"When you go this time, remember that you are only visiting local celebrities, and you may be invited to come and discuss martial arts with us. Don't wait to offend."
"Disciple, don't worry."
Zhong Shanjin looked at Li Mubai, who was already several shoulders taller than him. His face was as old as before, but his figure was not as tall as an ordinary person's. It was a sigh of relief.
He knew quite a bit about this disciple's temperament, but he was still not at ease, especially as his body had become stronger and more inhuman recently, gradually exceeding his imagination, and Li Mubai was receiving increasingly weird looks from the people around him, which inevitably affected his mind.
Zhong Shanjin was worried that his disciples would not be able to bear it, and did not want the sudden change to make him sensitive and suspicious. Fortunately, he stayed in the sect most of the time after the change, and rarely went out. The disciples had a certain understanding of the changes, but
Will be biased.
Perhaps getting along with his classmates was the same as before, which prevented Li Mubai from falling as worriedly as he had in his mind.
"This time, you, Senior Brother Mu Yu, and Senior Brother Chen Xiao are going to two other counties respectively. Among them, the one I cannot let go of the most is you..."
Li Mubai had no choice but to raise his thick palm and scratch the back of his head. It was not easy to refute this. After all, he knew very well what his temperament was like before.
In fact, compared to his master's worries, Li Mubai himself didn't feel any difference. Since he began to refine and practice the energy of blood, his body became stronger day by day.
He felt that although his current appearance was terrifying, it was actually related to his inability to control it proficiently. As long as he could master the energy and blood like martial arts moves and practice them like arms and fingers, he should be able to calm down and return to his original state.
Therefore, he did not care about other people's opinions, but found it novel. This attitude that was completely different from his usual attitude made him very interesting to watch many times.
When people's thoughts change, can they be considered to have experienced the ups and downs of the world?
In front of him, Zhong Shanjin was still chattering, telling him things he needed to pay attention to when going out. Li Mubai was wandering in his thoughts. It was not that he disrespected his teacher, but that for some reason his thoughts had been very easy to stray these days, and his thoughts were disturbing.
He mentioned it to Zhong Shanjin, but the latter couldn't explain it. He could only analyze it reluctantly, guessing that the essence, energy and spirit were originally one, but now the energy and blood were too strong, oppressing the spirit.
"Put these two books of "Zuo Forgetting Sutra" and "Three Hoops to Calm the Mind" away. Don't forget to read them more when you are on the road. It is always useful to study one or two. Taoists say this is called calming the mind and forbearing, and returning to the true state.
.”
Obediently taking the blue-sealed scroll, Li Mubai nodded in agreement.
"Let's go. This time I will polish my Qi and blood according to the deduced method. When you come back, I won't say that I have already taken this step."
There is a saying in martial arts circles about worshiping the top of the mountain. When I first arrived at Yi Jianmen, I was confused about the Chizhou area and it really needed to be taken care of.
However, there was a change in Daliang, and Zhongshan Jinwei paid more attention to the official career, and only selected a few well-known figures in the martial arts, who were either first-rate or senior martial arts masters who had studied martial arts for decades.
As for the rest, there are no plans yet. Yijian Sect does not intend to become the No. 1 tyrant in Chizhou, and Zhong Shanjin just wants to lead a group of disciples to practice martial arts and live a good life.
Several of the disciples arranged also had their own opinions. Not to mention Li Mubai's extraordinary strength, Mu Yu and Chen Xiao were also at the level of a second-rate dragon and tiger.
It can be called a master in Chizhou.
When he first came to this place, facing the chaotic situation, Zhong Shanjin still had some ideas to establish his power.
Save yourself from trouble in the future.
On the other hand, these veteran warriors who are specially selected also have the intention of cooperating in the future.
Manpower is sometimes scarce, and the accident that happened to his good disciple really worries Zhong Shanjin. But with only three or two big cats and kittens from Yijianmen, God knows when the clouds will clear and the sun will shine.
This time, he ordered a few people in advance to invite the seniors from each family and explore the bottom line. Those who have real talent and knowledge may as well throw out their trump cards, so as not to worry about them not being attracted.
I will follow you to the Yi Jianmen to discuss martial arts.
As for the power of qi and blood being stolen... he is not worried. Li Mubai is the only martial artist who has mastered qi and blood. No matter how he changes, he cannot avoid this disciple.
It was just too harsh for a young man to endure it. Zhong Shanjin didn't realize that the dozen or so times he failed before arriving in Chizhou meant that the road was blocked. He never gave up and still planned to give it a try.
He glanced at the hesitant disciple in front of him. In the past, Li Mubai had made him feel tired, but in the past few months, the sect had relocated, traveling along the way, and studying Qi and blood, but the relationship between master and disciple was much deeper than before.
