hua Xiaoshuang lowered her head and counted a few strokes, and said, "I will not rob someone or kill someone." Liang Xiao sneered. "If you don't rob others, you will only starve to death, freeze to death, or be killed!" Hua Xiaoshuang blurted out: "I won't die." She took Liang Xiao's hand and said seriously: "Xiao My brother is not a bad person." Liang Xiao pouted and said: "I will be a bad person! If you are a good person, you will be bullied by others. I have always bullied others." Hua Xiaoshuang raised her thin eyebrows and suddenly raised her eyebrows. She held her hand and begged softly: "Brother Xiao, I don't want you to be a bad person! Don't be a bad person, okay?" Liang Xiao was upset by what she said, but he had no choice but to say: "Then I will also freeze to death and starve to death. "Hua Xiaoshuang said: "We will die together. I will never do anything bad."
Liang Xiao was speechless. When Hua Xiaoshuang saw that he was silent, she said, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Brother Xiao will never be a bad person anyway." Liang Xiao's face became hot, and he didn't know how to refute her, so Hua Xiaoshuang said again: " Let's continue talking about our origins. But when the world was in chaos, our ancestor from Tianji Palace was a very knowledgeable person. When he saw the chaos in the world, he decided to collect all the classics and hide them in one place. Xiao interjected: "In the end, he hid in Tianji Palace?"
Hua Xiaoshuang smiled and said: "There was no Tianji Palace at that time. There was only Qiyue Valley, and the valley was full of big bare rocks. That ancestor was not only good at learning, but also very powerful in martial arts. He took his family generals and fought against the bad guys. During the war, he collected all kinds of books, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and finally moved them to Qiyue Valley. However, this matter was not finished until the death of this ancestor, and his son continued to do it. At that time, the world was divided into ten countries. In several countries, the bad guys are fighting more and more fiercely. In order to save books from the war, many of us died." When she said this, she was about to cry, "Until the end, that...that ancestor's. My son... was also killed by bad guys." She shed tears as she spoke, and Liang Xiao patted her on the shoulder. Hua Xiaoshuang couldn't bear it anymore and fell on his lap and cried. Liang Xiao was at a loss and pressed her shoulder, but didn't know how to persuade her.
After crying for a while, Hua Xiaoshuang raised her head, wiped away her tears, and said sheepishly: "I have been a crybaby since I was a child. When I hear this kind of thing, I want to cry. Brother Xiao, don't laugh at me." Liang Xiaoxin I thought: "I should really laugh at her." I laughed dryly, but I only laughed twice. For some reason, I couldn't laugh anymore.
Hua Xiaoshuang continued: "In the third generation of ancestors, he was a very smart man. While continuing to collect books, he studied the knowledge in them and learned many useful things. In order to make the books safer, he designed this He made plans for the formation and built it with the descendants of his generals; in order to save manpower, he also built wooden oxen and flowing horses, and thousands-mile boats to transport wood and stones. It wasn't until three hundred years ago that the Tianji Tricycle was completed, and another hundred years passed before the Tianji Palace was established." Xiaoshuang said happily, with a pair of pear expressions on her face. Wu'er lowered his head, counted two steps, and said with a smile, "Okay, Brother Xiao, I figured it out."
She jumped up, pulled Liang Xiao, walked seven steps to the left, eight steps to the right, walked around the ten stone statues, stopped, counted on the ground again, and said: "This is the Xuanxuan with Fuxi as the hub." "Yi Jing" is a very important place in the formation. Brother Xiao, please hold me tight!" Liang Xiao had suffered enough and held her little hand tightly after hearing this. The two of them walked side by side around an ancient pine tree that was hugged by three people. After taking two steps, a breeze suddenly hit their faces. Xiaoshuang was shocked and said, "No, this is Sunda Eye. I made a mistake." She pulled Liang Xiao. After running three steps to the left, she suddenly saw the statue of King Wen and the statue of Confucius approaching each other. Xiaoshuang stamped her foot and shouted: "Oh no, everything has changed now." There was a cry in her words. It turns out that this stone statue is constantly moving. If you make a wrong step, the formation will completely change. You have to deduce it again based on the stone statue in front of you, otherwise you will inevitably fall deeper and deeper.
