Volume 2: Buddha's Hand Saves All Living Things, Subdues Demons and Attains Bodhi Chapter 63 The most terrible weapon
One day, there was a storm, a teahouse, an old man, a pot of new wine, a hat and a raincoat.
"What is the most terrifying weapon in the world?"
The old man, in cloth clothes and straw sandals, holding a pestle and a stick, sat in a corner and said this.
There was a storm outside, but the teahouse was bustling with activity.
The rain came suddenly, so many people from all walks of life gathered in the store, and now all of them were attracted by this man's words.
"Where did you come from, old man? Who else could be the most powerful person in the martial arts world besides Xiao Li Fei Dao?"
"Not necessarily. In my opinion, Fu Hongxue's knife is not bad either."
"And the Songyang Iron Sword."
"Heavenly secret stick!"
"The sword of the flying swordsman."
…
Everyone was arguing with each other, their faces red and the quarrel was unbearable.
Someone saw that the old man who had started the riot had nothing more to say, but instead stayed out of the matter, drinking alone, and immediately said in dissatisfaction: "Old man, then tell me, what is the most powerful weapon in the world?"
The old man had a head full of white hair and his cheeks were rough and dark, like a burnt piece of charcoal. There was a thick, gray stubble on his chin. His hands were bony. He was holding a wine cup and eating fried peanuts, sipping them slowly with relish.
Hearing the question, he smiled cheerfully: "There are too many powerful weapons in this world. As for which one is the most powerful, I dare not easily make a conclusion without fighting, but I can always name a few of the more powerful ones."
Someone sneered: "With your miserable appearance, have you ever seen any martial arts masters? Then tell me, which ones are the most powerful ones?"
The old man didn't take it seriously. He picked up a peanut and put it in his mouth. He looked at the wind and rain outside and sighed, "The Jianghu is the master , and people are guests. After ten years of life and death, how many people can return... Are the seven weapons in the past considered powerful?"
"Seven weapons? Which seven?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, not knowing what it meant, as it seemed that few people had ever heard of the seven weapons.
But rare does not mean no. In another corner of the teahouse, a taciturn man in black, with his hand on an iron sword, his dull and cold eyes suddenly moved, and he said coldly: "Sword of Immortality, Peacock Feather, Jade Knife, Love Ring, Overlord Spear, Parting Hook..."
The man named six weapons in a row, but when he got to the seventh, he suddenly frowned and stopped talking. Then he stared at the old man and asked, "Which one is left?"
As soon as these names came out, leaving aside other things, the "Peacock Feather" had already made everyone change color with shock.
In the past, "Peacock Villa" was feared by the world, and the treasure of the villa, the "Peacock Feather", was unique in the world and regarded by the world as the best hidden weapon. Whoever obtained it would be invincible and it caused trouble for hundreds of years.
Then someone exclaimed in a low voice: "Ah, the Iron Sword of Songyang!"
Everyone looked at the sword in the young man's hand again.
They may not know the young man, but they must know the sword in the other's hand.
Ever since Jing Wuming disappeared and the Flying Swordsman retired from the martial arts world, looking at the vast martial arts world, in the art of swordsmanship, the "Songyang Iron Sword" is undoubtedly the most famous.
But Guo Ding's expression suddenly changed. He looked at the backpack beside the old man, on which was leaning a sword, an unusual ancient sword. The sword body was actually blue, a bright blue, the sword shape was ancient and crude, and the sword intent was cold and eerie.
"Your last name is Lan?" He asked in a hoarse voice, tightening the iron sword in his hand.
At this time, another voice came out from the teahouse, a woman whispered: "Blue Mountain Ancient Sword!"
When everyone looked in the direction of the sound, they saw a man and a woman sitting in the corner; the man was dressed in white clothes, and was fair, clean, delicate and gentle, while the woman was born with a beautiful face, extremely beautiful. On her white neck, which was whiter than frost and snow, she wore a golden circle with bells on it. She also had bells on her wrists and ankles. Whenever she moved, the bells would ring "ding-ling-ling" non-stop.
These two people are Ye Kai and Ding Linglin, the successors of Xiao Li Flying Dagger.
Looking at the ancient sword next to the old man, Ye Kai couldn't help but be moved.
In the past, the owner of this sword had superb sword skills and was known as the "Divine Eyes and Divine Sword". He was unrivaled in the world. His reputation was no less than that of today's Flying Swordsman and Jing Wuming, and even surpassed them, making him the only one in the martial arts world.