So he smiled and shook his head.
"Don't worry, as a teacher you don't do anything you're not sure about."
"..."
Li Mubai sighed in his heart, how many times have you said this?
But he knew what the master meant. It was the desire of warriors to improve their martial arts. Seven or eight years ago, in Tongzhou, Zhongshan Jin came from a state with his courage to fight and his exquisite swordplay skills.
He stood out among the many second-rate warriors in the land.
First-class, this is already the limit that the middle-aged martial artist in front of me can achieve with his talent.
As for the upper levels of the top level, he could no longer reach it as his physical fitness was not as good as before, let alone the existence of only a grandmaster like a legendary figure who opened the way.
Li Mubai's change ignited the already dead embers in the middle-aged swordsman's heart.
The power of Qi and blood, this may be a new avenue.
There is no way Zhongshan Jin will give up.
The two of them had a tacit understanding of how difficult it was to take this step. Before Li Mubai left, he went to the other courtyard to discuss the matter with his senior brother Mu Yuyan who had not yet left.
Both of them knew the master's thoughts, and it was almost Zhong Shanjin's obsession to gain a glimpse of the way of martial arts.
With no choice, we had to work together and go to a Taoist temple more than a hundred miles away to seek a pill to nourish the heart.
It might be useful, I just hope it won't be used.
…
Thick smoke was everywhere in the county town.
After simply scooping a ladle of cool well water, Li Mubai took care of it for a while and then took Liu Da out of the yard.
Along with it, there is the gold and silver money that the latter has been thinking about for a long time.
Facing this invulnerable 'immortal', even if the other party didn't say anything, Liu Da didn't dare to hide it anymore. It seemed that the strong man was about to leave, and he couldn't survive alone in this hellish place.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Zhuang...Zhuangshi, this is my little thought, I hope you will accept it. I can't repay the kindness of saving my life. It's a pity that I am in jail now, so I can only use this
Please bear with the things that have come to stain your eyes, and I will thank you in the future."
"..."
Li Mubai lowered his head and looked at Liu Da, who was arrogant in front and respectful in the back. He was speechless for a moment. He really wasn't used to others treating him like this.
So he waved his hands and didn't take the life-saving sentence to heart. He just forgot about the generous reward and didn't bother to remember it.
As for the earthen jars filled with silver ingots and gold ingots that the other party brought to him...he accepted them according to his heart.
Although I used to be a gangster who hung out in Goulan Liquor Restaurant, in the past few months, I have heard many complaints from my senior brothers and masters, and I also know that the expenses of Yi Jian Sect are not small when they are just established, so it is not bad to make money.
Save people and get money.
He accepted the money with peace of mind, and Liu Da felt relieved when he saw the strong man casually wrapping several earthen jars together and accepting them.
They looked at each other with eyes that were close to each other.
Once you collect the money, it's no problem.
In fact, despite Liu Da's decisiveness in giving them away, these jars are actually worth more than half of his net worth.
But the pain in my body was a pain in my body. After experiencing the torture in the city for the past half month, and the experience of having my neck slashed with a knife by a thin bamboo pole and other inhumans just now, I felt somewhat relieved.
Besides, with such a good man by my side, I can finally save the rest of my fortune.
On second thought, Liu Dayi, who had narrowly escaped death, felt that he was not losing money, but was making a profit!
The two were walking on the street, with scattered and broken bodies on both sides, and occasionally they could see corpses lying on the roadside, stained with blood.
The cold winter wind blew against his face, and Liu Da couldn't help but shiver, rattling his teeth, and followed closely behind Li Mubai.
The latter walked calmly and had a calm demeanor.
When he came, he entered the city and suppressed all the rebellious people he saw, beating some and killing some. Some of them are still tied up with the county government, waiting to be punished.
Li Mubai did not search everywhere in the city, but only took Liu Da with him. Since he was a local and heard from his mouth that he had some reputations in the city, he asked Liu Da to appease the people in the city and organize them.
"Although it is winter now, it is not a problem for the body to stay outside for a long time, and the county town will eventually be rebuilt. You go and make arrangements first. I will wait at the county government office."
Liu Da does everything he can.
The two parted, and Li Mubai sat in the county office. After waiting for less than half an hour, a group of more than ten people came to the door.
Except for Liu Da, most of the others were in messy clothes and looked downcast. When they arrived, they didn't have to look at the crouching gangsters around them. At a glance, they saw the burly figure on the high hall.
The calves trembled, and everyone knelt down to worship.
Li Mubai simply said a few words, he was just passing by here, and he could be protected for a while, but not for a lifetime.
Arrangements in the county must be decided by the people in the city themselves.
At this moment, everyone in the city, including Liu Da, also understood this. Although they asked for help, they could not influence Li Mubai's thoughts, so they could only take one step at a time.