When Xiaoshuang saw the sunset and the sky getting dark, she covered her face and cried loudly: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault. If I hadn't been so talented, I wouldn't be trapped here." Liang Xiao said hurriedly: "Don't worry, Xiaoshuang. Uncle Hua will definitely come to us." But she thought in her heart: "Actually, it's my fault. If I hadn't barged in, you wouldn't have followed me in." Feeling annoyed and trying to persuade her, Xiaoshuang wiped away her tears and shook her head. Said: "This stone circle is dozens of miles in radius, and it changes strangely. I really don't know where I am trapped now. Even grandma doesn't know my location, so she doesn't dare to break in."

The two of them had nothing to do and sat there for a while. Suddenly, the wind blew in the formation and howled bitterly. Xiaoshuang's body suddenly started to tremble and she kept coughing. Liang Xiao asked: "Are you cold?" Xiaoshuang said "um" and her teeth "popped". Liang Xiao thought: "Although the wind is a bit strong, it is not so cold." He stretched out his arms to hug her, but felt that Xiaoshuang's body was getting colder and colder. He was shocked, and when he checked her breathing again, he found that there was nothing coming in or out. , couldn't help but asked in surprise: "What's wrong with you?" Xiaoshuang spat out a few words through her teeth: "There is... medicine in my arms." Hearing this, Liang Xiao suddenly remembered what happened in Tianji Beefu that day, and hurriedly stretched out his hand When he entered her arms, he touched a jade bottle and poured out a pill. The color was light golden, just like that day, so he drank it for her. Xiaoshuang took a breath, took the medicine bottle, and took another pill.
Liang Xiao asked curiously: "What is the name of this medicine?" Xiaoshuang said weakly: "This is the Golden Wind Jade Dew Pill that Grandpa Wu gave me." Liang Xiao frowned and said: "Xiaoshuang, you...were you sick just now? ...It was so scary just now." Xiaoshuang forced a smile and said, "It's okay. I've been taking this pill since I remembered it. I've been taking it for a while now. I'll be fine after taking the medicine." Suddenly I heard the sound of a flute coming from a very far distance. It was vague but not noticeable, and a flash of inspiration came to my mind. I said happily: "You are just doing calculations, and you have confused me. Although you can't calculate clearly, you can't figure it out clearly." Can't you shout?" Xiaoshuang was startled and said, "Yeah, I'm so stupid. As long as I shout loudly, my father and aunt will hear me sooner or later."
Liang Xiao stood up and whistled loudly. Although he was young and weak, he had been whistling for a long time. The flute player could vaguely hear it. The sound of the flute was sonorous and exciting, and he was very happy. After a while, I heard the sound of piercing the sky, and a man came calmly playing a jade flute. I saw that he had a jade face, a long body, and a long beard, but he was the old man in white, Zuo Yuan, on the Mountain of Complainants. Xiaoshuang shouted happily: "Eunuch Yuan!" Zuo Yuan heard her weak voice and frowned: "Are you sick again?" Xiaoshuang nodded. Zuo Yuan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly picked up Xiaoshuang, turned around and left without even looking at Liang Xiao. Liang Xiao hurriedly followed, but Zuo Yuan's movement was so fast that he disappeared in a few seconds. Liang Xiao couldn't help being stunned and thought to himself: "Did this old man throw me away on purpose?" He was extremely angry, but he still Knowing that this formation was weird, he didn't dare to wander around and stayed in the same place alone. After a while, no one came, so I couldn't help but wonder: "Did Uncle Hua and the others forget about me? Or maybe the old man in white clothes hated me and deliberately left me here to starve to death, even if he didn't starve to death." , I'm going to be suffocated to death!" In an instant, I couldn't help but squat on the ground and burst into tears.
After crying for a while, he felt better. Liang Xiao wiped away his tears and was about to get up. Suddenly he saw a figure shaking on the ground. He was startled and shouted: "Who?" But the man was motionless. Liang Xiao raised his head As soon as I took a look, I couldn't help but laugh. It turned out that the slanting moon was embedded between the two peaks, and its brilliance flickered over the stone statues, leaving jagged shadows on the ground. Liang Xiao looked at the stone statue and then at the shadow: "I don't know who carved this stone statue, it's just like the real thing."
