Yang Chengye felt that his whole body was without any support, spinning with the dark current, and getting faster and faster, making him dizzy. He drank several mouthfuls of water in a row.
It was unclear how much time had passed, perhaps it was just an instant, or perhaps it was a long time, the power of the undercurrent grew weaker and weaker, and Yang Chengye floated up to the surface along with the water flow.
Yang Chengye climbed up to the shore, and what entered his eyes was a flat land filled with strange rocks. This wasn't the valley from earlier, but another space. The entire space was enclosed, with no connection to the outside world.
It's strange that since this place is not connected to the outside world, why there isn't a bit of stuffiness, and the air here smells particularly good, taking a breath makes you feel refreshed.
Yang Chengye couldn't help but size up this enclosed space out of curiosity, the space wasn't big, only about a hundred square meters, almost within sight.
Suddenly, something shiny caught Yang Chengye's attention.
Yang Chengye looked up and saw an elliptical crystal embedded high in the top of the space.
The crystal flashed with a bright light, as if it were human eyes, and seemed to be the high master, overlooking everything below.
And also from the crystal can be seen misty gas emissions.
It wasn't until then that Yang Chengye realized that the light and air here were all released by this thing, it was truly amazing, absolutely a rare treasure.
Yang Chengye wanted to go up and take a look at what kind of thing can emit light and create air, which even modern technology cannot create.
But at this time, he was completely devoid of internal energy and no different from an ordinary person. How could he possibly obtain that crystal?
Yang Chengye had no choice but to give up reluctantly, but another problem still lingered around him.
This space shouldn't be formed naturally, it's very likely to be man-made. Then the question arises, who has such great ability to build such a wonderful space? Is it really the immortal said by Dugu Qiubai and Saodi Monk?
Thinking of this, Yang Chengye searched again. Since it was man-made, it's impossible that nothing was left behind.
Yang Chengye kept searching and inadvertently bumped into a protruding rock on the cliff wall.
All that could be heard was the sound of "Ka Ka Ka", and then the cliff in front of Yang Chengye suddenly rose, revealing a doorway that only one person could pass through.
Yang Chengye walked in cautiously, and what appeared before his eyes was a passageway. The passageway was very narrow, only allowing one person to pass through at a time.
Yang Chengye walked for about fifty meters and suddenly felt a sense of openness in front of him. It turned out that the end of the passage was a secret room.
The room is not large, only about a dozen square meters, but it has a bed, a table and chairs, all of which are carved out of stone, lifelike and exquisite, worthy of the finest craftsmanship.
In addition, there is a small table in the corner of the room, on which the Three Purities are worshipped. The incense burner has also been overturned, and even the statues of the Three Purities have become rusty and lost their original color.
In front of the case, Yang Chengye saw a corpse. To be strict, it could no longer be considered a corpse, only a skeleton, and a skeleton wearing clothes.
Yang Chengye was a forensic doctor in his previous life and was already familiar with skulls and skeletons, not afraid of them at all.
Yang Chengye curiously came to the front of the skeleton, carefully examined this skeleton, and found that this skeleton had multiple fractures, especially the leg bones had completely deformed.
Looking at the upper body of this skeleton, nearly two-thirds of the ribs are broken, and the sternum is also fractured, piercing inward, which should be towards the heart.
Yang Chengye couldn't figure it out. In this isolated and sealed room, who could have hurt him so badly?
The only explanation is that this person was injured outside and then forced their way here.
Yang Chengye's mind suddenly flashed a person's name, and he was overjoyed, hastily checking other things.
Yang Chengye became more and more excited as he searched, finally bursting into loud laughter, because he had actually found three books on this skeleton.
These three books are "The 18 Dragon-Subduing Palm Techniques", "The Dragon-Capturing Hand" and "The Dog-Beating Stick Method".
These three books are the three great masterpieces of Xiao Feng, the Great Hero. So, the name of this skeleton also came out suddenly, it was Xiao Feng who jumped off the cliff with Ah Zi after his death.
Xiao Feng is a classic hero in the hearts of countless people, regardless of age or gender. Anyone who has read "Tian Long" regards him as an idol.
Yang Chengye gazed at Xiao Feng's corpse, deep in thought: "Ah Zi's tomb is in that valley, and Xiao Feng's body is here. Ah Zi's tombstone was erected by Xiao Feng himself, which means that Xiao Feng did not die back then."
Thinking of this, Yang Chengye shook those three books one by one.
Sure, here is the translation:
As expected, several pages of paper fell out from the secret manual of the Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms.
Yang Chengye opened the paper and looked at it.
My surname is Xiao, my name is Feng, of the Khitan ethnicity, with a Han Chinese name Qiao Feng. I am the 13th leader of the Beggar Clan. In my youth, I led the Beggar Clan brothers in resistance against the Liao Kingdom. Who would have thought that I myself was actually a Liao person? It's truly fate playing tricks on me.
Later, he stepped down as the leader of the gang and sought revenge for his parents' death. He searched for the bandit chief, but many martial artists were killed in the process. To bring peace between the Han and Liao dynasties, he had to sacrifice himself to show his loyalty, and thus died without regret.
Alas, I was deeply in debt when I was young and wronged my beloved wife, Zhu. I personally beat her to death. To make up for my guilt, I decided to take care of Zi. Who would have thought that it led her astray? My heart is filled with pain.
Fell off a cliff and once again implicated Ah Zi, so he personally buried Ah Zi with his full name.
In this life, I have no regrets; the only regret is that I was unable to pass on the Beggar Gang's ultimate technique.
Since you have come, you are a destined person. You can learn my three great skills. If you survive in the future, please be sure to pass on "Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms" and "Dog Beating Stick" to the Beggars' Sect. My heart will be at ease.
Yang Chengye put away the paper, secretly sighing. The greatest hero of his generation had ended up in such a state, it was truly heaven playing tricks on people. Since he had obtained these three great techniques, he would pass down the "Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms" and "Dog Beating Stick" to the Beggars' Sect in the future.
Yang Chengye suddenly thought of Hong Qi and decided that it was the right time to pass on these two great skills to him.
To show his respect for Xiao Feng, Yang Chengye bowed three times deeply to him and then buried his remains outside the secret chamber.
Yang Chengye found some wild fruit to fill his hunger, and in his mind he recalled the descriptions of the "Jiuyang True Classic", beginning to cultivate, hoping that one day he could recover his internal energy.
He is strong and he rises high, a clear wind sweeps across the mountain ridge; He is broad and he expands wide, a bright moon shines over the great river.
He himself is cruel and evil, I myself have a mouthful of true energy.
The vital energy sinks to the depths, its power concentrates in the root of the mountain. When it is time for the vital energy to move, one must get the energy to return and operate by itself, without needing external force from any direction.
…………
Yang Chengye practiced the method recorded in the "Jiuyang True Classic", and gradually, his dantian began to heat up, a true energy like a small mouse started to flow through his body.
Yang Chengye couldn't help but feel a great joy upon realizing this phenomenon, as the feeling was all too familiar, exactly the same as it had been in the beginning.
