Martial Arts: Starting from a Seemingly Real System

Shaolin Dharma Hall and Bodhi Hall are both in the fifth courtyard. Bodhi Hall specializes in martial arts from all over the world, while Dharma Hall only studies Shaolin martial arts.

Bu Gu, a third-generation disciple, is nearly fifty years old and has been in the Dharma Academy for many years. He loves martial arts like his life, but unlike Yan Kuan who likes to practice martial arts, Bu Gu simply likes to study secret manuals. He knows all kinds of Shaolin Kung Fu in the Sutra Library, but seldom practices them.

When Bu Gu heard that a Shaolin martial arts secret book appeared in the fourth courtyard, but the owner said it did not belong to the Sutra Library, he immediately became interested. Is there a Shaolin martial arts secret book that is not recorded in the Sutra Library? Then I must go and see it.

Bu Gou did what he thought and left. Naturally, the other monks in Damo Temple were also curious and followed Bu Gou to the fourth courtyard.

The people from the Dharma Hall went out in groups, alarming the Bodhi Hall across the street. Not knowing what had happened, they all followed behind and came to the fourth courtyard.

The disciples of the Arhat Hall in the fourth courtyard originally did not dare to interfere due to the power of the Discipline Hall for fear of bringing trouble upon themselves, but when they saw that people from the Dharma Hall and Bodhi Hall in the fifth courtyard had arrived, they also plucked up the courage to come over to watch.

In this way, the three generations of disciples from the two temples and two halls of Shaolin gathered together, without dirt or dirt, without sadness or suffering, without hearing or seeing, without fear or regret, without greed or resentment, without anger or ignorance, without doubt or worry...

A group of bald heads came in, shining their lights on the torches, and the field seemed to become brighter in an instant.

Bu Jing was a little surprised to see so many fellow disciples coming over, but he didn't say anything. He nodded slightly to everyone as a greeting, then handed the booklet in his hand to Bu Gu, forced a stiff smile and said, "Please take a look and see if it belongs to the Sutra Repository."

Bu Gu took the booklet and casually looked at both sides. Seeing that there was no name on the cover, he turned directly to the first page and started reading. At this glance, his eyes suddenly froze and his face changed drastically, "This is... this is..."

He could not speak clearly, and quickly turned the second page, the third page... until he finished reading the last page, Bu Gu uttered three words with trembling mouth, "Yi Jin Jing!"

"What? Yi Jin Jing?"

"Yi Jin Jing? How come he has Yi Jin Jing?"

The scene was like cold water dropped into an oil pan, boiling in an instant.

Ma Wencai was the first to recover from his shock. He pointed at Qiao Rui and cursed, "Well, you stole the Shaolin treasure and tried to hide it away from the mountain. You deserve to die!"

Everyone came back to their senses and stared at Qiao Rui fiercely. Stealing the Shaolin secret skills and bringing them down the mountain was truly unforgivable.

Even Yan Kuan looked at Qiao Rui with a puzzled look. Although he trusted Qiao Rui's character, he also believed in Brother Bu Gu's understanding of martial arts. What went wrong?

Bujing's face turned pale when he heard what Bugui said. Qiao Rui was really stubborn. His face was as gloomy as water, his eyes were cold, and he said coldly: "Qiao Rui, what else do you have to say?"

Qiao Rui showed an expression of surprise and disbelief. He knew that the secret book given by his master was a good thing, but he never expected it to be the Yi Jin Jing. Happiness came too suddenly, but he still had to pass the hurdle in front of him first.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, his dark eyes sparkled, and he said loudly: "I said, this secret book was given to me by an elder. It belongs to me personally, not to the Sutra Library."

After saying that, he took two steps forward, then suddenly attacked, snatched the secret book from Bu Gu's hand, and held it tightly in his hand.

"presumptuous!"

"Be bold!"

When everyone saw Qiao Rui openly snatching the secret book, they started to curse him. The monks from the law enforcement team and his fellow disciples from the Bodhi Academy and Dharma Academy all surrounded him and trapped Qiao Rui.