I saw those stone statues moving continuously, and the moonlight projection kept spinning like a revolving lantern. Liang Xiaoxian was extremely bored, and squatted down to watch. He saw a shadow holding a scroll, raising his arms sideways, as if reciting a poem; not long after, He moved away again, and the second shadow appeared in front of him again, with his hands moving forward and back, as if he was walking; after a while, the third shadow appeared in front of him again, but he was waving his hands and raising his feet, stroking his fingers sideways. When Liang Xiao saw this, he suddenly felt blessed. The three shadows flashed in his mind and were linked together in an instant.
Liang Xiao jumped up and screamed: "Isn't this a martial arts move?" Thinking of this, he looked at the other stone statues and suddenly realized: It turns out that every stone statue raises its hands and feet, and when it is tilted down, there is something hidden in it. Extremely subtle boxing principles, when connected together, become martial arts. Liang Xiao tried to figure out a few moves, but he felt that they were subtle and mysterious, and extremely powerful. He was extremely surprised for a moment.
It turns out that these eight hundred stone statues are a huge mystery left by the predecessors. They have stood here for many years. It is only today that no one has figured out the mystery. Two hundred years ago, the Tianji Palace went through hundreds of calamities, and finally passed down to the seventh generation. A martial arts prodigy named Hua Liushui emerged. At the age of seventeen, he became the number one master in the Tianji Palace. At the age of thirty, looking at the world, he had already Hard to find an opponent. It was also in his generation that the martial arts of Tianji Palace became its own. In terms of martial arts alone, this person can be said to be the leading master in Tianji Palace in the past five hundred years.
Tianji Palace takes protecting the classics as its mission in troubled times. For the people in the palace, martial arts are of course indispensable, but collecting classics and building the "Liangyi Phantom Formation" are the most important. When Hua Liushui was thirty years old, he had already finished digging mountains and rivers, building wheels and planting trees. According to the drawings, it was time to connect the organs and set up movable stone pillars.
Hua Liushui was superb in martial arts, but none of the disciples in the palace could succeed in his legacy. He didn't say anything, but he felt extremely regretful in his heart. When he saw the stone pillars being erected, he suddenly saw a strange image, and decided to carve the stone pillars into eight hundred sages. He also carved the most powerful martial arts in his life into the stone statues. He just wanted to see what happened later. Is there anyone among the people who can see the mystery? If he can figure it out, his understanding should be not inferior to his own, or he should be able to inherit his own mantle.
Carving these eight hundred stone statues completely exhausted this great master's lifetime efforts. When it was completed, Hua Liushui was already very old, but when he saw that his descendants were either studying mathematics or immersed themselves in work, for decades, no one could see the secret in the statue. The old man couldn't help but feel discouraged. But he was a very proud man. Since no one had discovered it, he refused to reveal it. He simply took the secret into the coffin. Before he died, he only said one sentence: "It is easy to set up a riddle but difficult to solve it. If future generations can pry into it, To tell you the truth, if you don't have extraordinary talent, you will have extraordinary blessings."
The descendants were confused and thought he was gibbering before his death, but didn't take it to heart. It is true that these eight hundred stone statues are not very strange when viewed individually. The postures of several statues must be linked together to become martial arts; moreover, because the stone statues are constantly rotating with the "Liangyi Phantom Formation", everyone is focusing on studying the formation. He did not think about martial arts when calculating the position of the stone statues. Therefore, for hundreds of years, no one discovered the secrets of the stone statues.
Liang Xiao didn't understand the formation method at first. In addition, in order to take revenge these days, all he could think about was martial arts. Secondly, he got the opportunity of Yueying and understood the key points. So he knew everything about it. Following this method, he saw that there were stone statues everywhere. The wonderful martial arts can't help but make me happy and throw all my worries out of the sky. Due to the continuous operation of the "Two Instruments Phantom Array", the eight hundred stone statues flowed past him like water, like a vivid treasure house of martial arts, allowing him to understand one by one.

Practicing in this way was like flying arrows, and before he knew it, it was noon the next day. Liang Xiao concentrated on his martial arts and had no worries. Although he could not leave the formation and was not confused by the stone formation, he felt hungry, so he used the move "Hanguan Hua". "Hu", following the posture of Laozi riding a green bull, he held his chest with one hand and supported the ground with the other, and sat for a moment; then he extended his waist and kicked his legs in the posture of "Guangchengzi kicking the alchemy furnace upside down"; then stretched his arms, and successively made "Mo Zhai" "Building Ladders", "Luban Joists"; then squatting forward and pushing, turning into "Liezi Moves Mountains", while curling up the tongue in the mouth without spitting out, which is "Han Fei's tongue-tied"; finally imitating "Meng Ke's Courage", straightening Keep your chest in and your belly in, and stand with your head held high. You have the courage to go there despite thousands of people. This section of the "Great Sage's Heart Sutra" is similar to the Taoist "Eight Sections of Brocade", but it is more brilliant than it is.
