He defended it in every possible way, first changing the rules of the competition, and then stopping the competition, barely creating a "draw" result.
But unexpectedly... Zhou Ying'er unexpectedly gave up!
Where does this put his face?
Zhou Xing was somewhat surprised. He didn't expect this proud woman to admit defeat calmly.
"but."
Zhou Ying'er's rosy face showed a trace of confidence: "Ying'er's loss is only at this moment. I believe that next time we fight, I will win!"
Zhou Xing was stunned, but this Zhou Ying'er was quite confident. "Don't disbelieve it. My master said that tempering the body, unblocking the meridians, and refining the internal organs are just the entrance to the true path of cultivation, and are called the 'third level of entry'
." "When there is something going on in the villa, the number of brave men from the regiment is usually not more than half. During the busy farming season, those who are selected from the regiment to contribute to the villa will have to help the people who have been transferred to complete the farming work before they can manage their own fields."
Zhou Ying'er put on an old-fashioned look.
Entry level three?
Zhou Xing's expression condensed. He had vaguely heard this statement when he was in the sect.
Of course, no matter how the sect world is defined, warriors at the Tongmai stage and above are considered masters in the secular world and can gallop around.
"Only when you step into a higher level of 'Qi Transformation Realm' can you have a first glimpse of the great road. With the qualifications of ordinary mortals and semi-spiritual bodies, it is almost a luxury to hope to win the 'Qi Transformation Realm'." Zhou Xingyuan originally said.
I thought, this is the Zhou Dynasty after all, and the power of this clan is the largest controlling force in villages everywhere. Nowadays, the major clans in this villa account for the most important part, both in terms of population and people who discuss matters.
In order to prevent Baojia from becoming a vassal of the clan, we must break the tradition of helping our own clan first and looking after outsiders. Taking advantage of this opportunity to allocate large livestock, we took the opportunity to turn the Baojia into a farmer mutual aid group.
Firstly, it enriches the role of Baojia, and secondly, it avoids the rapid differentiation between the rich and the poor in the villa due to the huge difference between the men in the firsta.
The corners of Zhou Ying'er's mouth raised, her bright eyes swept over Zhou Xing, with a slight sense of superiority, as if she had determined her future destiny.
That look in his eyes made Zhou Xing feel inexplicably repelled and unhappy.
"Okay, okay! Ying'er is so open-minded. That's right! He is an expert in the Qi Transformation realm, and even his father has heard about it. In the world, he can be regarded as a great master."
The head of the family, Zhou Tianwei, smiled brightly.
Not long ago, Zhou Xing's strong performance almost made him feel guilty and self-blame.
At this moment, after listening to Zhou Ying'er's words, although these things would be a bit fanciful if placed outside the mountain, after all, in those places, the entire village and township have huge clan power and the land is more concentrated. But in the villa, the former time
The public land renting law has prevented uneven land occupation. As long as production can be relatively equalized, the entire villa will inevitably maintain the maximum number of homesteaders, and will have the most stable and broad governance foundation. Zhou Tianwei restored
belief.
Zhou Xing's current strength is indeed strong; but this kind of strength is only temporary and cannot last long.
"It's a pity... his semi-spiritual qualifications limit his future prospects."
"The head of the family made the right decision. If the Zhou family can devote all their efforts to cultivating a master of the 'Qi Transformation Realm', our family will probably become a famous family!"
Several clan elders communicated with each other and nodded frequently.
Zhou Tianwei's face turned red and he encouraged: "Ying'er, you must strive to become a master of Qi Transformation Realm. Even if my Zhou family spends all its resources." Everyone listened to Zhou Xing's suggestion and considered it carefully.
, after all, if it is decided, this will add a lot of things for the commanders to worry about. After everyone thought about it for a long time, no one can really say anything wrong. Even if some people are selfish, they feel that if they implement it, they will have to pay more.
Worrying and working more will not bring much in return, but this is so private that it is hard to say it out loud.
On the field.
Only Zhou Xing, as well as Zhou's father and Zhou's mother, remained silent.
"Is it the Qi Transformation Realm?"
week
The food was really good, so no one had any objections.
For the vast majority of low-level disciples, this is an unattainable existence. Generally speaking, only those with spiritual qualifications can hope to break through this level.
…
The night is very dark.
The weekly routine is as usual, first perform the inner breath of Yunsha several times.
Then, he took out the body tempering powder sent by his father during the day.
This body-tempering medicine powder is only the lowest-level "commoner's prescription", and its efficacy is poor. However, everyone discussed the details again, how much fodder each household will provide, the payment standards for the recipients, etc., these Zhou Xing
But I don’t understand. The main thing is that Uncle Zhou made the decision. After everyone had no objections, the vote was passed. Uncle Zhou, Uncle Wang, Huang Hai, Uncle Zhou, and Uncle Zhou were assigned to be responsible for allocating livestock. Zhou Jian was responsible for registering the livestock.
