When the mute mother-in-law saw Li Bufu and Master Dingyi standing together, her expression still did not change at all.

It seems that all people and things in this world are meaningless to her, a deaf and mute old man.

She didn't speak or did nothing. She just glanced at Li Buqi, and then went straight to fetch water.

Master Dingyi looked at the mute mother-in-law several times, and finally said, "Her body movements are gone without a trace, and there is no movement under her feet. Her body movements are indeed strange and inexplicable, but... they are just not like the decent body movements!"

Li Bufu said: "Body skills are body skills. Where can we divide the right and evil sects? If you use it as righteous, it is righteous, and if you use it as evil, it is evil! What's the point of criticizing you?"

Master Dingyi said: "But this kind of body technique is not used specifically to attack others?"

Li Bufu stared and said, "I have been growing up since I was a child. If I didn't rely on sneak attacks on others, I'm afraid I won't be able to stand here and talk to you today!"

Master Dingyi felt both angry and funny, and said, "Do you really think this body technique is more sophisticated than the 'Star-absorbing Technique'?"

Li Bufu said: "It's even better than it is!"

Master Dingyi saw that Li Bufu looked like he was joking, so he asked again: "What's so strange about this bodywork?"

Li Bufu pondered and said, "I can't be sure yet. When I study for another month, I will probably be able to understand it thoroughly!"

Master Dingyi was too slow to go back to the main topic and said, "Sister Dingxian heard that the 'Star-absorbing Technique' was born, and wanted to have a discussion on the right path with Master Fang Zheng, Master Chongxu, and Mr. Mo Da."

Li Bufu said: "Director Dingxian also wants to invite me?"

Master Dingyi said, "That's exactly what it means."

Li Bufu, Master Fang Zheng, Master Chongxu, and Mr. Mo Da, these four people are obviously the most trustworthy people in the Hengshan Sect.

Li Bufu thought for a while and said, "I don't have to participate. Just ask the leader of Lan Phoenix to go. Ren Myxing used the Star-Sucking Technique at the beginning, but now the Star-Sucking Technique is reappearing, that's it."

Master Dingyi shook his head and said, "If someone else gets the Star-Absorbing Technique, there is no need to worry so much. The key is that the Star-Absorbing Technique is in Lin Pingzhi's hands, it will be a bit difficult."

Master Dingyi’s meaning is not difficult to understand - Lin Pingzhi obtained the “Star-absorbing Technique”. Although he had the intention of offering it to Li Bushu in public, no one could guarantee that he did not practice it secretly.

If the "Star-Absorbing Technique" plus the "Evil-Repelling Sword Score" and the two skills are used together, it will indeed create a master with profound internal skills and superb swordsmanship in a very short time.

In addition, Lin Pingzhi has shown great ambitions these days, which makes Hengshan School very worried.

Li Bufu said, "Okay, if Master Fang Zheng and Master Chongxu are interested, you can come here to find me, but I will continue to study this technique now."

The meaning of his words was that he regarded the mute mother-in-law as a book of "living mind", and he wanted to fully understand it here.

·········

However, in the ten days, Lan Fenghuang came a few times and told Li Bufu about Fang Zheng, Chongxu and others were invited to Hengshan.

After Li Bufu said that he knew about it, he continued to think about the ghostly body movements of this mute mother-in-law.

His understanding of this bodywork has reached the most critical moment.

He vaguely felt that this craft contained something strange, which might not be of much use to the mute mother-in-law, but if Li Bufu understood it, it would be of great benefit to his martial arts level.

After more than ten days, Li Bufu was still in the Hanging Temple.

He hung his body on the top of a loft and looked down with a smile.

The mute mother-in-law is sweeping the floor.

When she swept the floor, even the sound of the broom rubbing the floor was smaller than that when ordinary people swept the floor.

Li Bufu suddenly asked, "Mummy mother-in-law, I don't know if you are a real mute, but you are not a deaf person, right?"

After saying this, the mute mother-in-law still did not respond at all.

She still held the broom and silently swept the dust on the ground, as if she had never heard anything.

Li Bufu sighed: "It has been really not easy for you to stay here alone, not talk to others, and pretend to be unable to hear anything... But because of this, you can practice this unparalleled body technique. It is also a reward for hard work, which is admirable!"

And at this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

An old voice sounded, saying, "A man hung in the air in the temple. Master Fang Zheng, I will give this couplet, can you match it?"

