In just three days, the news that the famous Black Wind Village was destroyed by the Xiaoyao Three Heroes had already reached Luoyang City.
Unexpectedly, the arrogant Heifeng Village had just been defeated by someone on the front foot, and then was leveled by someone on the back foot. It was really satisfying, very satisfying.
Finally, there was no need to worry about Heifeng Village's revenge. In their ecstasy, the disciples of Shennong Baicao Sect couldn't help but find out that Huang Xiaoshi ran hundreds of miles at night to intercept and kill Heifeng Village.
After Shi Yi heard this rumor, he specially found the disciples of Shennong Baicaomen, and then returned to the ruined temple with more than a dozen officials.
Under the guidance of the disciples, everyone dug out the filled soil again, and as expected, more than a dozen corpses wearing Heifengzhai clothes were unearthed. Later, everyone found more than a dozen discarded long knives in the river valley.
This matter once again aroused heated discussion in Luoyang City.
The wife of the disciple who was hacked to death by bandits in Dashibao finally knew how her husband died.
I saw her wearing linen and mourning, kneeling on the street with her children and kowtowing to the Shennong Baicao Gate.
When everyone saw it, they had mixed feelings in their hearts.
You must know that when Huang Xiaoshi intercepted and killed the bandits in Heifeng Village, it was when Heifeng Village's momentum was at its highest.
He was alone, running hundreds of miles at night, not only intercepted and killed an entire group of Black Wind Village bandits, but also rescued more than a dozen kidnapped disciples. More importantly, there was no news about this incident.
…
"How about Huang Xiaoshi's martial arts?"
"Sister, don't be fooled by that boy.
That day, I saw with my own eyes that Wujie was chased and beaten by Huang Xiaoshi.
No! I definitely didn’t release the water, and I wouldn’t even dare to release the water with 800 taels of silver.”
"Have you found out his true identity?"
"I figured it out.
The origin of this kid is very simple. He is a little beggar picked up by Gong Guangjie on the street. However, Gong Guangjie always praises everyone he meets, saying that he is a martial arts genius.
His martial arts and internal strength are those of Shennong Baicaomen, and his martial arts are chicken claw skills learned from a chicken."
"Oh? This guy is really not that simple. I underestimate him. Let's recruit him for this mission."
"Okay, eldest sister."
…
In the dense forest northwest of Luoyang.
Dongfang Weiming is looking for prey in the forest with a hardwood bow and a pot of short arrows on his back.
Hunting is Wei Ming's old skill, and now practice makes perfect.
On that day, Heifeng Stronghold was defeated, and the silver reward calculated by the imperial court turned out to be thousands of taels.
This also shows how many evil things Heifeng Village has done.
You know, Qiu Ba, who has achieved the highest reputation, and his twelve brothers, only have a reward of fifty taels in total.
The silver reward was too much, so Gu Yuexuan and the other two discussed it and simply handed the reward to their master Wu Xiazi together.
I have been eating for nothing in Xiaoyao Valley for so many years, and today I finally made my money back.
This is a sense of pride after earning the first money in life. This sense of pride also represents the most important first step a person has taken towards independent growth, which cannot be measured by money.
After Wu Xiazi accepted the gift from her disciple with a smile, she flew the official ticket with the official seal and inserted it into the pages of the bookshelf.
You can redeem this kind of official ticket at any time. There is no rush now, since Wu Xiazi is not short of money anyway.
Xiaoyao Valley is a top-notch martial arts sect.
Sometimes, in addition to the level of martial arts, the size of a martial arts sect also has an important indicator, which is its financial resources.
New sects in the Jianghu generally work for money, such as running escorts, looking after homes and nursing homes, or even working as thugs to earn money, such as the Black Tiger Hall that Huang Xiaoshi encountered before and the Changhong Escort Bureau in Luoyang now.
These sects are still in the initial stage of capital accumulation and can only engage in high-risk industries where life is the capital.