Zhou Xing also specifically asked the chiefs of each A to gather their families together after returning to explain the decision of the meeting.
No matter how bad it is, it's better than nothing.
"Anyway, from the last mission, there are still a hundred or dozens of second-grade Yuan stones. After returning to the sect, we will collect another formula."
Zhou Xingxin has made a decision.
He planned to try the effect of this "civilian prescription" first.
Gu Gu
Soon, the medicinal powder dissolved into a vat of boiling hot water, and a layer of thick black ink suddenly rolled up in the water.
Zhou Xing quickly sat down in the medicine bucket, and then began to discuss future actions. At this time, the powerless people were divided into two groups. One group was dominated by a young man. These people had heard Zhou Xing say the Hanzhong Army was about to fail a few days ago.
It is advocated to strike while the iron is hot. Anyway, the fighting ahead is intense. The Hanzhong Army will not dispatch large troops to escort food and grass. This time it has been done cleanly and the news will not spread to the army. It might as well take the opportunity to do it a few more times, so as to reserve more for the villa.
The supplies and training through fighting can also allow the team members to see the battlefield and start the "Bronze Statue Skill".
laugh!
In an instant, a layer of green smoke and heat appeared on his copper body surface.
After a while.
A slight numbing pain hit Zhou Xing's body surface, but he didn't take it seriously.
It's just that he's weird.
According to the "Bronze Statue Skill", any kind of body tempering liquid will be very painful when used.
嗗嗗
Strange sounds came from the surface of Zhou Xing's body. One group was dominated by those armor commanders. Although these people saw a lot of supplies seized, they felt that this kind of thing was not easy to do often. After all, the villa was weak and was discovered by the officers and soldiers.
If the villa brings trouble, then the gains outweigh the losses. After all, the failure of the Hanzhong Army is just speculation. It is like a tiny electric current.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. Yeguoyuedu can be used on both Android and Apple.]
"Um?"
A hearty feeling of comfort spread throughout his body, and Zhou Xing almost groaned in comfort.
Two hours later.
A bucket of liquid medicine turned from jet black to dull black, with some black residue remaining inside.
"Bronze body."
When Zhou Xing performed the "Bronze Statue Kung Fu", the skin all over his body took on a deep copper luster, and the skin on the body surface appeared harder and more delicate.
Faintly, the two schools of thought had their own reasons, and neither could convince the other. They argued back and forth, but in the end it all came down to Zhou Xing's idea.
Zhou Xing clearly remembers the defeat of the Hanzhong Army during this period, so he really doesn’t care about the revenge of the officers and soldiers. It’s just that the people in the village are all for stability. If they are injured because of grabbing some supplies,
Tuan Yong's life will definitely have a lot of negative effects. But if we don't take the opportunity to expand the strength of the villa now, once Hanzhong is occupied by the Shu army and settles down, the villa will have no development prospects.
He felt that his "Bronze Statue Skill" had improved a bit.
"Haha! The effect of this civilian prescription is not as bad as imagined,"
Zhou Xing was overjoyed.
Originally, the progress of his "Bronze Statue Skill" tended to be somewhat slow after the bronze was completed - although it was still very fast compared to ordinary people.
But tonight, after using the body quenching liquid prescribed by civilians, the rapid progress has returned to before.
For these doubts, Zhou Xing could only attribute it to the crystal heart and the mysterious transformation of his body. Everything cannot be measured by common sense.
Three days later.
Zhou Xing concentrated on practicing the "Bronze Statue Kung Fu" and used the body-tempering liquid prescribed by common people three times a day, morning, noon and night.
Anyway, after thinking about it, Zhou Xing said: "The failure of the Hanzhong Army is inevitable. There is no need to argue. The robbery of baggage can be done several times, but there is one thing. Every time you act, you must be cautious and ascertain the intelligence.
Act according to your ability and never take risks. For the people who respect themselves when transporting goods, we must distinguish the situation. Anyone who is willing to leave will, like last time, take the grain and put it back in the name of the Shu army. Those who are willing to stay will be asked to know the addresses of their families.
After that, those who have no problems will be brought to the villa, and those who have problems will be killed together with the officers and soldiers. The materials required for this prescription are only worldly treasures; with the strength of the Zhou family, it does not matter if they spend a little gold and silver.
superior.
This night.
Zhou Xing performed the "Bronze Statue Exercise" again and felt that the skin and muscles of his whole body were like a solid iron plate.
Buzz!
At the moment of exercise, the whole body seems to be coated with a layer of deep copper metal. The texture and the feeling of expansion of power reach a new level.
"The copper skin is completed!"
Zhou Xing looked ecstatic. He didn't expect that with the help of the body quenching liquid prescribed by common people, he could make rapid progress and reach the level of "Copper Skin Mastery".
[Copper Skin Dacheng]: The whole body is made of flesh and flesh, and can be killed by swords and swords below the Tongmai stage.
From then on, ordinary swords in the world basically lost their meaning to Zhou Xing!
This is definitely a leap in force!
