Time flies, it has been more than half a month since Li Mu arrived here, and Lin Zhennan and his wife still have not returned from Guangxi. With just a few skills, they know that they have little potential in the future, and they are getting tired of practicing every day, so they want to go out for a walk.
It had been so long since he had been out of the house. When he walked to the door, Li Mu realized the majesty of Fuwei Escort Agency.
The first is the red lacquer door of the mansion. There are copper nails the size of teacups on the door. The plaque on the top of the door reads "Fuwei Escort Agency" in four large gold characters, and the two small characters "General Number" are written across the bottom.
There were two rows of benches at the entrance, and eight men in well-dressed suits were sitting on them. They all had straight backs and showed a heroic spirit.
Seeing Li Mu, the eight men immediately stood up and shouted: "Young escort chief."
Li Mu smiled and nodded, and walked out of the door. On the two stone altars on the left and right of the door, there were two flagpoles about two feet high, with green flags flying on the top.
The flag on the right is embroidered with yellow silk thread, with a majestic lion showing its teeth and claws. The flag flutters in the wind, and a pair of bats embroidered with black silk thread spread its wings above its head. The flag on the left is embroidered with the four black characters "Fuwei Escort Bureau".
The silver hook and the iron stroke are extremely strong.
After walking out of the escort office, he randomly chose a direction and walked on the bluestone road. Li Mu began to appreciate the ancient city in front of him.
After walking along the street for a while, he suddenly found that the alley in front of him looked a bit familiar. He was stunned for a moment before Li Mu realized that it was Xiangyang Lane where the old residence of Lin Ping's family was located!
Remembering the evil-fighting sword manual hidden inside, Li Mu turned around and walked in.
According to memory, a two-door courtyard with white walls and dark tiles soon came into view. Li Mu did not bring a key, and Lin Zhennan only came here once during the holidays during the holidays.
Considering it was his own house, he didn't have to worry about anything. He took a breath, slightly bent his legs, jumped up, put his hands on the edge of the wall, and jumped up to the top of the wall. Looking around, he saw a jump from the wall.
Jumping down, we came to this courtyard with two entrances.
After walking around, I found that although the yard was old, there was not much dust. It could be seen that Lin Zhennan cleaned it every time he came over.
Li Mu walked to the inner courtyard and faintly smelled the smell of incense ash. Following the scent, Li Mu came to the outside of a wing. There was a lock on the door. Li Mu opened the window next to him and looked inside. It turned out to be a
Buddhist temple.
So, this is the Buddhist hall where the sword manual for warding off evil spirits is stored.
Li Mu turned through the window and entered. The Buddhist hall was empty. There was an offering table in front, with an incense burner, wooden fish, bells, and a stack of Buddhist scriptures placed on it.
In the middle of the Buddhist hall, there is an ink painting hanging. It is a portrait of Bodhidharma who has been facing the wall for nine years. The brushwork is simple and rough, but it has both form and spirit.
Li Mu saw Patriarch Nadharma holding his left hand behind his back and pointing the index finger of his right hand at the roof. After a moment of identification, he realized that the evil-repelling sword manual was hidden under a piece of dust on the roof.
He bent his legs slightly, jumped up, climbed up the roof beam with both hands, and climbed up easily. He stretched out his arms and reached out to grab, and sure enough, he caught a soft piece of clothing in his hand. It was accompanied by a burst of dust and
The soil rustled down, and it was the cassock with the sword manual written on it to ward off evil spirits.
Li Mu jumped down along the beam and began to look at the things in his hands. This cassock, which recorded the sword manual to ward off evil spirits, was a red outer covering. It was thin and soft, made of fine silk. It looked quite weird. Who would know that?
I thought of someone using cassocks to record martial arts secrets.
Come to think of it, Lin Yuantu was sent by Zen Master Hongye to Mount Huashan to investigate the peeping of the Sunflower Book. He had nothing to offer. After discussing with Yue Su and Cai Zifeng every day, in order not to forget and to keep it secret, he put his
I wrote down my insights on my cassock, and now I have this sword manual to ward off evil spirits.
Li Mu carefully cleaned up the traces on the ground, climbed up to the beam again, and cleaned and covered the roof again, so that Lin Zhennan would not find anything unusual when he came here later.
After leaving the old house, Li Mu did not stay outside and returned directly to the inner house in the backyard of Fuwei Escort Agency.
When he came to the side room, he told others not to disturb him, picked up his cassock, and then studied the legendary sword manual to ward off evil.
After reading it, it turns out that it is indeed subtle and mysterious, and every word is precious. Some of the martial arts concepts are so high-level that no one has ever published them before. It is indeed the legendary sword manual to ward off evil.