Liang Xiao repeated the injection several times and felt that his cheeks were full of fluids, his bones were full, his true energy was flowing like pearls in his meridians, and his feeling of hunger gradually disappeared. During practice, I suddenly heard the sound of footsteps and looked back, only to see Zuo Yuan walking over with a smile. Seeing Liang Xiao looking back, he was slightly startled: "He can actually hear my footsteps?" Then he thought again: "I'm so sorry. You're overthinking it, it's obviously just a coincidence." Little did he know that Liang Xiao was practicing his mental skills at this time and was in the realm of Tongxuan. He could feel the wind and grass within a foot.
When Liang Xiao saw that it was him, he stopped and looked at him coldly. Zuo Yuan originally thought that he would cry with joy and inevitably plead with him. Unexpectedly, Liang Xiao was so cold, which was unexpected. He was stunned, frowned and said: "Little guy, do you want me to take you out?" Liang Xiao hated him for leaving him in the stone array last night, and pouted: "I Don't go out!" Zuo Yuan couldn't help but feel angry, and thought: "While there is no one here, I can force this kid to tell me what he has to do with Xiao Qianjue." Suddenly he reached out and grabbed Liang Xiao's shoulder. Liang Xiao heard the news and used the move "The First Emperor's Whip", sweeping with his backhand. Suddenly, his fingertips were only half an inch away from the old man's waist. Zuo Yuan saw that this move was so fast and powerful that it was unbelievable. In surprise, he waved his jade flute and struck Liang Xiao's arm obliquely. His right claw was still holding his shoulder. Liang Xiao suddenly felt like he was drunk. He staggered two steps and escaped from his claws. His arm turned into a chop. This move was "Slashing the Snake with Red Essence", which was taken from the allusion of Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, who killed the white snake while drunk. It seemed like his steps were vain. , but actually hides murderous intent.
Zuo Yuan's knowledge was so great that he flicked his jade flute in the wind and pointed at Liang Xiao's pulse gate. Liang Xiao's eyes widened, and he opened his mouth to shout. As he shouted, he jumped up like a war horse, danced with his palms in front of him, kicked diagonally with his toes, and performed the "Martial King's Swing" move. Zuo Yuan saw that he had a small face, pretending to be angry, which was very funny, but his movements and kicks were very subtle, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "Xiao Qianjue's martial arts is famous for its weirdness, how can it be like this?" The most powerful and powerful way to defeat an enemy with thousands of troops?" The more he fought, the more confused he became. Liang Xiao then shouted and shouted, "Shen Nong wields a hoe", "Xuanyuan ascends the mountain", "Yao conquers the world", "King Yu opens the mountain", "Shun dances with relatives", "Shang Tang prays for rain", and "retreats to three houses" , "Aspiring to the Central Plains", a series of eight moves, all of which are skills in the "Emperor Realm". It is really a combination of hardness and softness, unpredictable advancement and retreat, and has the potential to embrace the world and swallow up the heaven and earth.
