As the night fell, Zhang Xing went to the Water Street Wine Shop and channeled the energy he had just gained today.
Different from the obvious ice and fire attributes in the body before, when this zhenqi was used, it was obviously a bit invigorating, and the breathing could not help but become longer, and after pressing the hand filled with zhenqi to the wall, it really produced something.
A strong sense of attachment.
Regarding this, Zhang Xing had no doubt that he could easily climb up the wall by relying on the characteristics of this true energy like the man who died during the day.
However, after exerting his true energy for a moment, he never made any move to climb the wall of the shop and enter the wine shop. On the contrary, after hesitating for a while, this Jingjiehu who had only been employed for half a month chose to put away his true energy and turned around to leave without saying a word.
, when I returned to Xiuye Square, I climbed up the ladder and turned into my side courtyard, and fell asleep directly, as if nothing happened.
Early the next morning, I went to Xiao Zhao's home in the practice to express my condolences as usual, and then went to the Water Street wine shop as usual to listen to orders.
Nothing happened one day, I came back in the afternoon, went to a wine shop the next day, and then to Xiao Zhao's house, still nothing happened.
It was not only nothing but useless, because there were too many people, and people were guarding it day and night. He really couldn't open the coffin and conduct an autopsy. However, he was not completely without gain, because this time after returning to Xiuye Workshop in the afternoon, he waited
Someone has arrived.
"Xiao Zhang, your friend who is patrolling in fine clothes came to see you with a box of books." As soon as he came back, Brother Zhang greeted him with a smile. "I asked him to sit in the side room and wait for you."
Zhang Xing nodded, accelerated his steps, passed by the side room and raised his hand to Qin Bao who stood up after hearing the sound, then directly opened the door of his side courtyard and went in first.
The two entered the hospital and sat down. Qin Bao first handed over a beautiful wooden book box: "The famous book that Brother Zhang wants... According to Inspector Bai, this book is known as both literature and history... I probably know which set of books it is.
, but there’s no need to talk too much, just take your time and see for yourself.”
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xing, who had always been interested in books, just nodded, and before he had time to put the wooden box aside, he spoke first: "I have a few things I want to ask you about."
"Brother Zhang, please speak." Qin Bao naturally had nothing to do.
"A few days ago, General Fengqi led us street-cleaning tigers to defeat the Qingyu Gang... Do you and Inspector Bai know?" Zhang Xing came to ask seriously. "It's a very important matter. It involves my life. Don't lie."
"I know." Qin Bao obviously hesitated for a moment, but after hearing the next sentence, he decided to do it.
"Qin Erlang, I only recognize you and Inspector Bai in Dongdu, so I'll just tell you straight away." Zhang Xing continued to stare at the other person and asked. "If I encounter something like Yuan Da again, assuming you are around, see
I'm in danger, are you willing to help me?"
"Of course I do." Qin Bao said without hesitation.
"Then do you think that if Inspector Bai knows about it, he will still be reasonable and protect me like last time?" Zhang Xing frowned and asked.
"It must be so." Qin Bao still didn't think twice, but he hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
"Don't worry yet." Zhang Xing breathed a sigh of relief, but kept asking questions. "A few more questions about practice... When I went to encircle and suppress the Qingyu Gang the day before yesterday, I saw a thug whose hands and feet turned green after using Qi.
, can stick to the wall and crawl... what is that?"
"That is the true path of the three radiances and four emperors, the longevity energy that is the symbol of the Eastern Qing Emperor." Qin Bao blurted out. "It is also the most common energy in the world, no one."
"Because of immortality?" Zhang Xing was startled for a moment and then realized immediately.
"That's right." Qin Bao rarely laughed. "But to be honest, the Qing Emperor's immortality energy really nourishes the body. It can be detected when the twelve main meridians are charged... It is said that when growing flowers and plants in the palace, some immortality energy must be added.
Qi is used to accelerate ripening... For this reason, the father-in-laws of Bei Ya who are successful in spiritual practice will take this path."