Later, Li Mu spent more than half a day using the study cards, reciting silently, and memorized the entire evil-fighting sword manual.
Although he does not know how to practice, the martial arts principles described here will be of great benefit to his future martial arts practice, and can also improve his martial arts literacy and increase his martial arts foundation.
After finishing these tasks, Li Mu sighed softly, lit the cassock on the candle, threw it into the charcoal basin, and watched the cassock turn into a ball of ashes. From then on, the evil-repelling sword manual that became famous in the world and attracted the prying eyes of countless people was destroyed.
The next morning, Li Mu once again practiced the sword technique to ward off evil spirits. The sword technique he performed this time was slightly different from the previous days, but it was a little faster, a little more ethereal and cold.
Although the exercises in the anti-evil sword manual cannot be practiced, in addition to the exercises, some martial arts principles and some techniques for exerting force in conjunction with the anti-evil sword techniques can be absorbed.
Although it cannot be compared with the original evil sword manual, it is three times more powerful than before.
More than twenty days have passed. During these days, Li Mu has been practicing Zhengyang Gong hard while taking a lot of medicinal foods and supplements to strengthen the body and strengthen the body to replenish the energy and vitality consumed by the body.
Under the action of the two phases, the internal force is increasing day by day.
The first level of Zhengyang Gong is an introduction to internal skills and is easy to practice. Lin Pingzhi has been at this level for two years and has a solid foundation. Coupled with the rapid progress of more than a month, the first level is becoming more and more perfect.
On this day, after Li Mu had finished practicing Heaven-shaking Palm in the backyard martial arts field, he suddenly felt a jump in his Dantian. Based on the experience described by Lin Zhennan, as well as his own understanding and intuition, he realized that the Zhengyang Gong was at its peak and the opportunity for a breakthrough had arrived.
Li Mu didn't dare to delay, so he went to a nearby pavilion, found a futon and sat down cross-legged. With his five hearts facing the sky, he eliminated all the distracting thoughts in his mind. He took a few breaths to straighten his inner breath. The second level of Zhengyang Gong.
The formula emerges in the mind, guiding the true energy to circulate according to the second level of "Zhengyang Gong" training method.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content that follows! As an orthodox internal skill and mental method, Zhengyang Gong is peaceful and stable. As long as the heat is right, breakthrough will become a matter of course.
As a stream of true energy rises in the Dantian and merges into the true energy of the Zhengyang Gong on the first level, under the guidance of Li Mu, the internal force circulates along the route of the second level, and the blocked meridians and acupuncture points are
They were also washed away one by one, along the meridians, going round and round, running endlessly.
For a moment, as the true energy circulated faster and faster, Li Mu felt that he was holding a breath in his chest, and he couldn't help but let out a long roar, which was heard far away.
As soon as the voice fell, he heard a burst of noise from the front yard, and then the sound of footsteps. Lin Zhennan ran over with a face full of surprise.
"Pingzhi, your internal strength has broken through."
When the internal strength is broken through, if the breath accumulated in the chest is not released, it will often let out a long roar unconsciously. Lin Zhennan once told Lin Pingzhi about this experience, and he himself has experienced it.
Hearing the whistling sound, even though he had just arrived home from Guangxi after a thousand-mile journey, he couldn't help but come over to check. When he saw Li Mu sitting cross-legged under the pavilion practicing his martial arts, even though he was shocked, he still didn't know that he had achieved a breakthrough in his internal energy.
Li Mu smiled and said: "A breakthrough!"
Lin Zhennan happily clasped his hands and laughed: "Okay! Good! You are indeed my Qilin'er."
Then he waved his hand and ordered the escort leader Zheng next to him: "Old Zheng, tell me to go down and hold a big banquet today to give Pingzhi a good celebration."
Chief Bodyguard Zheng's face was filled with joy: "Okay, Chief Bodyguard, I'll do it right now!"
…
Early the next morning, Li Mu got up to practice martial arts as usual. When he arrived at the inner martial arts arena, Lin Zhennan was already waiting here.
Li Mu said: "Dad, why are you here?"
Lin Zhennan laughed and said: "I heard someone say that you have been practicing extremely hard during this period. You get up early every day and practice from dawn to dusk. My son has worked hard."
Li Mu said: "Dad! The child is not working hard, but actually enjoying it."
Lin Zhennan said: "Oh! If you are so motivated, no wonder the kung fu has advanced so quickly. Let me try again to see if you have fallen behind in other kung fu. Take the move."
As he spoke, he picked up a dead branch and used the "Meteor Fall" move, which suddenly hit Li Mu on the shoulder. Lin Zhennan often tested Lin Pingzhi's kung fu unexpectedly, and he was not surprised.