There are casualties in eating and playing, and even if there is a constant supply of new blood, there is no telling how long the new sect can last.
After emerging sects have struggled through the entrepreneurial period and finally saved a small fortune, most of them will take the road of making stable money, usually by opening shops or buying land for rent.
Only with continuous and sufficient financial support can a sect prosper in the long term.
Although the Xiaoyao sect has always had a tradition of division, that refers to the martial arts point of view.
If anyone dares to take advantage of the Xiaoyao sect, no matter who he is, the first thing to do is for all the brothers to rush forward and break his three legs.
Since Taoist Miaoshou immigrated to the Central Plains from the Tianshan Mountains, and after hundreds of years of accumulation, Xiaoyao Valley has hundreds of acres of paddy fields and dry land.
All these fields were rented to displaced farmers at low rent, and the small village at the foot of the mountain was actually established by the tenants of Xiaoyao Valley.
Over time, Xiaoyao Valley was originally the name of the sect, but gradually became the name of this valley.
Since Xiaoyao Valley never openly recruits disciples, the tenants who rent the fields in Xiaoyao Valley only know that their master is an old Taoist who likes to say "Xiaoyao" all day long, but they never expected that when he was over eighty years old, the old Taoist with white hair and childish face would still be the same as today.
He is one of the top martial arts masters, and he has never thought about why even the people in the big city of Luoyang are suffering from banditry, and Xiaoyao Valley has not encountered even a bandit in the past hundred years.
Because the terrain is good, the land rent is low, and there is no danger of banditry or war, Xiaoyao Valley is not big, but its annual output is quite rich, and the land rent paid every year is not a small amount.
Becoming a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect actually meant becoming a rich young master.
This is why Wulin Zhengdao has the obligation to consciously maintain peace, because they are all property owners.
Local peace is the basic guarantee for their property and income.
However, Wei Ming has never had the consciousness to leap from a poor boy to a third young master.
There are very few people in Xiaoyao Valley, and no matter how much the disciples spend on martial arts training, they can't spend all their money. Wuxiazi is the seven hermit masters who often help Wangyou Valley.
Speaking of skills, each of the Seven Sages of Wangyou is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also has a unique skill. However, they all use their unique skills for their own interests and have no business acumen. It is not that they have to worry about running out of food from time to time, but they have to eat
It is normal to have the last meal but not the next meal.
Compared to being generous to his old friends, Wu Xiazi is more strict with his apprentices. In addition to taking care of food and drink, the three apprentices only give out some red envelopes during the Chinese New Year. At other times, they make money by themselves.
Wu Xiazi's concept of teaching disciples is very advanced and brilliant. Many Jianghu children have only learned to fight and kill since they were young. When they reach middle age, they find that besides being able to kill people with a knife, they can do anything else.
Neither will.
In this situation, if I can always be hired as a bodyguard to look after homes and homes, that would be okay, at least I would have something to eat.
If you can't even hold the bowl of rice safely, then you will have no choice but to take desperate risks and steal money by relying on the handle of a knife.
And eating stolen money is ultimately a road of no return.
Wu Xiazi's educational requirement for his apprentices is that in addition to martial arts, you must at least learn a way to make money by yourself.
The eldest disciple Gu Yuexuan is learning medical skills from the miracle doctor of Wangyou Valley. The second disciple Jingjia likes swords, so he learns blacksmithing from the servant Lao Hu in the valley.
Weiming had been living independently for a long time before he went up the mountain. The past ten years of self-reliance have made him extremely versatile. Today he is going to visit the Jiuxian in Wangyou Valley, and by the way, he will pack some prey and send it to Wangyou Valley so that they can improve their food.
Wei Ming was searching all the way in the dense forest, but before he found any prey, he heard a girl's scream.
This scream was made by Qi Li.