At this point, Qin Bao paused for a moment, but still lowered his voice and laughed: "Some of the jokes I heard at Jinyi Xunqi's place said that Governor Niu of Beiya, one of the great masters in the world, even relied on
The eternal energy has returned to positive state."
"Fuyang..." Zhang Xing was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses, and then continued to ask. "When the zhenqi is used, and the arm turns khaki, which of the three radiances and four emperors is the zhenqi?"
"None of them." Qin Bao raised his head and thought for a moment, then shook his head immediately. "The earthy color instead of gold or bright yellow is either the earth-splitting Qi inherited from Fenshanjun, or the flying sand Qi passed down from Western Xinjiang, or maybe
It’s the Muddy Water Qi that’s popular in Jingxiang.”
"Fengshanjun also has a true energy inheritance?" Zhang Xing was keenly aware of a new knowledge point... Obviously, he had read too few books in Dongdu for half a month.
"Many true dragons have their true qi types passed down to the human world, or it is said that they are passed down from true dragons, or even the qi from true dragons occupies seven or eight true qi schools in the world." At this point, Qin Bao obviously hesitated. "For example,
The Ice True Qi you practice is said to be the inheritance of Lord Tunfeng in the Northern Wilderness, and the Wind-Tombing Sect under Lord Tunfeng in the Northern Wilderness is itself a major force in the local area..."
Of course Zhang Xing knew what the other party was hesitating about, but as the saying goes, it's okay if I don't feel embarrassed, so he didn't hesitate at all and immediately asked: "Then what kind of Qi are you practicing? What inheritance?"
"What I practice is Ding Lei Zhenqi." Qin Bao replied appropriately. "It is said that it was also inherited from a true dragon god, but it came from the Qing Emperor of the East. After the Qing Emperor became the supreme king, this true dragon became
Known as the True Monarch of Dongting, he is said to be able to transform into a human form. He stands behind the Qing Emperor in the Qing Emperor Temple all the year round... However, no one can say for sure about the immortals. It is not known whether it was made up by later generations or which emperor made it up.
Yes, I guess the real king doesn’t care anyway.”
"Let's not talk about true kings and true dragons, can you trigger thunder and discharge?" Zhang Xing read a few history books and naturally knew that Qin Bao was right, but this did not stop him from curiously asking. "Can you release it for me?"
One?"
"No." Qin Bao shook his head and said. "This true energy is a bit weird, with advantages and disadvantages. In the Chongmai stage, the advantage is that the process of Chongmai can often be completed overnight, but the disadvantage is that it is difficult to draw the true energy out of the body and use it; even in the Dan Condensation stage,
, there are pros and cons. The advantage is that the moves are extremely powerful, but the disadvantage is that it is difficult to control Zhenqi like other Zhenqi..."
Zhang Xing nodded, speechless... It would be strange if the thunder and lightning thing was easy to control... But this did not delay him and continued to ask: "What about Bai Xinqin? What kind of Qi method does she have?"
"She is the orthodox path of the Trinity Orthodox Church, and is naturally the radiant Qi of the Three Brilliance and Four Emperors." Qin Bao reluctantly continued to popularize science. "This is the most orthodox, and it is also the most common one after the longevity Qi in the past two thousand years.
True Qi is said to be able to integrate all kinds of true Qi in the world into the root."
Zhang Xing was stunned for a moment, nodded, and suddenly asked again: "Just talking about the earthy yellow zhenqi before...does it have any magical effect?"
"Not to mention the higher the level of cultivation, the level of Tongmai is mainly for defense." Qin Bao continued to serve as the humanoid database. "It is said that after cultivating to the eight meridians, as long as the two meridians of Ren and Du are opened, the whole body can be filled with true energy.
, just like the whole body is covered with armor, if the true energy is not exhausted for a while, it will be invulnerable for a while."
"Iron cloth shirt with golden bell cover?" Zhang Xing thought thoughtfully. "Then suppose that a person with a higher level of cultivation is good at defense, but later becomes lazy and lazy, will he be killed by an ordinary person with a single blow?"
Qin Bao looked at Zhang Xing, hesitated again, but nodded affirmatively: "I don't know about higher cultivation levels, but the situation you mentioned is actually very common at the level of Tongmai...