Seeing the move, Li Mu sank his left shoulder, turned around, and walked around behind Lin Zhennan. He also picked up a dead branch and stabbed it at Lin Zhennan's vest, which was exactly the move of "flowers blooming to see the Buddha".
Lin Zhennan said happily: "Okay!"
Then, he parried with his backhand and counterattacked with the move "playing the flute on the river".
Li Mu responded with a move "Purple Qi from the East" to dismantle it.
…
After the two of them played the seventy-two evil sword techniques, Lin Zhennan felt greatly relieved, stroking his beard and said happily: "Okay, okay! Not only has his internal strength improved to a higher level, but his sword skills have also improved greatly. He is worthy of being my Qilin."
Son."
Li Mu could only say: "My father and mother work so hard on weekdays, and I just have to endure a little hardship in practicing. It doesn't matter."
Lin Zhennan was even more happy, and after a while he spoke again: "Normally, I don't talk to you about the affairs of the escort agency, for fear that you won't understand. Now it seems that dad is worrying too much. Daddy is doing this.
The burden will eventually be transferred to your shoulders, and I have to tell you something about the escort agency from now on, so as not to be blind in the future."
He said solemnly: "Child, you have to remember that we, three generations of escort agents, are in today's situation thanks to the prestige your great-grandfather achieved back then and the martial arts inherited from our family.
Nowadays in the world, when the words 'Fuwei Escort Agency' are mentioned, everyone will raise their thumbs and say good luck! So majestic!"
"But you have to remember that in the world of martial arts, reputation accounts for 20%, kung fu accounts for 20%, and the remaining 60% depends on friends in black and white. Think about it, the escorts from Fuwei Escort Agency
If we travel through nine provinces by car, if we have to fight with others every time, how can we have so many lives to fight for?"
"Even if we win every battle, as the saying goes, if you kill a thousand enemies and injure yourself eight hundred, if there are casualties among the bodyguards, just to provide pensions to their families, the money collected from the bodyguards will not be enough. What will be left for our possessions?"
So? So, for those of us who want to be in the escort business, we first need to be familiar with people and have broad hands. This word 'friendship' is sometimes more important than the skill of real swords and guns."
Li Mu nodded silently. What Lin Zhennan said still makes some sense. Jianghu is not only about fighting and killing, but also about worldliness. It's a pity that your own skills are not strong enough. If you encounter someone who doesn't want to tell you about worldliness, you can't do anything about it.
Okay. After all, this is a world of martial arts, and it all depends on your skill.
Lin Zhennan was very pleased to see Li Mu listening attentively, and continued with some complacency: "The martial arts under your father's hands cannot be better than that of your great-grandfather, and may not be as good as your grandfather. However, this ability to run an escort agency,
But it can be said that the Qiang Ye defeated the ancestors. From Fujian to the south to Guangdong, to the north to Zhejiang, and to the south of Zhili, the foundation of these four provinces was created by your great-grandfather."
"Lianghu, Jiangxi and Guangxi, and the newly established Henan. The world of these five provinces was created by your father and me. If there is any secret? To put it bluntly, it is just 'make more friends and make fewer knots'
There are only eight characters for "enemies". Fuwei, Fuwei, the word "Fu" is at the top and the word "Wei" is at the bottom. That means blessing is more important than prestige. Blessing comes from the eight characters "make more friends and make fewer enemies"
Come on, if it were changed to 'Weifu', it would become domineering and blessing. Haha, haha!"
Li Mu didn't find it very funny and just listened silently.
Lin Zhennan got excited, but did not care about Li Mu's reaction, and continued: "As the old saying goes, after winning Long, look back to Shu. But your father has won Yu, and then look back to Lu. Let's go north from Fujian, passing through Zhejiang
, we’ll stop when we reach Nanzhili!”
"Now that Henan is operating, your father and I will open up business routes to Shandong next. Have you heard of the Taishan Sect? It is one of the famous Five Mountains Sword Sects. During the holidays in the past two years, I have sent escorts there.
They accepted the gift, and as long as they take the route of the Taishan Sect, the trade routes in Shandong will be stable."
Li Mu was just thinking about how to start studying abroad when the topic came to his door. He quickly said: "Dad, I heard that the Wuyue Sword Sect is a powerful force comparable to Shaolin and Wudang, especially the Huashan Sect. It is very powerful. How about punches that are better than those in Shaolin?"
, the sword comes out of Huashan, the Huashan sword technique is unparalleled in the martial arts world.”
"How does our family's evil-fighting swordsmanship compare to Huashan's swordsmanship?"