There was a heavy storm outside the store. White lightning pierced the dark sky and flashed through the door, illuminating the stiff and strange faces.
Looking around, he saw that in addition to them, there were twenty or thirty well-known figures in the martial arts world gathered in this small teahouse in Jinling City.
Including the master of "Jiledong" in Miaojiang, Grandma Jile, the great lama of the Yellow Sect in the western "Xingxiu Sea", the Lord Ouyang of "Pearl City" who dominates the East China Sea, as well as many evil masters, ruthless black men, and masters of the white world who roam in the mountains and rivers.
Even the shop owner is a low-key martial arts master who holds a huge copper pot with one arm, which is nearly three feet tall and weighs more than seventy or eighty kilograms. The hot water in the pot is boiling, making a sizzling sound, which makes everyone who sees it look fearful.
All of these people now have subtle expressions; some sit quietly without saying a word, some close their eyes to rest, and some seem to be taking a nap with their eyes closed, all waiting for what is to come next.
Someone said coldly, "No matter how powerful the seven weapons are, they are a thing of the past. Don't talk about outdated things anymore. Moreover, every era is destined to have its own legends. No one is ever invincible forever. The famous hero Shen Lang is like this, and so is Li Tanhua. Even if they are really invincible, let them show up a hundred years later. I'm afraid that their old bones can't even beat a child."
At this point, the man's tone changed, and he glanced at everyone strangely, and continued in a faint voice: "Hehehe, I do know of a weapon in the martial arts world recently that is powerful enough to compete with all the heroes in the world, and can even be invincible in the world."
The old man had no expression on his face, he ate peanuts one by one and said, "Tell me now."
“Hehe, no problem.” The gloomy man narrowed his eyes and recited a sentence word by word, “The Buddha’s hand saves the common people, and subdues demons to attain enlightenment… The Heavenly Buddha’s Devil-Subduing Palm !”
As soon as these words were spoken, the teahouse was suddenly filled with a murderous atmosphere. The terrifying atmosphere made Ding Linglin shrink her shoulders, and even Ye Kai frowned.
Ever since he and Ding Linglin left Chang'an three years ago, they have been riding horses to the south of the Yangtze River and living a life of luxury. But a month ago , news came from somewhere that a unique palm technique had reappeared in the world.
It is said that this palm skill is a unique skill from the "Clavicle of the Soul-Stirring Buddha" passed down by the extraordinary man Zhiyan Langjun hundreds of years ago. Anyone who can master it will be invincible and can do whatever he wants.
Once the news came out, within less than half a month, dozens of groups of people, large and small, had heard the news and rushed into Nanjing.
The reason why it was Jinling was because according to rumors, this item was found in the Western Regions by a merchant outside the Great Wall. Unfortunately, the news leaked along the way, and the rare treasure changed hands several times before it flowed into Jinling.
Fearing that the case of the "Happy King" Chai Yuguan would happen again, many old martial arts masters had to step into the secular world again, and many retired martial arts masters had to reappear in the martial arts world.
You have to know that the "Invincible Treasure Mirror" written by the invincible monk back then was completely without any basis, and it caused a catastrophe just by fabrication. However, this "one-eyed man" actually existed, and he was an unparalleled master. Who would not be tempted by the unique skills he taught?
"Humph, whether it's true or not, I have to take a look at it before I can give up."
"Yes, if you want us all to retreat with just a few words, it is wishful thinking."
"This Jinling City is not big, but it's not small either. I don't believe that we can't find it even if we turn it upside down."
"It's not that easy. I heard that a hidden figure has emerged in Jinling City in recent years. In less than two years, all the business in this city, whether it's open business or shady business, needs his approval to be completed."
"Not only that, I heard that 80% of the people in the city will obey his orders, and the remaining 20% will even work for him until they die."
"Besides, this guy has also interfered with the business on the Yangtze River. The Twelve Linked Docks and the Sea Sand Gang have to curry favor with him. Several big bandits on the Jiangbei Green Forest Road also have to curry favor with him. The thirty-six escort agencies in Jiangnan have to rely on him for their livelihood."
…
Everyone was talking at once, and the more they spoke, the more solemn and ugly their faces became, and the more moved they became.
"who is he?"
"Ghost Prince!"