Although Qi Li was born into a martial arts family, she is expected to become the head of the Wild Ball Boxing Sect in the near future. Not to mention how important this "head" still is, at least she has been practicing martial arts since she was a child.
It's a pity that Qili is just an ordinary girl who was born in a martial arts family but has no talent for martial arts. Although her family background is relatively difficult, she also loves beauty.
Qi Li took some time off today and ran to the forest outside Luoyang City. The ground was full of beautiful flowers. She was going to pick some and take them home to decorate her small room.
Just as Qi Li was happily picking flowers, she noticed that someone seemed to be talking in the forest in front of her, so driven by curiosity, she couldn't help but move closer.
…
A moment ago, in the dense forest.
"Not bad, [Hua]." [Poison] stopped in his tracks. He turned around and looked at the newly assigned killer, codenamed [Hua].
Just now [Poison] used Qing Kung and ran all the way. Although [Poison] is not a person who is good at Qing Kung or even boxing and kicking, he is still an expert in martial arts and his actions are incomparable to others.
[Poison] ran wildly in the dense forest, and the newcomer [Flower] followed him closely without falling behind. Finally, he was satisfied and stopped.
That [Poison] is feared by others in the outside world and always kills people without leaving a trace. It turns out that there is a reason why he does not leave a trace.
【Poison】Due to practicing poison skills and being in contact with various toxic substances for a long time, the skin all over his body turned a very scary purple-gray color, making him look like a monster at first glance.
In other words, if [Poison] appeared in a town like this, it would definitely cause a commotion.
Today’s newcomer [Flower] will be evaluated by [Poison]. That’s because among the major killers in Tianyi City, [Poison] looks the most abnormal on the outside, but he is actually the one with the most normal mind.
[Lang] and [Crazy] are two demons in human skin, heartbroken lunatics.
The newcomer [Hua] wore a long-sleeved black coat and black trousers, and covered her head and face with a black silk scarf, covering herself tightly except for a pair of eyes.
The only thing that can be seen from [Hua]'s petite figure is that she is a woman, but what is not commensurate with her petite figure is that she carries an extremely long and narrow tachi.
This tachi is a relic left to [Hua] by her master [Attendant], and it is also the weapon that [Hua] has practiced using since she was a child. Although it is older than Hua, under careful maintenance, this tachi is still extremely sharp.
[Poison] turned around and said to [Hua] who was panting softly: "Your master taught you martial arts, but he never taught you how to kill people.
The first thing that the killer profession pays attention to is to put the mission first, it must be cold-blooded and ruthless, and anyone who hinders the mission must be eliminated without mercy."
"Yes." [Hua] lowered her head and replied carefully.
"The bounty for this mission is very high. It is our biggest order since we opened, so we can't make any mistakes." [Poison] said to [Flower], "As a newcomer, can you participate in this mission?
It is very important for your future promotion, do you understand?"
"Yes." [Hua] replied still lowering her head.
"Just understand." [Poison] said coldly, "There is a girl over there leaning over. She 'might' see us. The confidentiality of the mission comes first."
Qi Li still doesn't know that her curiosity is driving her towards death.
"Today's evaluation ends here." [Poison] waved his hand at [Hua], pointed in the direction of Qi Li, and said: "This person is your friend, kill him immediately."
[Poison] Before he finished speaking, he heard a woman's scream.
"Ah! Monster!"
Qi Li accidentally saw a purple-gray monster in the forest, and she screamed in fright.
"What a troublesome person, let me use Fubuki to send her on her way." [Flower] pulled out the tachi from her waist.
"Go ahead."
[Poison] nodded and turned around to leave, while [Hua] pulled out her sword and rushed towards Qi Li.
This is an ordinary-looking, silly and clumsy little girl, holding a lot of flowers in her hands.
Although she is about the same age as me, she can live in the real sunshine.
"What a nasty person, but she must have heard nothing. Just knock her out with the back of a knife."