Zuo Yuan relied on his status and didn't want to be serious with the child, so he didn't use his inner strength. Unexpectedly, he still couldn't hold Liang Xiao after using eight moves in a row. However, the boy became more and more courageous as he fought, and he kept coming up with strange moves, which made him anxious. Standing up, he suddenly opened Liang Xiao's "Taizong Ding Tang" with one hand, inserted the jade flute back to his waist with the other hand, and used the "Pan Feather Palm" all the way. His palms rose like feathers and fell like Mount Tai. Liang Xiao took two moves, then took ten steps back and was forced under a huge rock. He hurriedly used a move "Sun Quan kills the tiger", which showed his bravery and counterattacked against the trend. However, he was not strong enough and was forced back by the opponent's palm before the move was launched. Zuo Yuan sneered, waved his right palm, and landed lightly towards him. Above Liang Xiao's head, at this moment, someone suddenly heard someone shouting: "Mr. Zuo, please show mercy!" Zuo Yuan frowned slightly, retracted his palms and stepped back. Liang Xiao opened his eyes and looked, only to see Hua Qingyuan standing in the distance, and said happily: "Uncle Hua, why did you come here? You made me get beaten up!" Hua Qingyuan glanced at Zuo Yuan, shook his head and said, "This The formation is huge, and you are running around without a head. It will be difficult to find you!" Liang Xiao flattened his lips and pointed at Zuo Yuan: "He found me clearly last night, but deliberately didn't take me out." Zuo Yuan's teeth started to itch. He sneered and said: "Nonsense, Shuangya was sick last night. I was in a hurry to take her out of the battle, so I forgot about you." But in his heart, he thought: "You are the fault of this kid. Of course I want you to suffer." "
Liang Xiao said: "Then why didn't you come to save me later? You clearly meant to harm me." Zuo Yuan said calmly: "This stone formation is changing all the time. After I leave the formation, if I want to find you again, I have to start all over again." He After a pause, he said, "Besides, how come you didn't say a word when I used my flute to look for you several times just now?" Hua Qingyuan nodded and said, "Not bad!" Liang Xiao thought to himself, "It seems that they are looking for me. It's probably true." I was fascinated by the stone statue and didn't hear it." After thinking about it, his doubts disappeared and he lowered his head. But he was still dissatisfied with the old man. He pulled Hua Qingyuan by the corner of his clothes and said, "Uncle Hua, I will only go with you, not with this old man, lest he cause me to go astray again." Hua Qingyuan saw that he was so stingy. , I couldn't help but laugh.
The three of them walked side by side, Zuo Yuan suddenly said: "Little boy, what kind of kung fu did you use just now?" When Liang Xiao heard this, he suddenly realized that Zuo Yuan didn't know the secret of the stone statue, and thought to himself: "You old man is not a good person. I won't tell you." He pursed his lips and pretended not to hear. Zuo Yuan was bored, his face turned dark, and he thought that the martial arts used by Liang Xiao were of the same lineage as his own. Although his internal strength was insufficient, his power could not be underestimated, and he couldn't help but feel puzzled.
The three of them walked seven or eight miles in the stone formation, with no end in sight. Liang Xiao was secretly surprised: "This formation is really huge and scary. If you get lost, it will be difficult to find." Thinking of the hardships he suffered before, he was really frightened and held on tightly. Hua Qingyuan's clothes no longer dared to take even half a step.
Halfway through, Zuo Yuan went northeast without saying a word. Seeing that he was not here, Liang Xiao felt much more at ease. He chirped and asked Hua Qingyuan about the mystery of this stone formation. However, the "Liangyi Huanchen Formation" condensed the efforts of seven generations of the Hua family. The reason was so subtle that Hua Qingyuan could not understand it for a moment. , and I was afraid that my mind would be disturbed and I would make a mistake, so I had to talk about it later. Liang Xiao felt resentful in his heart. He originally wanted to tell Hua Qingyuan the secret of the stone statue, but then he thought: "Don't tell me now. I will practice it in the future, and then I will surprise him by using it." Thinking about it, a smile appeared on his face. Hua Qingyuan felt strange when he saw him laughing for no reason, but he was kind-hearted and just smiled back without asking any questions.

After walking for another three miles, we finally came out of battle. Liang Xiao took a closer look and saw thousands of cliffs ahead, hugging a valley with a radius of dozens of miles. Several springs merged into a clear stream, and the clear stream was connected to two small lakes. There were peanut trees on the lakeside, and looming Attic cornices. Compared with the majestic scenes outside the valley, the inside of the valley is a bit dull. There is only a high platform rising from the ground by the lake, with many strange things standing up, down, left and right.
Hua Qingyuan saw that Liang Xiao was very curious, so he took him to the high platform and said with a smile: "This is called the 'Lingtai'." Pointing to a strange ball driven by water power, "This is the armillary sphere, which can measure the movement of stars in the sky. " He also pointed to an urn-shaped bronze vessel with eight dragons holding beads and eight bronze toads underneath. "This is a seismograph, which can detect landslides, tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanoes. The triangular copper frame on the left is a measuring ruler. It can measure the height of mountains, and the cylinder on the right is called Dinghai Needle, which can detect the depth of rivers and seas. If used in conjunction with the wave meter, it can predict floods and droughts from the flow of water." Hua Qingyuan pointed to all kinds of strange instruments. , explained to Liang Xiao one by one, there are many interesting things in it, such as the Persian water clock that chimes once every half hour and is accompanied by the singing and dancing of the little silver man, and the crystal ball filled with mercury, with numbers engraved on it. Hua Qingyuan called it the "yin and yang instrument", which can know the cold and heat.