"No!" Bu Gu stared blankly at his empty palm, then slowly moved his gaze to the secret book in Qiao Rui's hand, "It doesn't seem right!"

What's wrong? No one knew what Bu Gu meant, and then Bu Gu waved his sleeves to cover Qiao Rui's hand holding the secret book. Before Qiao Rui could understand what was going on, he felt his hand lighten, and the secret book was already in Bu Gu's hand.

Bu Gu took the secret book back and looked through it again. This time he read it more slowly. As he studied it carefully, his eyes became brighter and brighter. "It's really wrong. It's not the original Yi Jin Jing. It seems to have been simplified, but the effect doesn't seem to have weakened much!"

He was talking to himself, and suddenly he looked up, looking at Qiao Rui with burning eyes, and asked anxiously: "Who gave you this secret book? Who is so talented? Can you introduce this master to me?" As a person who likes to study secret books, no one knows better than him how difficult it is to modify the secret book. Any small change to the refined moves and formulas is extremely difficult.

Ah, this...

Bu Gu's reaction caught everyone off guard. Wasn't the reversal too quick? Was this secret book really not in the Sutra Repository? Who gave it to him? Such a miraculous skill, except for those people in the Shaolin Temple, no one else could have taken it out. Could it be that he had been secretly accepted as a direct disciple by a certain abbot?

"show me!"

Just when everyone was stunned, an old and hoarse voice sounded, and a group of old monks approached from outside the circle. Wow, all the high-ranking Shaolin monks came, including the abbot Wuxiang, the head of the Discipline Courtyard Wuse, the head of the Dharma Courtyard Wuxin, the head of the Bodhi Courtyard Wunian, the head of the Arhat Hall Wuzhen, the head of the Prajna Hall Wuwang, the head of the Lecture Hall Wuguang, the head of the Reception Hall Wuchen, the head of the Medicine King Hall Wuyu and the head of the Sutra Repository Wuqiu.

It turned out that when Yan Kuan saw that the situation was not good, he sent someone he knew to the Prajna Hall to invite the master over. Unexpectedly, the Shaolin high-level officials were meeting today, and Master Wuwang was not in the Prajna Hall. By the time they found Master Wuwang, it had been a long time.

After hearing the report, the chief masters Wuwang Wuchen, who had a good relationship with Qiao Rui, immediately got up and rushed to the fourth courtyard. When Master Wu Se heard that Qiao Rui had fallen into the hands of his own Discipline Court again, he naturally wanted to go and take a look. The others had all heard of Qiao Rui's name and were more or less interested in him, so let's go together.

When the masters came to the fourth courtyard, they happened to hear Bu Wu's words and were all greatly shocked. The improved Yi Jin Jing, with reduced difficulty and the same efficacy? If this is true, it would be a great joy for Shaolin.

One of the old monks rushed forward impatiently, came in front of Bu Gu and said, "Let me see!"

The old monk had long white eyebrows hanging down to the corners of his eyes. He was none other than Master Wu Yu, the head monk of the Sutra Repository. The old monk was Bu Gu's master and the eldest brother among the second generation of Shaolin. He had spent his entire life reading secret Buddhist scriptures in the Sutra Repository. Bu Gu was influenced by his master since he was a child and that's why he loved reading secret Buddhist scriptures so much.

When Bu Gu saw that it was Master Wu Yu coming over, he respectfully called him "Master" and then handed the secret book in his hand to him.

Wu Yu flipped through the secret book and said, "Yes, it is not the original version from the Sutra Repository. There are many minor changes." After saying that, he handed the secret book to Wu Xin who was standing next to him.

Master Wuxin is the head monk of the Dharma Academy. He has always been keen on studying Shaolin martial arts. He is different from Bu Gu who only watches but does not practice. The old monk is proficient in several Shaolin martial arts and has extraordinary knowledge. After reading the secret book, he gave it to other brothers to check and nodded, saying: "The changes are very wonderful and magical. This person must be a martial arts genius who is rare in the world. I can't compare with him."

After a pause, the old monk Wuxin looked at Qiao Rui gently and said, "Where did you get this secret book? This matter is of great importance, you can't hide it."
