The sea is blue and the sky is blue, the breeze is slightly salty, and seabirds are flying overhead.
Standing on the deck of a seagoing ship, staring at the bow of the ship splitting the sea water, subconsciously gesturing back and forth with your hands.
Whether it's claws, fists, or palms, it's constantly changing, but its feet are like roots standing on the ground, and its tall body rises and falls with the rocking of the ship.
Every move and posture is condensed with strength but not revealed, the muscles and bones of the hands and feet are constantly trembling and squeezing each other, and the breathing rhythm is long and silent, training oneself silently.
"Brother Dong, we're almost there!"
At this time, the boss of the ship came over quickly and reminded loudly.
"Oh, are you here so soon?"
Wu Dong gently exhaled a breath of turbid air, stopped his posture and relaxed his body and mind.
"There are still dozens of miles to go to the private pier on the Jiao'ao side!"
"How do you know so well?"
“I’m used to running this route, so I know the stopping places along the way very well!”
"How is the situation over there in Jiao'ao? You might as well tell me, lest I accidentally commit any taboos in the past!"
"Brother Dong is joking, how can there be so many taboos?"
The captain laughed and said: "However, it is best not to mention foreigners after landing, let alone have any relationship with foreigners, otherwise it may cause unnecessary trouble!"
"That's it..."
Wu Dong thought thoughtfully, considering the historical information he knew, how could he not be clear about what was going on.
As Yan Zhendong guessed, the main purpose of this trip to Shandong was not to help friends, but to hide.
Didn't he receive two letters at the same time before?
One of them was naturally a letter asking for help from Yan Zhendong, which probably meant inviting Wu Dong to go to Shandong and stay for a while to help him restore the reputation of the Yan family.
Regarding Yan Zhendong's series of encounters and the methods described in the letter, he was speechless.
At this time, the situation in Shandong was quite complicated, and the relationship between the local people and the foreign churches that were popping up everywhere was quite bad, and it was about to explode completely.
In addition, the government and local tyrants and evil gentry are exploiting the local area, as well as bandits and bandits are wreaking havoc. In short, the situation in Shandong is quite chaotic.
When Yan Zhendong returned to his hometown, he was a little dumbfounded when he saw the surrounding environment.
I wanted to imitate the rise of the Foshan militia, but found that the environment simply did not allow it.
The powerful local forces were really beyond what a newly famous martial artist like him could handle.
This is the core area of the Beiyang system, and it is simply impossible to allow militia groups that do not belong to the Beiyang system to exist.
As for the student militia's desire to monopolize the bargaining power of vegetables, meat, and eggs in one place, although his martial arts skills are sufficient, he does not have the ruthless means and temperament.
Not to mention, there are many masters here in Shandong. Among the surging boxer groups, there are many famous masters, some of whom even Yan Zhendong is not sure he can win.
As for doing business, not to mention that he himself is not that good, and the current environment in Shandong does not allow it.
Even if he comes up with a best-selling product, he won't be able to keep it.
As a result, in the end, they could only use money to buy land, and then gather together the Yan clan that was about to disperse.
You can rely on farming to maintain food and clothing. If you want to develop, unless you become a big landowner with tens of millions of acres of fertile land, you still have to look at God's face.
In short, after Yan Zhendong returned to his hometown, except for getting to know the largest group of boxers in his hometown, he had almost no outstanding performance.
He had no choice but to tell Wu Dong in a letter and asked Wu Dong to come to Shandong to help revitalize the Yan family.
At first, Wu Dong only sympathized with Yan Zhendong's experience and had no intention of traveling thousands of miles to Shandong to help.
Just kidding, he is still busy with his own affairs, so he has no time to pay attention to things in Shandong. He doesn't want to cause trouble for himself.
Shandong boxing chaos is no joke.
There are too many things mixed in, and if you don't do it well, you may become a target. Not only the foreigners are shouting and killing, but the court and local officials will not give up easily.
However, another letter gave him a headache...
It was written from the headquarters of the Nanyang Tiandihui, and the meaning was very clear. It was that Wu Dong had made such a big name in Nanyang, and not only was he highly skilled in martial arts, he was also very smart, and he was able to do business in collusion with foreigners.
They were very curious about Wu Dong himself and the temporary camp behind him, and proposed the idea of sending high-level officials to meet and visit. In addition, they wanted to attract Wu Dong to join the Nanyang Tiandi Society.
In order to show sincerity, the Nanyang Tiandi Club specifically inquired about Wu Dong's preferences and sent a boxing manual along with the letter - "Five-Shaped Dragon Fist"!
This is really a big deal!
There is no need to explain the origin of the Tiandihui, but the origin of the Five-Shaped Dragon Fist is extraordinary.
Previously, Wu Dong obtained the other four-shaped boxing records of the five-shaped boxing except the dragon shape. Naturally, he hoped to collect the five-shaped boxing records, so he inquired about the whereabouts of the dragon-shaped boxing records.