This "spiritual platform" has truly gathered the wisdom of countless wise men and craftsmen throughout the ages. What Liang Xiao saw with his eyes and heard with his ears was beyond imagination. He was so impressed that he couldn't help but jump to sit on the copper chariot used by Huang Di to destroy Chi You. Every time the compass is adjusted, it can move forward several feet on its own. The arms of the bronze figure on the right are always far away from the direction of the compass, while the bronze figure on the left is beating the drum with both hands, making no sound.
Liang Xiao played for a while, jumped out of the car, suddenly felt naughty, and jumped onto the armillary sphere that was as tall as a person. There is a celestial sphere in the armillary sphere, with pictures of stars engraved on it. Each star corresponds to the stars in the sky. Liang Xiao stepped on the pillar with one foot and hit the celestial sphere with one foot. The celestial sphere rotated rapidly, and the stars suddenly lost their position.
Hua Qingyuan was unable to stop him and was shocked. Suddenly he heard a sharp shout and a figure flew from the stage like flying. He grabbed Liang Xiao's hand and threw him to the ground so hard that stars burst out in his eyes. When he got up and took a look, he saw an old man with yellow robes and white hair and thin cheeks, glaring at him angrily. Liang Xiao got up angrily and punched the old man's chest. Hua Qingyuan stretched out his hand to seal his fist and said respectfully to the man: "Old Ming, it's all my fault! Don't blame him. "
The old man in yellow robe snorted, without even looking at him. He looked at Liang Xiao and said, "Who are you? How dare you mess up my armillary sphere? Humph! If we don't make things right again, don't even think about it anymore!" Liang Xiao felt a faint pain in his back and was angry. He said: "I won't get back on good terms again!" The old man in yellow robe's eyes flashed, and he stretched out his hand to pull Liang Xiao over. Before Liang Xiao could struggle, he was lifted high by the old man in yellow robe, and said sternly: "If If you don't make things right again, I will throw you away."
The spiritual platform is about ten feet high. If the old man in yellow robe throws it vigorously, ten Liang Xiao will die on the spot. But this boy was born stubborn, and he acted like he would rather die than give in, shouting: "It's not right, just throw it away if you have the guts." Hua Qingyuan knew that the old man would follow through on his words, and said in a panic: "Mr. Ming, this kid is naughty. , You don't want to be acquainted with him, Qingyuan will take care of the matter of the armillary sphere."
Liang Xiao shouted: "Uncle Hua, why are you being so condescending to the old man?" Hua Qingyuan couldn't tell whether to laugh or cry, but he held his breath and concentrated, not daring to raise his head or lower his hands, thinking to himself: "You kid, I'm not even here It's for you." The old man in yellow robe glanced sideways at Hua Qingyuan and sneered: "You are getting more and more outrageous. You actually brought an outsider and made a mess on the altar. Humph, if you become the master of the Palace of Heavenly Secrets. I'm afraid I'll die in your hands!"
Hua Qingyuan's face turned red and he murmured: "Mr. Ming...Ming Lao taught you the right lesson." The old man in yellow robe looked at him coldly, with contempt, and threw Liang Xiao aside, with his big sleeves fluttering and his head raised. And go. Liang Xiao got up and wanted to catch up, but saw the yellow figure disappearing among the green trees and red flowers as fast as lightning. He couldn't help but stamp his feet and said: "Uncle Hua, why don't you stop him? I want to settle the score with him." Hua Qing Yuan smiled bitterly and said: "That's all, this old gentleman is extremely skilled in martial arts. Even if it's you, I can't beat him."
Liang Xiao snorted: "The move he used to catch me just now was a bit faster, but I have a way to defeat him." As he said this, he swung his fist at the wrong step, leaned back, and held his hands in the shape of a flower. It was a move. "Zhuang Zhou dreamed of butterflies", then turned upside down, jumped in the air, and turned into "roosters and dogs ascending to the sky". This trick was taken from an anecdote about Liu An, King of Huainan in the Han Dynasty. In mid-air, Liang Xiao suddenly swung his feet and kicked him backwards, slashing diagonally with his palms, but it was a move called "Xu Shen Slays the Dragon". Hua Qingyuan looked at the two moves and felt that the changes were wonderful. Sure enough, he was able to restrain the old man's technique. The counterattack on the third move was even more fierce. He couldn't help but feel surprised. When Liang Xiao landed, he asked: "Since you know how to break the technique, Why can't you resist?"