"My body, transformed by the mysterious heart, is already as strong as a ferocious beast; once I use the 'Bronze Statue Skill' of 'Copper Skin Dacheng', I am afraid that I will directly cut the grass and root out the roots without having to breathe in. In addition, to be a brave man in the villa, I still need to practice,
Therefore, the Tuanyong is divided into three groups, one is outside, the other is on guard and support, and the other is training. The Tuanyong who are operating outside are led by Zhou Bao, Huang Shi, and Wang Tong, and the guarding Tuanyong are led by Zhou Can. Each time they change
Without changing the generals, you can overwhelm those in the Tongmai stage with average strength."
Zhou Xing deeply felt how powerful he was now.
Now, even if he were to fight head-on with the "Iron Brown Bear King", he would not be afraid at all.
Later.
After the "Bronze Statue Skill" was promoted to the Bronze Skin Dacheng, the progress of cultivation suddenly slowed down a lot.
Common people's prescriptions have almost lost their effect.
In this regard, we can only wait until we return to the sect and use the primeval stones to buy better ingredients for prescriptions.
"Now, eight more elite members of the Yellow Sea Territory are sent out of the valley to recruit blacksmiths, carpenters and other craftsmen as well as scholars in villages and towns to move into the villa for future use. When encountering young people who are scattered and fleeing, they are also encouraged to move into the villa.
.The war is about to enter the hinterland of Hanzhong. During this period, there will definitely be a large number of mountain people fleeing into the mountains. Tuanyong and Tuanlian people who train at home spend half the day practicing and the other half building houses or clearing land to prepare for the new refugees.
In addition to my "Bronze Statue Technique", I also need to make progress in the "Yunsha Boxing Technique"; if my cultivation can be improved to a higher level, then there will be some hope for the "Outer Sect Competition"."
Zhou Xing did not forget his goal.
Compete with the outer sect and become a disciple of the inner sect!
…
Early morning of the second day.
The top management of the Zhou family suddenly held an emergency meeting.
Most of the people present were the same group of people from the last banquet.
Zhou Xing and Zhou Yinger were also present.
"According to the news from the City Lord's Mansion, the 'Three Evils of Honghu' wanted by the imperial court have entered the territory of Xiangyang City..."
The head of the family spoke.
"The Three Evils of Honghu? They are the three evil men for whom the imperial court offers a reward of ten thousand gold?"
"It is said that these three evil spirits have some origins. The leaders of Tuanyong, big and small, listened to Zhou Xing's instructions and all applauded in unison. Although several family heads hesitated, no one objected. Uncle Zhou thought for a moment and said: "Zhou Xing
Sir, I'm just a mountain citizen. I don't understand the military affairs outside. Since the sir has said it, we have no objection. But sir, please put the safety of the villa first. Many experts have fallen into their hands.
superior."
Everyone started whispering.
The "10,000 taels of gold" offered by the imperial court is a huge fortune for the Zhou family.
"Three evil spirits?"
Zhou Xing was stunned, he had no interest in earthly gold.
However, the word "evil" gave him an inexplicable idea, and the energy and blood in his body vibrated.
"Now, the City Lord's Mansion has also issued a reward for the 'Three Evils of Honghu'. As long as the boss of the three evils, 'The Urgent Hand', is killed, an additional 'semi-treasure weapon' will be added, as well as a fertile territory in the wilderness south of the city."
The owner of the house suddenly smiled.
A semi-treasure? A fertile territory?
Among the people on the field, Zhou Xing looked at Uncle Zhou and said sincerely: "Uncle Zhou, everyone in the villa saved Zhou Xing's life. No matter what, we will never let the villa fall into danger. The situation outside,
It will be as I said, please rest assured, Uncle Zhou." As Zhou Xing spoke, he also prayed in his heart: Dear gods, I judged according to the history books. Although I am a little butterfly that has traveled through time, my wings
You haven't fanned it yet, but you must remember to let me rob you two more times, and then quickly let Zhou Jimi fail. The longer this drags on, the more dangerous it will be! It will explode. These two things,
Even for masters in the earthly world, such as Tongmai and Zang-refining stage, there is no small temptation.
Semi-treasure?
Zhou Xing thought of Le Feng's broken treasure weapon. Even the incomplete sword, the increase in combat power was astonishing.
"A semi-treasure weapon, placed in the secular world, is the top divine weapon. Only some famous craftsmen can create it. Its power and quality are close to that of a treasure weapon. In some aspects, it is not even inferior to a treasure weapon!
"
The head of the family explained.
These words made Zhou Xing's heart skip a beat.
One more semi-treasure weapon means one more means of attack, and it will be more convenient for future missions.
Although Zhou Xing said that he practiced boxing and kicking skills, not all boxing and kicking skills can be applied in all circumstances.
also.
The fertile territory with a bounty on it also has a certain appeal to Zhou Xing.
After returning to Xiangyang City, he was disappointed with the family's performance. How could others know what was in Zhou Xing's heart?
