Chapter 2514 2516 [Seventy-two stunts]
Dharma Academy is the highest martial arts center in Shaolin Temple.
Those who can enter the Bodhidharma Academy to practice are all the most talented and brilliant people in Shaolin Temple. Being able to enter the Bodhidharma Academy to study skills is also a highly respected duty of Shaolin monks. If martial arts hadn't reached a certain level, he would definitely not be qualified.
Back then, Dong Tianbao participated in the selection of monks in the Bodhidharma Academy, but his uncle blew his whistle, so he went out of Shaolin together with Zhang Junbao.
Xiang Nan quietly came to Dharma Courtyard, and saw that although it was late at night, there were still monks practicing martial arts in the practice room. Practicing boxing, practicing legs, practicing sticks, practicing swords... It was a joy to practice.
Seeing this scene, Xiang Nan was very emotional.
Thinking back then, he also practiced martial arts hard. Practice three nines in winter, practice three days in summer, and never stop in cold and heat.
But later he realized a truth, if you want to be successful in martial arts, training your brain is more important than training your fists.
Because the more brilliant the martial arts, the more the school's understanding will be tested. If you can't comprehend it thoroughly, you will never want to become a first-class master in your life.
Xiang Nan bypassed the practice room and entered the side hall, where he saw a statue of Bodhidharma and a gray futon in front of him.
Xiang Nan hurriedly knelt on the futon, and sincerely kowtowed upwards, every time he kowtowed very sincerely. But he knocked it and realized that a square brick in front of the futon was movable. Knock three times, just to start the mechanism.
Sure enough, after three strokes, the statue of Bodhidharma slowly moved away, revealing a huge hole below.
Xiang Nan stood at the entrance of the cave and looked in. I saw that the inside was bottomless, pitch black, and I couldn't see my fingers.
He took out a candle for lighting, went down into the secret passage, and then restored the image of Bodhidharma.
Entering it, you will see a spacious tunnel below, which leads obliquely to the ground.
Xiang Nan walked for a while before the ground gradually leveled off.
Not far away, you can vaguely see a lot of wooden frames. Xiang Nan couldn't help but feel happy, knowing that the seventy-two stunts are here.
And at this moment, he suddenly heard a whoosh, and something quickly called him.
Xiang Nan listened to the sound and recognized the position, and knew it was very powerful, and hurriedly dodged to the side, avoiding this dangerous move.
Then he held up a candle to check, and saw an iron organist in the crack of the tunnel, holding a wrought iron Zen stick in his hand.
"This is the organ of Shaolin Temple?! It's really exquisite." After observing it, Xiang Nan said in amazement.
Song Dynasty had no computers and no semiconductors, but the skillful craftsmen at that time were able to use mechanisms to make such exquisite mechanism people, which is really amazing.
Thinking of Guo Xiang’s sixteenth birthday, Zen Master Wu Se once gave her two iron arhats, and she was able to perform a set of Shaolin Arhats. This shows that the craftsmen of Shaolin Temple are really ingenious.
After careful observation, Xiang Nan realized that although the mechanisms in the cave were exquisite, they were still inseparable from the patterns of Yin-Yang, Five Elements, and Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.
Immediately, he followed Huang Yaoshi's instructions, three from left and four from right, five in front and six in back, and finally bypassed all the officials and came to the rows of bookshelves.
I saw densely packed bookshelves with tens of thousands of books.
Xiang Nan picked up a copy at random, and was overwhelmed with surprise, only to see four large characters written on the cover, ""Wuxiang Jiezhi"?!"
He picked up another book, and was pleasantly surprised again. There were three large characters written on the cover—"Nianhuazhi".
Wuxiang Jiezhi, Nianhuazhi, Subduing Demon Palm, Tiger Claw Hand, Begging Bowl Palm...
…
The seventy-two unique skills of Shaolin Temple are indeed extensive and profound, each with its own ingenuity.
For example, the Formless Tribulation Finger, which is formless, formless, and completely invisible when cast, the opponent has no way to guard against it and has already been recruited. It is the only way to sneak attack and assassinate.