You and I both know the two main meridians, so of course there is no need to talk about the eight extraordinary meridians. In fact, the situation is actually worse, and it is not worse than what you said."
"how to say?"
"Because as far as I know, 80% of the masters of the eight extraordinary meridians died unexpectedly... many of them were killed by ordinary people in sneak attacks."
"I don't quite understand." Zhang Xing shook his head. "Why is this so?"
"Because it is too hard to open the twelve main meridians, and once one or two of the eight extraordinary meridians are opened, there will be exquisite applications of various Zhenqi methods. Although they are still mortal bodies, it is difficult for ordinary people to do so.
We have an opponent, armor, and powerful crossbows." Qin Bao stared at the person in front of him and explained earnestly. "So, the court, sects, gangs, and local tycoons are all competing for invitations. Fame, wealth, beauty, power, and power are all at your fingertips.
, even if you are a thief, you can become a hero... It is said that after many years of hard work, once you gain power, you often cannot control your heart and cause all kinds of troubles!"
Zhang Xing knew clearly in his heart that there were so many people who fell into depravity after going to university, and there were so many cases of men and women having problems with their styles as soon as they were promoted to official positions. There were so many things about Qi cultivation, literature and martial arts, and powerful official positions in ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, in two generations.
As long as the Three Realms are born out of the mortal world, how can they escape the human heart and human nature?
"Jing'an Taichung Town Fusi mainly deals with these people." Qin Bao continued to add sincerely. "Listening to those old patrolmen talking about the case, many heroes and young talents died easily because of wealth, sex and fame...
I wanted to ridicule them. The Eight Qi Meridians themselves were cultivators of spiritual stability, but they easily lost their lives. But when I thought that I was also preparing to join the army in order to get ahead, and now that I was in Jing'an Terrace, it was not easy to ridicule... What else does Brother Zhang have?
Do you want to ask?"
"No." Zhang Xing stood up and showed off his guests. "In the next three to five days, at the third watch every night, if you are interested, you can go to the west side of the old Zhongqiao outside Chengfu Gate and hang out for a while.
.”
The location mentioned by Zhang Xing is in Luoyang County, north of Luoshui River, across the river from Jingshanfang.
"Brother Zhang, what are you going to do?" Qin Bao stood up nervously. "I've been talking for a long time. Didn't I just want to remind you that the road to cultivation is so difficult, there is no need to fight bravely unless you have to? The gangster from the secret prostitution hall before was killed.
Just cut it off, don’t you want to provoke someone more powerful?”
"It's not that I'm brave and ruthless, nor that I provoke it, but someone wants to kill me first." Zhang Xing stood up and spoke with certainty. "Although I didn't succeed in killing him, I even almost concealed it, but now that I know,
If I can't kill him, what's going on?"
Qin Bao was stunned for a moment, but after all, he had a good foundation. He suddenly realized: "Is there another explanation for what happened to the Qingyu Gang before?"
Zhang Xing nodded.
"Is there any evidence?" Qin Bao lowered his voice in response.
"If there was any evidence, I would have been waiting in front of the Marquis of Ji'an's Mansion to wait for the old lady Qingtian to complain. Why are they looking for you?" Zhang Xing shook his head and kept saying, "If you insist on interfering, you can ask Inspector Bai to find Deputy Gang Leader Shen or one of my colleagues. The captain surnamed Wang came to ask... But I don't recommend this, because it would be to alert others for me and put me in danger... When the matter really comes out and cannot be covered up, you can tell me for me."
"Do you have to go?" Qin Bao sighed, his voice even lower.
"Qin Erlang, you and I can only be regarded as colleagues, not life and death friends." Zhang Xing looked at him seriously. "It's normal that you don't want to come. I won't blame you... But having said that, I can All the brothers who depended on me for life and death are dead, so who can I rely on if I don’t rely on you? In fact, I don’t need your help. I just want you to be a backup across the river. If it doesn’t work, how about you save me?”
Qin Bao sighed: "If you say this, can I still respond? I just hope that Brother Zhang will take care of himself and act with caution."
"I know." Zhang Xing nodded and said no more.