After this inquiry, I found out that the Dragon Fist boxing manual had always been in the hands of the original Zheng family, and it was the most important martial arts inheritance in the hands of the Tiandihui.
However, after the Zheng family surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, the Longquan boxing manual disappeared.
Unexpectedly, this thing was still in the hands of the Tiandihui, and in order to win over him, a newly rising warrior, they directly used it as a bargaining chip.
Just by browsing through it, he knew how precious the Dragon Fist manual was. It was a boxing manual that could directly exercise the spine.
According to the boxing manual, practicing to a high level can even achieve the purpose of cleansing the marrow!
Tsk…
Even if the description of the boxing score is exaggerated, it is still quite remarkable.
Wu Dong didn't have any bad feelings towards the Tiandihui.
However, he has no intention of joining right now, especially when his temporary camp is booming.
Even if you want to join, you have to wait until your subordinates' power reaches a bottleneck stage.
Otherwise, if the relationship with the Tiandihui is too close at this time, it will inevitably become its pawn and thug in the fight for Nanyang interests. This is absolutely unavoidable.
The Tiandihui directly took out the Dragon Fist manual, which was considered sincere. It was impossible to pretend to turn a blind eye.
It was impossible to hide the location of the temporary camp from the powerful Tiandihui, and he had never meant to hide it.
Since he didn't want to come into contact with the Heaven and Earth Society at this time, he could only choose to hide out temporarily.
At this time, Yan Zhendong's invitation letter is naturally the best excuse.
He responded to Yan Zhendong immediately and agreed to his invitation. He planned to take a boat directly to Shandong to help after finishing handling the temporary camp.
This was the main reason why he rushed to Shandong this time, and he had no intention of deceiving Yan Zhendong. When he got there, he would naturally not be stingy about helping.
Isn't it just to revive the prestige of the Yan family? Wu Dong still has some ideas.
While on the ship, he did not relax at all, but continued to practice the five-shaped boxing technique.
For some reason, he just wanted to do a five-shape integration, and wanted to see if there were any surprises?
Perhaps it was because he had read too many fantasy novels in his modern life that his imagination was widened. Whenever he had free time on the ship, he would constantly switch to five-shaped boxing techniques to practice.
Dragon, snake, tiger, crane, leopard, constantly changing the moves and routines of the five-shaped boxing. While mastering this training mode, I also carefully understand the subtle changes in the body.
He had been floating at sea for more than half a month, and he had been thinking about it for such a long time. Except for eating, sleeping and necessary rest and relaxation, he spent the rest of his time on it.
Unknowingly, the already surprisingly large appetite increased again.
At the same time, he found that the effect of his own training was obviously much stronger than the single five-shaped boxing.
For example, Ming Jin's control has improved in just over half a month.
If he was still new to Ming Jin when he first boarded the ship, now he is already at the peak of his early strength.
Especially Dragon Fist, the effect of cultivating the spine is really obvious.
After exercising carefully for more than ten days, the speed at which my hands, feet, and waist can gather strength, as well as the efficiency of my strength output, have all improved significantly.
On the outside, his attack power is more fierce and domineering.
When a punch was thrown in the air, it was no longer the small sound before, but a clear and crisp sound.
I did some experiments when no one was around, but I didn't mean to show off my strength on my own initiative. It's better not to let outsiders see clearly my own strength.
Without further ado, with the shout from the boss of the ship, the ship, which was originally riding the wind and waves at a high speed, slowly lowered its sails and then landed quickly.
This sea-going ship was not owned by Wu Dong's temporary camp. His two sea-going ships were not familiar with the northern route.
Similarly, the sea-going ship is not steam-powered, but a pure sailing ship. The weather and currents have a great influence on the voyage.
Wu Dong didn't have much feeling, and he didn't think it was a big deal to take such a ship, as long as he could reach the destination smoothly on time.
Soon, standing on the bow deck of the ship, he clearly saw the Jiao'ao area, which was also known as the first-tier island city in later generations.
At this point, this place is nothing more than an undeveloped, deserted land.
The ship's speed became slower and slower, and it suddenly turned into a hidden water area, and slowly stopped in front of an inconspicuous trestle.
The sailors on the ship quickly set up the pedals, and Wu Dong and the ten capable men who gathered around him got off the ship directly with their belongings.
If they weren't worried about scaring the ship's boss and sailors, the ten capable men who followed would have wanted to take out the quickies stored in the long wooden box.
That's right, Wu Dong directly brought ten well-trained fast shooters this time.
Five of them are veterans who came from the Black Flag Army and have rich combat experience, and can deal with most emergencies.
The other five were confidants who were very talented in marksmanship and accomplished in martial arts. They were all members of the Foshan militia, and were direct descendants of the direct lineage.
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall.
Knowing that Shandong was like a powder keg at this time, if he didn't take precautions, who knew what tragedy would happen?
In this era, martial arts with fists, feet, swords, guns, and sticks are all the competition in the world. Ten new quick grabs are more than enough...
Thank you brothers for your rewards and monthly ticket support, I won’t thank you individually.