Another example is the finger-twisting finger. The finger force is extremely soft, but the lethality is not weak at all. Also without knowing it, he restrained the opponent, which is really powerful.
Xiang Nan has a high talent in martial arts, and he has also practiced Taixuan Jing, Nine Suns Magical Skills, Nine Yins Manual, Small Wuxiang Skills, and the Great Movement of Heaven and Earth.
The so-called internal energy in the world does not exceed the barriers of the Nine Suns Divine Art; and the method of moving and exerting force in the universe is the culmination of all martial arts, one method can be mastered, and all methods can be mastered. No martial arts is in front of him. There is nothing mysterious about it.
Nine Yin Scriptures record the gist of the world's martial arts. Regardless of internal and external martial arts, boxing and swordsmanship, all the most basic methods and tricks are included in the first volume of the scriptures.
The small non-phase kung fu is also subtle and profound, and can be used to use various schools and schools of martial arts; the Taixuan Sutra can turn all martial arts into one furnace, so that practitioners can do whatever they want, and there will be no disadvantages.
Therefore, with so many unique skills in his body, Xiang Nan practiced the seventy-two unique skills of Shaolin Temple, which is really extremely fast. After reading it once, one can comprehend the gist, and by practicing it once, one is very proficient, which is comparable to the decades of painstaking practice of the monks in Shaolin Temple.
Such a speed is really frightening.
…
In the next few days, Xiang Nan hid in the secret cave to read.
And he has also noticed that there is nothing unusual in Shaolin Temple recently, but it is rumored that Abbot Zhenji entered meditation at night, accidentally broke his inner breath, and is recuperating in the meditation room.
Xiang Nan was not surprised by this result.
He made the Marrow-drawing Palm and Tianclaw Claw vicious and painful, but they did not leave any traces. In addition, Jiuxiang Mihun San has the effect of stunning and deleting short-term memory.
When Zhenji wakes up overnight, he will only feel that his internal breath is disordered, and he will not remember what he was tortured last night. The scripture cave was invaded by people.
In this way, Xiang Nan can hide in the Sutra Pavilion with peace of mind, and read the scriptures without any scruples.
In less than a week, he had learned all the seventy-two unique skills of Shaolin, and he also found the Sanskrit "Yi Jin Jing" passed down by Bodhidharma.
It was originally stolen by A Zhu in "The Eight Parts of the Dragon", and then it was obtained by Qiao Feng, You Tanzhi, and Jiumozhi successively, and finally returned to Shaolin Temple by Duan Yu.
Xiang Nan knew that this Sanskrit "Yi Jin Jing" actually contained two magical exercises. One is the Sanskrit "Yi Jin Jing", and the other is the "Shenzu Jing" hidden in it.
These two magic arts are top-notch skills. Needless to say, "Yi Jin Jing", together with the Six Meridians Excalibur, is known as the supreme classic of martial arts in the world.
And "Shenzu Jing" is also quite amazing. You Tanzhi has only practiced for more than half a year, and he is already able to compete with Abbot Xuanci of Shaolin Temple, head of Xingxiu School Ding Chunqiu, Murong Fu and others.
The speed is astonishing, even faster than many geniuses, such as Huang Yaoshi, Ouyang Feng, Zhang Wuji, Yang Guo, Zhou Botong and so on.
After all, Zhang Wuji had practiced "Nine Suns Magic Art" for five years; Yang Guo had been in the ancient tomb for several years, but he was only at the level of a second-rate master, and was chased all over the world by Li Mochou; Not as deep as Yang Guo's internal strength...
It can be seen that the magical skill of "Shenzu Jing" is indeed worthy of the name of "God".
Xiang Nan was naturally very happy when he got these two magical skills.
In addition, Xiang Nan also found the poisonous scriptures left by Ding Chunqiu and "Huagong Dafa" from the vast collection of books. The viciousness of these poisonous skills made him shudder when he saw them.