Qin Bao also raised his hands, but when he walked to the door, he turned around and raised his hands again: "Brother Zhang, don't worry, since you entrusted me, I, Qin Er, will never fail you."
Zhang Xing could only thank him.
There was nothing to say that night. Zhang Xing did not open the box of books. He just practiced martial arts on a daily basis and then meditated on the Chongmai. Although there were some pitfalls in tempering before battle, after he killed the person that day, his true energy was full, and he vaguely had the impact of completing the fourth main meridian. fact.
Early the next morning, Zhang Xing went to Water Street again to listen to orders. In the afternoon, he returned to his residence to put the saber back, and then went to Xiao Zhao's home. However, he acted like a gentleman and took advantage of the crowds and chaos to return Deputy Gang Leader Shen. Xiao Zhao secretly found the sword, put it in his belt and brought it out openly.
Another day, I still went to the Water Street wine shop to take orders.
But this time, he met Xiaoyu.
Unexpectedly, although Xiaoyu's smile faded slightly, she showed no signs of sadness. She walked around among the captains and warriors as usual, pouring wine and tea. Not only that, as the weather got hotter, her breasts were also more obviously exposed. One more point, and each person had to walk in front of him and accompany him carefully, as if he was ready to find a new shelter after Xiao Zhao died.
Seeing this scene, some people sneered, some lamented, some looked lewdly, and some simply took action.
"Xiaoyu, right?"
Zhang Xing watched this woman wander around almost every table, but never came to his table. While his heart was slightly moved, when the other person passed by him, he directly stretched out his hand to grab the other person's wrist, and then teased her in return. "Xiao Zhao is gone now. Aren't you afraid that your sister-in-law will point you out to some pig-killer or brick-burner one day, and you will spend the rest of your life just hanging around in the southeastern cities?"
In the structure of Shendu City, Ziwei Palace is located in the northwest, and there are certain towns in the southeast, which are destined to be so-called "slums".
Xiaoyu forced a smile, but at the same time tried hard to break free: "Colonel Zhang hurt me."
Zhang Xing still held on to the other party, and then teased him with a tone that seemed greasy to him: "I hurt you accidentally, but it's also because of my strength... Did you know? That time with the Qingyu Gang, I was the best in martial arts. Okay, a crossbow shot through a master who has almost reached the level of eight extraordinary meridians... From this point of view, I can be regarded as avenging Xiao Zhao on your behalf."
When talking about it, Xiaoyu was still smiling, but later on, she was startled for a moment and almost shed tears, but she quickly held back, and then she just remained silent and tried her best to pull away her hands. And as other captains came
Look, especially when Lao Wang stood up directly, Zhang Xing burst into laughter and then let go.
But the matter was not over yet. Zhang Xing started laughing and then followed the escaped Xiaoyu to the counter, shouting loudly: "Sister-in-law! Everyone over there at Qingyu Gang made a big profit, so we agreed as promised
I don’t need the remaining payment of 20 coins, I still have some money now... Can you exchange it for Xiaoyu’s deed of sale for me at Xiao Zhao’s price?”
Mrs. Feng, who had noticed the situation when Zhang Xing and Xiaoyu were fighting each other, stood up from behind the counter and her eyes flashed on the spot: "That can't be done, Xiao Zhao is Xiao Zhao, you are you... After all, Xiao Zhang, where are you?"
Is there anyone who says this before Zhao Touqi has passed?"
"I only dared to say this after seeing that Xiaoyu didn't even pass Xiao Zhao's first seven years and came to serve in a wine shop." Zhang Xing retorted unceremoniously. "I thought my sister-in-law didn't have such specialties here!"
The warriors and lieutenants sitting outside had different expressions. Only then did they realize that the boy named Zhang was not frivolous, but was actually mocking the flag owner's wife. Among them, quite a few people stood up and were ready to scold this person, but it seemed that
They were afraid of the bravery Zhang Xing had shown these days, so as Zhang Xing raised his knife and turned around to sweep away, they all felt a little hesitant.