Lin Zhennan was a little confused, why did he involve his own martial arts?
He quickly said: "Where did you hear these rumors? The Huashan sect was really powerful in the past, but it is no longer good. I heard that there was a big chaos, and even the position of leader of the Five Mountains Alliance was given to the Songshan sect."
Li Mu said: "So the Huashan Sect is just not good now. It was really powerful before."
Lin Zhennan said: "Of course, the Huashan Sect was once famous in the martial arts world, catching up with Shaolin Wudang, and the Huashan Swordsmanship is indeed very powerful."
"However, our family's evil-repelling sword skills are not bad. Your great-grandfather Yuantugong used his seventy-two evil-repelling sword skills to challenge the martial arts world with his sword, and he was very famous."
Li Mu said: "Dad, I heard that those famous sects are very good at cultivating their disciples. They have good teachers and friends to give advice, and there are brothers and sisters who compete with each other. The disciples all have a solid foundation and make rapid progress. I want to go out to learn skills."
Lin Zhennan wanted to say that your father and I will also train you in martial arts, which is no worse than those of the big sects, but he couldn't say this. Although he usually dealt with ordinary people in the world, for those disciples of the big sects who came and went
, he also knows that it is indeed very powerful. The sect that has been passed down for hundreds of years and the methods of training disciples are not comparable to him.
After a moment of silence, he said: "You are still young, wait until you grow up."
Li Mu said: "It's too late when you grow up. Those famous sects who accept disciples have not carefully cultivated them since childhood. Who will accept them when they grow up?"
Lin Zhennan was silent for a moment, then hesitantly said: "There's no rush, I want to discuss this matter with your mother."
Li Mu took it as Lin Zhennan agreed and looked happy: "Thank you, dad. I want to go to Huashan to learn swordsmanship, okay?"
Lin Zhennan was stunned: "Huashan? No, Huashan has declined now, and only the gentleman Mr. Jianyue and his wife are left to support the appearance."
Li Mu said: "Didn't you say that Huashan was very powerful before?"
Lin Zhennan said: "That was before? Not anymore!"
Li Mu said: "Since they were so powerful before, even comparable to Shaolin and Wudang, it means that their martial arts are powerful. Even if they are lonely now, their family background is still strong."
"Besides, what are you afraid of when you are lonely? When the curtain falls, there will be no manpower available. When you meet good disciples, you will train them carefully. Those secrets of secret skills are also willing to be practiced by disciples, and there will not be so many disciples competing for them."
Lin Zhennan blinked and felt that what he said made some sense. He had also seen the power of the Huashan Sect when all the swordsmen came out of Huashan. No one in the martial arts sect dared to block it. Back then, it was chasing Shaolin Wudang.
Although such a sect has declined, its heritage remains. As long as the disciples are properly trained, it can be revived at any time.
The Huashan Sect is now in need of people, and they are not stingy about passing on the secrets and secrets to their disciples. Mr. and Mrs. Junzi Jianyue are quite famous for their chivalry, and their reputation in the world is very good. It is indeed a good place.
Li Mu then added fuel to the fire: "Dad, haven't you always wanted to expand the scale of Fuwei Escort Agency? If I join the Huashan Sect, the trade routes in Shaanxi will be opened. As the gateway to the northwest, the trade routes in Shaanxi will be opened, and the whole business will be opened up."
The northwest region has almost opened up."
"Besides, Huashan is one of the Five Mountains Sword Sect. It is said that the Five Mountains Sword Sect is connected with the same spirit. Don't you want to open up the trade route in Shandong? When I join the Huashan Sect and become a disciple of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, we and Taishan
Pai is one of our own, right?"
"In addition, the Hengshan Sect in Shanxi is also one of the Five Mountain Sword Sects. With this relationship, it will be easier to open up trade routes in Shanxi."
"Besides, since our family has this relationship with the Five Mountains Sword Sect, will those green forest bandits have any scruples when we go out as escorts in the future..."
Li Mu lied about whether the Five Mountains Sword Sect was so harmonious and whether the other sects would try to save the Huashan Sect. Lin Zhennan didn't know these inside stories, but he felt that these words were spoken to his heart. If Pingzhi could join,
Huashan Sect, then...
After thinking for a long time, Lin Zhennan patted Li Mu.
"Okay, dad knows about this, and I will discuss it with your mother."
Li Mu pretended to be happy: "Thank you, dad!"
Lin Zhennan nodded, stroking his long beard, and walked towards the inner house. He couldn't agree to this matter, and he still had to deal with his wife!
Li Mu looked at Lin Zhennan's retreating figure and knew that the matter was probably done.