[Flower] dragged her sword and charged towards Qi Li. Suddenly she stopped suddenly and swung the sword at the same time. There was only a "ding" sound, and [Flower] used her sword to block a short arrow that was aimed at her.
.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Arrows kept shooting out in the dense forest. It turned out that Weiming saw a man in black from a distance charging towards Qi Li with a long knife. In desperation, he took up his bow and shot an arrow. A set of arrows shot out all the arrows in the quiver.
.
This unknown set of hunting bows and arrows are limited by the draw force of the bow and the length of the arrows. They can only cause certain damage to small animals within a short distance. They may be able to deal with some ordinary people, but they are definitely useless against experts.
.
Fortunately, Weiming originally just wanted to delay, so he dropped the hunting bow without any arrows and rushed in front of Qi Li with a few quick steps.
It has only been half a year since I entered Xiaoyao Valley, but Weiming has already practiced Xiaoyao Valley's introductory mental method [Xiaoyao Mental Method] to perfection.
So last month, Master Wuxiazi specially taught him a set of [Small Wuxiang Kung Fu], and now Weiming has passed the thirty-level mark.
Some time ago, Weiming followed his two senior brothers to defeat Heifeng Village. Weiming thought Drunken Boxing was good, but it seemed that the attack was not strong enough.
Look at my second senior brother Jingjie, he just killed a dwarf, and he has already killed a row of houses with a sword.
Trampling Heifeng Village was the most satisfying thing that Weiming had done since he had grown so big.
Weiming hates the bandits in the world to the extreme.
It turned out that Weiming was picked up from a drifting basin in the river by his adoptive parents when he was less than one year old. He was covered with a yellow silk scarf with four words "Dongfang Weiming" written in blood on it.
Weiming has tied a yellow silk scarf on his arms since he was a child, hoping to be seen by his biological parents one day. Until the yellow scarf became old and faded, and he changed it one after another, Weiming still could not meet his parents.
The adoptive parents treated Wei Ming as if they were their own, and the family was warm and harmonious. However, when Wei Ming was seven years old, his adoptive parents and other brothers and sisters in the family were killed by a group of bandits. Because of his playfulness, Wei Ming returned home in the dark in the middle of the night and saw only the floor.
's corpse.
From then on, Weiming made two wishes, one was to find his biological parents, and the other was to become a great hero, wipe out the gangsters in the world, and eradicate injustice in the world.
It was also at that time that he heard the legend of Xiao Xiami and regarded Xiao Xiami as his most admired hero.
Today Wei Ming went to Wangyou Valley to find the Jiu Xian. Firstly, he wanted to bring him a gourd of aged wine that he had finally obtained with great difficulty. Secondly, he wanted to ask the Jiu Xian for advice on the advanced martial arts of Drunken Master, Drunken Stick.
As the saying goes, every inch is stronger.
Relatively speaking, Drunken Boxing is more about self-defense. If you want to have a good fight, you still need to look at Drunken Boxing.
The most peculiar thing about the drunken stick technique is that it can be performed with drunken fist. It is said to be a stick technique, but in fact it is mixed with fists and kicks in the stick technique. The attack method is extremely random and full of tricks.
Many people used to look down on drunken sticks until a drunken old man randomly pulled a wooden stick and beat the shit out of him.
But the drunk stick is so powerful, but it is very difficult to practice.
To learn Zui Gun, you must first learn Zui Quan.
The most difficult part of practicing Drunken Boxing is not the boxing, but the body technique.
Simply put, Drunken Master requires a very high level of spirituality.
It won't work if you are too sober, if you are too chaotic, if you are too smart, if you are too stupid, it won't work, if you don't know how to drink, if you can't control yourself when you drink, it still won't work.
Zui Xian also waited for many years before finally meeting Wei Ming, a disciple of his art.
Wei Ming was halfway there when he heard someone screaming. After he used his bow and arrow to drive back the man in black holding a long knife, he realized that the screaming woman turned out to be Qi Li.