But after learning that the hero who single-handedly defeated the county town was about to leave, the people in the city were confused and failed to unite as one, so most of them chose to flee.
Liu Da and Li Mubai had expected this and were not surprised.
"Let's go."
After staying in the county town for two days, Mr. Donglin finally replied and said that he was going to visit Yijianmen together.
He sent Liu Da to his wife and daughter by the way, for the sake of the gold and silver given by him.
The journey was safe, but when the thief saw the tall and inhuman man from a distance, he was so frightened that he dared to stir up trouble.
Going round and round for another four days.
Duke Dong Lin and several disciples from Kaishan Martial Arts School accompanied Li Mubai back to Chizhou Yijianmen.
At this moment, Mu Yu and Chen Xiaoze had already returned.
However, both of them were single and did not bring anyone with them. Obviously, although they were second-rate warriors, they were not worthy enough in the eyes of famous celebrities. They were not as horrified as Duke Dong Lin when he saw Li Mubai directly.
He is nine feet tall, extremely strong, and invulnerable...
Just like something out of a myth or legend, the unusual visitor made Duke Donglin very interested in Yi Jianmen.
That's why I'm willing to travel all the way to get here.
"Hahaha, I've heard about Duke Donglin for a long time. It's a pleasure to meet him."
Zhong Shanjin smiled heartily and came to the door to receive him.
When he saw his master again after a few days, Li Mubai frowned slightly and smelled a bloody smell like rust.
On the side, Senior Brother Mu Yu nodded silently, acquiescing to his guess. Li Mubai's heart tightened, but after seeing that the calmness on the faces of the two senior brothers and many junior brothers and sisters did not seem to be fake, he relaxed slightly.
"Mubai, go and rest."
"Ling'er, Shan Wei, take everyone who opened the mountain martial arts hall to settle in the side room, deliver tea, don't be rude."
Zhong Shanjin gave a few instructions and then led Duke Dong Lin into the inner hall to talk softly.
…
"Master, he..."
In the corner, Li Mubai lowered his head and asked Mu Yu. Unexpectedly, the senior brother smiled and said, "Relax, master. Although he suffered some minor injuries this time, the harvest is not small."
Hearing this, the former was stunned, "Success?!"
Looking up, he saw the surprise on his junior brother's handsome face that didn't match his tall figure. Mu Yu couldn't help but stretch his eyebrows and said with a smile: "It worked."
"Third junior brother came back early. I heard from him that the master had succeeded in breaking through the barrier three days ago and condensed the power of qi and blood to occupy the Dantian and internal organs, which is very similar to what is in your body."
Similar? Keenly grasping these two words, Mu Yu explained it before Li Mubai asked.
It turned out that although the qi and blood successfully condensed by Zhong Shanjin this time were also produced from the flesh and blood in the body and circulated through the meridians, it was not as active as the force in Li Mubai's body, and the degree of strengthening of the body pales in comparison.
"At least our method is right and the direction is not wrong. After the breakthrough, the master quickly adapted and realized that there are many things that can be corrected in the previous training method. Once the improvements are completed, this Qi and blood training method will probably be released.
"
Hearing this, Li Mubai couldn't help but laugh and scratch his face, thinking that he had been able to generate Qi and blood for several months, but with the help of several teachers, he had not been able to make progress, and by some strange combination of circumstances, he had become like this.
In comparison, my level with the master is indeed very different.
"Okay, junior brother, don't be too discouraged. Look at your senior brother and me, haven't we been able to figure out the trick?"
Mu Yu laughed at himself and explained to Li Mubai. In fact, compared to martial arts talents, there are probably only two people in the Yi Jian Sect who can be truly considered to be graceful.
One is the sect leader Zhong Shanjin, who has reached the first-class level in his thirties, and the other is the junior disciple in front of him.
It's a pity that something unexpected happened at the beginning, otherwise how could the junior brother have stayed at the entry-level level of Tongjin.
The two chatted for a few more words, and then were taken to the inner hall by a junior brother who ran over.
"Nephew Li Xian's physique is so enviable!"
As soon as he entered the door, Duke Donglin sighed, and Zhong Shanjin on the side also smiled. The two of them seemed to have a good communication. Maybe they were both Xiangwu people and had the same resonance.
Bringing Li Mubai in front of him, the two old martial arts masters began to move their hands. At first, Zhong Shanjin lectured, and Duke Dong Lin listened and watched. Later, the two of them often argued and clashed with each other.
The atmosphere was enthusiastic, including Senior Brother Mu Yu on the side and Third Senior Brother Chen Xiao who came in later.
Only Li Mubai himself was touched here and there, and his handsome face looked strange and awkward.