Another voice said: "Amitabha, I dare not use Master Li as a play."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Outside the Hanging Temple, five people walked in. In addition to the Sanding Master, they were Master Fang Zheng from Shaolin and Master Chongxu from Wudang.

Li Bufu was still hanging in the air and said with a smile: "The Taoist priest and the abbot have been missing for a long time."

Taoist Master Chongxu joked: "I heard that Master Li is comprehending the magical power here, so we came here to get a share of the pie."

Li Bufu stretched out his finger and smiled, "Hahahahahahaha, the magical power is there. If you want to comprehend it, you can go to her!"

Everyone looked in the direction Li Bufu pointed, and they saw the mute mother-in-law sweeping the floor without distraction. She seemed to notice someone coming, so she raised her head and looked at them.

Then she continued to sweep the floor.

Taoist Master Chongxu said, "Is her sweeping the floor a magical skill?"

Li Bufu said with a positive look: "Are there many Zen enlightenment hidden in the sweeping floor? Master Chongxu can only know the truth after experiencing it carefully!"

Taoist Master Chongxu laughed and said nothing.

But Li Bufu stopped talking.

He was really watching how the mute mother-in-law swept the floor.

After a long time, Master Fang Zheng said: "There are thousands of Buddhist principles in sweeping the floor, but you need to sweep it with your heart; however, like Master Li, who has been concentrating on his mind and watching others sweep the floor, it is even more patient!"

Li Bufu said: "I have never been patient! The reason why I can keep staring at her is because I can see something that others cannot see."

Taoist Master Chongxu said, "Oh? Please give me some advice."

Li Bufu said: "In the past, Master Fang Zheng and Master Chongxu, two of them talked about the realm of martial arts; and they all know that there is a realm above the master, called the gods."

Master Fang Zheng nodded to Taoist Master Xu.

Li Bufu said: "The realm of gods and man is rare since ancient times! They are the most outstanding people in every era and can only reach the peak. It is because it is no longer simply about the depth of internal strength and the essence of moves."

Taoist Master Chongxu said slowly: "I have read it in a note by Master Sanfeng. It is said that the most important thing in the realm of the gods is a spirit! A unique martial arts spirit!"

"Only with the power of this martial spirit, one can be considered a true god! Otherwise, no matter how deep the skill and how mysterious the internal energy are, one will have to stop before!"

Li Bufu said: "Not bad! The ancestor Sanfeng is very insightful! But do you know that some people may not have the power of gods, but they already have the power of the strange martial arts spirit, allowing them to exert strength beyond internal strength, moves, realm, strength and other factors in battle!"

Li Bufu once met such a person - Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng was once praised by the Sweeping Monk as the person who was most likely to be promoted to the realm of God at that time.

It is precisely because he has a unique martial arts spirit that he has always been able to win the battle and never lose!

In fact, Li Bufu later thought that Xiao Shiyilang also had a vague martial arts spirit; but unlike Xiao Feng's bravery, Xiao Shiyilang's martial arts spirit is closer to the survival instinct of a wild beast.

If it weren't for this kind of spirit, Xiao Shiyilang would probably have died many times.

"Martial Spirit..."

Master Chongxu heard this and couldn't help but ask: "What do you mean is that there is also a martial spirit in this mother-in-law's body technique?"

Li Bufu shook his head and said, "It's not exactly, but it's very close. She has not achieved great martial arts, so she can't form a true martial arts spirit."

Although the mute mother-in-law's martial arts skills are not bad, she has not yet reached the level of a master.

Li Bufu continued: "She is not deaf at all, but she can resist not communicating with others for decades, so she has practiced this body technique through this strange practice."

"She can actually hear what we say here clearly."

Master Dingyi couldn't help asking, "How do you know?"

Li Bufu jumped out of the attic, patted the dust on his body, and smiled and said, "If you stared at her intently for two months, you could observe this."

"It's just that's her secret, and we don't need to worry about it. I have to take care of what's happening in front of me."

Li Bufu jumped out of the pavilion, his figure swayed, and in the blink of an eye, he suddenly arrived in front of everyone.

Master Fang Zheng was slightly surprised by Taoist Master Chongxu.

"I know that some of you are here to discuss matters with me, and I can't hide, so please!"

As he said that, he invited Master Fang Zheng to rush Master Xu and Master Sanding to the peak of Jianxing to discuss matters, and the six people moved away immediately.

The cigarettes were slowly in the hanging temple, leaving only the mute mother-in-law. She seemed to have not yet realized it, but she still buried her head in sweeping the floor and sprinkling water to wipe the table.