Liang Xiao was stunned, scratched his head and muttered: "This... the old man shot too fast, I couldn't turn my head, and I couldn't move my hands." Hua Qingyuan said with a smile: "That's it! As the saying goes, one is fast and three is slow. No matter how powerful your moves are, you don't have the same skill; as long as the opponent is faster than you, you have no chance to make a move." Liang Xiao said: "Then how can you become faster?" Hua Qingyuan said: "The only way is to practice hard. When you reach a certain level, you will naturally become more familiar with it, and the speed will depend on your heart." Liang Xiao remained silent, secretly determined to practice the kung fu well, and next time he would grab the old man and smash his butt into eight pieces.
That's what he thought, but after all this trouble, Liang Xiao lost interest and had no intention of making any more troubles. He followed Hua Qingyuan down to the spiritual platform. The two walked through a forest, and saw green willows ahead, surrounded by Lianyunjia House, with twists and turns of pink walls that stretched for several miles; passing through a sun gate, the fragrance hit their nostrils, their eyes were filled with purple, and there were bees and butterflies among the flowers. , chasing each other gracefully.
The two passed through two waterside pavilions, and occasionally met the accompanying maids. They all greeted Hua Qingyuan with a smile, and there was no distinction between master and slave. Liang Xiao was envious in his heart: "Everyone likes Uncle Hua. If only I were half as good as him." Temper, that's good." The two approached a moon door, but saw a couplet engraved on the door. On a whim, Liang Xiao read: "Zhen... vulgar, um, what are the words in the middle? He looked at the stone pillar on the left and frowned, "Tiao... Xin, um, doesn't this person know how to write?"

Hua Qingyuan held back his laughter and said: "Xiao'er, not everyone can write these two lines in cursive script. When connected together, it reads 'True water washes away the mundane world, and the pure sound cleanses the ordinary heart'. Well, with the words arranged horizontally, you Do you recognize it?" Liang Xiao glanced at it and said, "Xinshuimu..." He knew that he must admit his mistake, his face turned red and he felt very ashamed.
Hua Qingyuan sighed: "This is read as Qin Xin Shui Pavilion." Liang Xiao looked at it carefully and felt that these words were open and closed, completely unrestricted, and actually suited his taste, so he pointed to the couplet under the couplet. After signing the signature, he read word by word: "The Lost Soul is Born in a Drinking Book." Hua Qingyuan smiled and said: "This time I read it roughly correctly, but it is not a lost soul, it is a downfall, and it is not a drinking book, but a drunken book." Liang Xiao He said with a proud smile: "Being dejected, drinking and reading are not all the same." Hua Qingyuan smiled, and suddenly heard the sound of a piano coming from the door, he said no more, and walked into the Moon Gate with Liang Xiao in his arms.
Not far away, we arrived at the end of the waterside pavilion. A purple and gold incense burner was filled with white gas, and the air was filled with the fragrance of ambergris. A woman in silk clothes sits cross-legged, with hands as delicate as snow, playing the Yao Qin. To the left of the woman stands Hua Murong, while Hua Xiaoshuang is nestled in the arms of a beautiful woman in blue. When everyone saw Liang Xiao, they all smiled and said nothing.
Liang Xiao saw that the woman who played the harp was only in her thirties. Her face was like ice and snow, and her eyes were like autumn water. She was elegant and beautiful, and could be called a national beauty. Although her clothes were simple, she had an aura of grace and luxury all over her body, which was heart-wrenching.
At the beginning, the sound of the piano was subtle and erratic, like a hibiscus weeping dew or a fragrant orchid smiling, which touched people's hearts inadvertently. When Liang Xiao saw Hua Xiaoshuang smiling at him, he was about to say hello when he suddenly heard the sound of the piano rising, like a thousand-foot cliff, unreachable and dangerous. , Liang Xiao was shocked when he heard it. The beautiful woman in blue frowned slightly and covered Xiao Shuang's ears. But when I heard the sound of the piano rising higher and higher, it became the sound of clear feathers, reaching into the clouds, and it was difficult to reach it. Liang Xiao's heartstrings also tightened. Suddenly, the sound of the piano fell again, as if it had fallen from the peak of Qianxun into the deep valley of thousands of feet. Liang Xiao's heart fell with it, and he suddenly became confused between the ups and downs.
