Yongzhou City was called Chang 'an in the previous dynasty and was the center of the world at that time.
In the previous dynasty, cultivation techniques were all in the hands of the large families. At the end of the previous dynasty, heroes rose up, aristocratic families collapsed, and cultivation techniques flowed into the people. Only then did the martial arts world of the Great Song appear.
This time, Gu Hongzi's target wasn't Li Shiming's mausoleum, but the tombs around the Zhaoling Mausoleum.
Li Shimin had been a genius in the past. There were countless famous generals and experts under him, and among them, the most talented was Li Jing, the Duke of Wei, and Li Yaoshi.
Li Jing had made great contributions back then and could be called the Great Tang's God of War. The amazing thing was that he was not only proficient in the art of war, but also had literary talent. Even his martial arts were famous in the martial arts world. At that time, he was the leader of the famous Feng Chen Three.
This time, Gu Hongzi's target was Li Jing's cemetery in the State of Wei, because there was something that Gu Hongzi wanted inside.
After hundreds of years of exposure to the elements, natural disasters, and man-made disasters, the cemetery of the State of Wei had long lost its former prosperity. Although Li Jing's martial arts had been decided at that time, he had not broken through to perfection and become an immortal.
The peerless expert from back then was now a skeleton in a coffin. If he couldn't break through to the Great Circle and become immortal, then in a few decades, Gu Hongzi would be nothing but dirt.
Gu Hongzi sighed and then used his palm to break open the cemetery. This place had long been deserted, so no one came here in the dead of night.
The tomb raiders coveted Li Shimin's Zhaoling Tomb, but they were not interested in the Wei Country Cemetery next door. Because Li Jing was buried with Zhao Mausoleum, there were not many burial items.
Moreover, at the end of the previous dynasty, Huang Chao, the Devil King, had mastered a peerless demonic technique and conquered Chang 'an City by himself. Then, his troops wantonly destroyed the imperial mausoleum of the previous dynasty. Moreover, Huang Chao killed 100,000 people in Chang 'an City to cultivate his own demonic skills.
The burial tombs near the Zhaoling Mausoleum had long been dilapidated, so Gu Hongzi easily entered the cemetery of the State of Wei. Everything in the tomb had been ransacked, and even Li Jing's coffin had been overturned.
However, Gu Hongzi knew that the Tendon Changing Classic he was looking for must be here. As expected, Gu Hongzi's gaze landed on Li Jing's old coffin, which was still intact.
Gu Hongzi apologized to Li Jing in his heart, and then broke the coffin with his palm. The other three sides of the coffin had rotted into dregs, but the coffin was still intact. Anyone with a discerning eye would have a problem with it.
The moon is dark and the wind is high. It's time to steal more goods. When the moon was high in the sky, Gu Hongzi had already walked out of the tomb. At this moment, Gu Hongzi was holding a black oilpaper bag in his hand.
The Tendon Changing Classic was indeed here. Gu Hongzi's memory was indeed correct.
Everyone knew that the Tendon Changing Classic was the most precious treasure of the Shaolin Zen Temple, but no one had ever investigated its origins. Perhaps it was because the past was too long ago that even if someone wanted to investigate, they would not be able to do so.
Tendon Changing Classic was indeed passed down by Patriarch Bodhidharma, but the monks of Shaolin Temple only knew that it was a Buddhist classic. Yijin Jing was written in Sanskrit, so it was difficult to understand. If it wasn't for the fact that it was passed down by Bodhidharma on his deathbed, the monks of Shaolin Temple wouldn't have valued it.
This Tendon Changing Classic had profound principles. Bodhidharma's disciple, Second Ancestor Huike, studied it hard but could not understand it. Although there were only a few scriptures, the Buddhist principles contained in them were incomparably vast.
So Huike traveled all over the famous mountains, visited the eminent monks, and asked for the wonderful truth. Huike searched for twenty years and finally met the Indian monk, Banlamidi, at Mount Emei. The two of them studied together.
The two eminent monks inspired each other on Emei Mountain's Golden Summit. After forty-nine days, they finally understood each other. Hui Ke finally understood the Buddhist principles contained in Muscle-bone Strengthening Scripture and left Shu happily.
Hui Ke crossed the Qinling Mountains and went north. On Chang 'an Road, he met a young man who was proficient in martial arts. They talked for three days and three nights. Under the inspiration of this young man, Huike finally understood that Tendon Changing Classic was also a martial arts secret book.
The young man who had enlightened the second ancestor of the Zen Sect was Li Jing. It only took Li Jing three days to comprehend the martial arts profound meaning in the Muscle-bone Strengthening Scripture. At the same time, Li Jing told Hui Ke what he had learned, and Hui Ke returned to Shaolin Temple.
However, it was a pity that Huike was devoted to Buddhism and his study of Buddhism was far more profound than martial arts. After returning to Shaolin Temple, he only told the monks that there were peerless martial arts in the Tendon Changing Classic, but he did not pass on the martial arts that Li Jing comprehended.
Until now, the Tendon Changing Classic in Shaolin Temple was still written in Sanskrit, and it was full of Buddhist principles. The second ancestor Huike had never passed down the martial arts in the Tendon Changing Classic.
After Second Ancestor passed away, the only person who knew the martial arts profound meaning of Tendon Changing Classic was Li Jing. On the other hand, Li Jingjian's extraordinary martial arts and his long life span were all thanks to the Tendon Changing Classic.
Gu Hongzi had already set his eyes on Tendon Changing Classic. If he wanted to master all the martial arts in the world, he would have to learn Tendon Changing Classic. This was because Yijin Jing's inner energy was gentle and could harmonize all true qi.
Moreover, Bodhidharma was someone who had achieved immortality. The cultivation technique he left behind before he died was definitely a top-grade cultivation technique among the peerless cultivation techniques.
Back then, Bodhidharma had lived for more than 150 years and had told the Northern Wei Emperor before he died. After Bodhidharma died, the Northern Wei Emperor gave him a lavish burial. But a few days later, someone met Dharma on the way to the Western Regions.
Damoto told the Emperor of Northern Wei that the time limit for him to preach in the Central Plains was up and he had to return to India. At that time, Bodhidharma only wore one shoe. When the Northern Wei Emperor opened the coffin and examined it, he found that there was only one shoe in the coffin.
Thinking of Bodhidharma's peerless elegance, Gu Hongzi's heart was burning. With the Tendon Changing Classic in his hands, he had gained a lot this time.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Gu Hongzi used his qinggong and rushed back to Yongzhou City from Zhaoling.
The Ji Family was still silent. No one had noticed Gu Hongzi's whereabouts. Even Ji Yaohua slept soundly tonight because Gu Hongzi had been very concerned about her for the past two days.
