  Chapter 1614 1616 [Shaolin Twenty-Four Unique Skills]

  All five hundred monks in Shaolin Temple surrendered under the leadership of Abbot Jue Chan.

  Xiang Nan detained them separately and asked for Shaolin's superior martial arts cheats.

  After interrogation, Xiang Nan learned that in this world, Shaolin Temple's unique skills are not as many as the seventy-two items in Jin Yong's novels, and there are only twenty-four items in total.

Among them, the six palm techniques, five leg techniques, four boxing techniques, three stick techniques, two sword techniques, one saber technique, one spear technique, one light skill technique, and one internal skill technique, all of them are at the unique level. Own unique internal strength and operation methods.

  Unlike Arhat Fist, Fuhu Fist, White Eyebrow Cudgel, etc., it is just a pure trick, not a unique skill.

   But what Xiang Nan is most interested in is the inner strength known as the golden bell jar, and the lightness ability of crossing the river with a reed. As for palm technique, leg technique, boxing technique, etc., to him, it is actually not too important.

   After all, his Taijiquan is already considered a unique skill, not inferior to the boxing and palm techniques of Shaolin Temple. His learning of boxing, kicking, and palming from Shaolin Temple can only be used as a reference, and it is far from achieving the purpose of improving his strength.

  Just like Jiumozhi in "Dragon Babu", his own flame knife is already a unique skill. Simultaneously studying the seventy-two unique skills of Shaolin Temple did not improve his martial arts to a higher level.

  The inner strength of the golden bell jar is an advanced version of the outer strength such as the lifting pot, iron sand palm, and iron head skill that Xiang Nan practiced before. Not only can it strengthen the body and enhance the ability to resist blows, but it can also strengthen the viscera from the inside out, making the body function more healthy and maintain the best condition.

  Like Juexin, the chief seat in front of the Bodhidharma Hall, he didn't retire until he was eighty years old. Before that, his body was very strong, able to carry a large stone mill weighing hundreds of kilograms. Therefore, this technique is naturally excellent for Xiang Nan.

   And lightness kung fu crossing the river with one reed, after mastering it, of course it is impossible to cross the river with one reed, but it can also make people feel as light as a swallow. Waiting for a wall that is three or four meters high, you can fly up it with just one jump. After you finish your studies, it will undoubtedly be excellent.

  As for swordsmanship, daoism, stick and marksmanship, they are not bad either. Especially the swordsmanship, which provided him with a lot of inspiration to create the Tai Chi sword, and it was worth the money.

  …

  Xiang Nan then presented to Emperor Jiajing a piece of internal energy he had summarized, named "Yi Jin Jing".

  This "Yi Jin Jing" was compiled based on the "Fetal Breath Jue" written by Chen Tuan, Qiu Chuji's "Da Dan Zhi Zhi Sheng Sheng Nei Jing", Bai Yuchan's "Jin Hua Chong Bi Dan Jing Secret Edict" and so on.

   Coupled with Indian yoga, Chinese medicine Baduanjin, Wuqinxi, miscellaneous together. Xiang Nan didn't dare to say more about other effects, anyway, as long as Jiajing is willing to practice, it will definitely have the effect of prolonging life.

  However, he knew that practicing kung fu is a very boring thing, and Jiajing lived a good life since he was a child, so he couldn't live a hard life. Just like Taijiquan, he originally learned it cheerfully, but after learning it for a long time, he put it behind him.

  For him, this kind of radio gymnastics-like boxing is tiring to fight, let alone this "Yi Jin Jing".

  He is just drawing fresh for two days, and when the freshness is over, he will throw it aside.

   Wanting to live forever and prolong life, Emperor Jiajing still wanted to take a shortcut, so he recruited a group of alchemists to burn alchemy and refine mercury to pray for disaster relief.

  Just like modern people lose weight, they can’t control their mouths or move their legs, so they hope that they can lose weight easily by taking a few diet pills. That is of course impossible.

  Xiang Nan also knew that burning alchemy to refine mercury and praying for blessings were of no use at all.

   Burning alchemy to smelt mercury, all the smelted are heavy metals, let alone immortality, it is possible to mourn on the spot; as for disaster relief and praying for blessings, it is even more nonsense.