The sound of the piano lingered at a low level for a while; then it gradually rose higher. At first it sounded like rain hitting the flower forest, and gradually the sound of swords and guns emerged. Later, the sound of the piano became more intense, like the Kunlun jade breaking into pieces, thunderbolts blocking the sky, and there was a faint hint of anger. Meaning, Liang Xiao could only hear his blood rushing and his heart beating faster. At this moment, the sound of the piano suddenly relaxed and then became soothing, like a longing woman groaning, and the children saying goodbye. There was an indescribable sadness and desolation. ; After chanting and vibrating like this for a long time, the music finally ended with no sound. At this time, everyone suddenly discovered that without realizing it, all six strings had been broken.
The woman in silk clothes stared blankly at the broken string for a long time, and thought: "Li Chou Yin, Li Chou Yin, playing it back and forth, it's just a broken heart after all." There was a pain in her chest, she pushed the Yao Qin away, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Liang Xiao already there Tears streaming down my face. He couldn't help but let out a soft "Eh" and thought, "Can he understand it at such a young age?"
Everyone was surprised when they saw Liang Xiao crying so sadly. Hua Murong said: "Why are you crying?" Liang Xiao was shocked when he heard the sound, and hurriedly wiped his tears and protested: "Who is crying? I...I have sand in my eyes... ..." Hua Murong laughed in her heart and said to him, "This is not the way to lie. Everyone here saw you crying." Liang Xiao became angry and scolded: "What if you cry?" Mourning!" Hua Murong was furious and raised his pink fist. The woman in pure clothes smiled and waved her hand, and Hua Murong had no choice but to put down her hand and glared at Liang Xiao.
The woman in pure clothes stared at Liang Xiao and said with a smile: "Is the brother Xiao that Xiao Shuang mentioned is you?" Liang Xiao glanced at Xiao Shuang and nodded. The woman in pure clothing waved to him and said, "Come here." Liang Xiao saw that she looked friendly and no one stopped him, so he walked forward. Unexpectedly, the woman in pure clothing suddenly stuck out her right hand, like a big jade-colored butterfly, and flicked it. Go to the Quchi point on his elbow. Liang Xiao didn't have time to think about it, so he used the "Ban Zi Jue" in Ruyi Huan Mo's hand, turned his hand and fingers, and flicked towards the woman's veins. Xiao Qianjue once used this move to blind Yun Wancheng's eyes. Although Liang Xiao's skills are shallow, his moves are exquisite and should not be underestimated.
The woman in silk clothes smiled slightly, her hands were like butterflies piercing flowers, passing by Liang Xiao's fingers, and her two snow-white fingers gently pinched Liang Xiao's "Shaoyuan" point. Liang Xiao's right hand hurriedly came to help and used the "Sealing Zi Jue". He separated the two fingers and used the "Hook Zi Jue" with his left hand. The five fingers were like a hoe, hooking the woman's "Taiye" acupoint, but the woman's arm was nothing. , quickly slipped out of his hands. Liang Xiao was about to jump back when the woman's fingers fluttered like a startling wind and brushed towards his heart. In desperation, Liang Xiao used the "Broken Zi Jue" and "Twist Zi Jue" to dismantle it.
The two of them were separated from each other by the piano table, and their three hands were intertwined. The woman sat quietly and quietly, although she only used one arm, but it was flickering and changing, making Liang Xiao breathless. For a while, he "hooked, picked, popped, and twisted" in the "Ruyi Magic Hand" I tried the twenty-four techniques of ", massaging, swiping, cutting, thrusting, twisting, sealing, pressing, tearing, grasping, and twisting," but I still couldn't get away. After performing hundreds of moves in an instant, Liang Xiao used the "Tang Zi Jue" and twisted his hands towards the woman's wrist. The woman in silk clothes raised her eyebrows and put her hand between Liang Xiao's elbows. Liang Xiao felt a surge of force, and he immediately turned over and sat down, sliding more than ten feet on the bluestone ground. With a "buzz" sound, his back hit the purple gold incense burner. Liang Xiao felt dizzy for a while and opened his mouth to curse, but suddenly he heard Hua Qingyuan say urgently to the woman in a veil: "Mom!"