On this side, when Mrs. Feng saw this scene, she was also embarrassed for a moment. Her pair of strange-colored eyes couldn't help but turn to the counter in front of her, avoiding Zhang Xing's gaze: "I don't want Xiaoyu to come so early, but she and Xiao Zhao have nothing to say.
Leaving her behind was afraid that she would be alone with her thoughts, so today she begged me to come in front to get some air, so I agreed..."
"I also guessed that." Zhang Xing nodded, lying on the counter and getting serious. "So, even though I was teasing just now, I actually meant it a bit sincerely... Sister-in-law, give me Xiaoyu for real!"
"
"How do you say that?" Mrs. Feng was slightly startled.
"Xiao Zhao's death will ultimately be blamed on Sun Wagua. Logically speaking, it has nothing to do with me. But after all, there was a reason for the death that day. The person who went to Shangshanfang was in front of me. I feel somewhat guilty."
Zhang Xing lay on the counter with his head tilted, his eyes only looking at Xiaoyu who was hiding behind Mrs. Feng, who looked a little surprised, and his tone was calm.
"Now that he is dead, his revenge has been avenged, and what happened after his death is very glorious, all I can do is to care about his family a little bit... But his brother and sister-in-law are fake and have always been at odds with him.
I went to his house for a few days, but I just felt it was boring. After much deliberation, Xiaoyu was the only one he really cared about... But now, despite Xiaoyu's appearance, youthful and agile, it has been a few years.
, whether it’s because the flag master has risen, there are more people around you, sister-in-law, or she is getting old and losing her beauty, isn’t it just the result of marrying to Nanbianfang City as a concubine? Why not marry me, I can still miss Xiao Zhao.
For once, treat her sincerely."
What Zhang Xing said seemed very reasonable. Not only did everyone behind him sit back early, but even Mrs. Feng didn't know how to refute it.
After waiting for a long time, the general's wife smiled and said: "What Xiao Zhang said makes sense, but I can't decide this matter. Your eldest brother and Lao Wang went to the opposite side of Luoshui to deal with the leader and tail of the Qingyu Gang...
Why don't you come and talk to your elder brother in person tomorrow?"
Zhang Xing kept nodding his head.
In this way, in the afternoon, he did not go to Xiao Zhao's place again, but returned to his old habits and returned to the rented courtyard early. He still practiced martial arts to strengthen his body, and then meditated on the Chongmai.
This day seems to be about to pass.
However, in the evening, when Liu Fangzhu came back from cleaning the street, he started to call out reminders outside the square gate. When he was about to close the square gate, Zhang Xing, who changed into a homely dress and wrapped his sword in cloth, went straight out of the side courtyard, but he didn't
Instead of walking through the square gate, I picked up the longevity energy that I had just become familiar with from the place where I usually climbed over the wall, climbed up the wall calmly, and prepared to turn over and walk away without disturbing anyone.
But the accident still happened.
Zhang Xing jumped up to the wall, and when he turned around, he found that Brother Liu's little daughter was holding a pickle jar and standing on the threshold of his inner courtyard, looking at him in shock. Seeing this, Zhang Xing was completely helpless and could only laugh dryly on the wall.
, and then made a gesture of silence. When the other party nodded blankly, he jumped down directly and left the Xiuye Workshop while the door was closed and noisy.
Let’s say that all the square and square squares are like small towns, and most of them are similar in size. At least the four square squares for cultivating business, cultivating literature, and advocating good deeds, and Jingshan Four Squares are exactly the same size.
In other words, the north gate of Xiuye Square, where Zhang Xing lives, is actually facing the south gate of Jingshan Square.
Therefore, Zhang Xing took advantage of the hustle and bustle in front of the square gate and the crowds were rushing to enter the square. He jumped down from the wall on one side. Although he alarmed several men and women who were close by, he didn't care at all and just ran towards the opposite side.
, a moment later, he squeezed into the crowd in front of Jingshanfang opposite and disappeared.
As the sun set, Zhang Xing, holding his sword in his arms, had already entered Jingshanfang, and then followed the flow of people into Fangshi in the dusk.
Speaking of which, it was his first time to go to the Water Street Restaurant from this direction to perform tricks.