  However, Emperor Jiajing was very stubborn, so Xiang Nan slapped him a few times, seeing that he couldn't listen to his opinions, he could only let it go, and never persuaded him again.

  After Xiang Nan learned the twenty-four stunts of Shaolin Temple, he asked Jiajing to issue an order to send these monks back to Shaolin. After all, he only wants to learn martial arts and doesn't want to hurt others.

  …

   "Master, Jun Bao and I came to see you." Xiang Nan and Jun Bao stood in front of Jueyuan's spiritual bone pagoda and worshiped, "I'm really sorry that I'm not filial to come to see you now."

   "Senior brother, I want to take Master's spiritual bone pagoda to Laojun Temple for burial." Jun Bao said to Xiang Nan.

   "Well, let's take it away." Xiang Nan nodded, "We have become enemies with Shaolin Temple this time, and they can't do anything to us, maybe they will vent their anger on Master's ashes. So let's take it away."

  They copied all the martial arts secret books from Shaolin Temple, which is a heinous thing in the martial arts world. Peeping at other people practicing martial arts, even gouging out their eyes and abolishing their martial arts.

   This snatching of all the cheats is an endless vengeance.

  However, Xiang Nan is not afraid. He is skilled in martial arts, and he is not afraid of the monks of Shaolin Temple seeking revenge. As for the other disciples of the Taiji Sect, whether they will be chased and beaten by the monks of Shaolin Temple while traveling in the rivers and lakes is none of Xiang Nan's business.

  The master leads the door, and the practice is in the individual. It's normal to be beaten if you don't practice kung fu well.

  …

  After worshiping the master, Xiang Nan returned to the capital.

  In the next few years, he still studied martial arts every day and went to the palace to give lectures.

  However, he also did a few good things. First, he popularized the method of treating smallpox with cowpox, so that this disease that once ravaged all over the world and caused countless deaths and injuries every year, no longer acted violently. This alone has countless living people and won the admiration of the people all over the world.

  Second, they ordered people to buy sweet potato, corn and pepper seeds from Portuguese businessmen in Macau. The yield of sweet potatoes is extremely high, and one mu of land can produce nearly a thousand catties, which is higher than rice and wheat. Moreover, sweet potato leaves and sweet potato seedlings can be eaten, which greatly alleviated the famine.

   Corn is also a high-yield crop. Compared with wheat and rice, it has strong drought tolerance, cold resistance, barren resistance and excellent environmental adaptability.

   As for chili, it is a spice, an excellent condiment. Before chili was introduced into China, the spices used by Chinese people were mostly onion, ginger, garlic, pepper, pepper, dogwood and so on. The introduction of chili has greatly enriched the taste buds of Chinese people.

  Thirdly, Xiang Nan contributed the production methods of glass, mirror and cement.

   Glass has existed since ancient times, and Chinese people call it medicine jade. Because the glass made locally is not pure enough and has poor heat resistance, it has never been popularized.

Xiang Nan knew the glass manufacturing technology, so he quickly made a large piece of glass, dedicated it to Emperor Jiajing, and built a palace made of glass for him in the palace, which made Jiajing very happy and named him Crystal Palace. .

   And when glass is made, mirrors should come as no surprise. At that time, there were glass mirrors imported from the West in the palace, but Xiang Nan's mirror was bigger and the images were more realistic, which naturally made Jiajing more fond of it.

  Cement is an excellent building material. It can not only build houses, but also build fortifications, flood control dams, bridges and roads... It can be said to be quite practical.

  Emperor Jiajing even gave it the name 【Xi Rang】. In ancient times, Dayu used soil to build dams to stop floods. Emperor Jiajing felt that cement had this effect.

   Xiang Nan who donated cement is naturally a great hero. And if he can get this treasure, he is naturally a wise king of Youdao.

   Therefore, he rewarded Xiang Nan with the title [Feng Tian Fu Guo Tong Wei Qing Xu Yuan Miao Yin Xian Yu Hua Hong Ren Ji Shi Purdu Loyalty Real Man].

  Reward [Explaining Education and Protecting the Country] Jade Seal, Platinum, Wenqi, Crown, Dharma Clothes, Mink Fur. It governs the three palaces of Chaotian, Xianling, and Lingji in the capital, and is in charge of Taoism.

   That is to say, all Taoist priests in the world are managed by Xiang Nan, which can be said to be extremely honorable.
