The goshawk flew across the sky and swooped down to rest on the railing of the sky tower of the building.
Beside the railing of the sky building, a young man wearing a black shirt and sunglasses was talking to the goshawk.
It was clear that one person was speaking human language and the other was speaking bird language, but they communicated as if they were ignoring obstacles.
The young man then entered the building and took the elevator to the first basement floor. It was completely hollowed out and turned into a spacious hall.
The hall was quite busy with people coming and going.
In the center of the hall, there is a statue of a golden toad that is three meters high.
This statue is lifelike, as if it is still alive. Under the light of the underground hall, the scales on the surface of the statue glow with a faint luster.
A circle of stone piers was also built around the statue, enclosing it in the middle.
The young man wearing sunglasses entered the innermost room.
"The Qingzhou mission failed."
"The inspector entered Tuoba's house and was killed."
"Zhou Simiao is strong enough and has three Qingzhou talkers. Why did he fail?"
"All three speakers have betrayed."
"...Are you sure?"
"The goshawk saw it with his own eyes."
"Interesting, the Tuoba family actually instigated all three speakers in Qingzhou to rebel. It was normal for Zhou Simiao to be killed, but now is an important moment, and everything must be kept simple." The speaker turned his chair around.
It turned out to be a woman, wearing a celadon-colored slim-fitting cheongsam, with her long hair pulled up high. "Now their attention is drawn to Qingzhou. Qingzhou is very close... There is no room for error. In order to prevent accidents, I will personally lead the team this time."
Go out and wipe out the Tuoba family as a warning to others."

In the room, Chen Xing was sitting on a bench with an open martial arts secret book in front of him.
There is a fruit basket on the right side of the table, with a lot of dark gray, rock candy-like crystals in it.
Chen Xing picked one up and put it in his mouth like eating an apple.
Crunchy.
On the left side of the table is a small pile of secret books. These secret books would be regarded as treasures by many people outside, but here they are placed on the table for Chen Xing to read at will.
These are the exercises collected by the Tuoba family.
Regardless of whether he could practice or not, Chen Xing prepared to read them all. Tuoba actually had a lot of body-training techniques that were rare outside.
But most of them are incomplete. The incompleteness here refers to the fact that these external exercises do not temper the entire physical body. Chen Xing found that many external exercises are targeted at tempering a certain part.
For example, the Iron Palm Kung Fu book he is reading now has a very popular name. It is estimated that there are not four but three Kung Fu books with the same name.
As its name suggests, this exercise mainly exercises the palms, aiming to develop a pair of palms that are comparable to fine iron. It is said that when practiced to a high level, one can be able to hold a weapon head-on.
Although this technique is of no use to you now, and even if you practice it to Dzogchen, it will not improve your physical body at all, some of its ideas still have some merit.
Moreover, external skills are also very simple to practice, much simpler than internal skills.
The most indispensable thing for him now is the red attribute points. Chen Xing is going to take some time to practice all these external skills to perfection, and then blend them all into the Canglang Nine Kings' molten body. Even if the improvement brought by one book is insignificant, the sand will form a tower and accumulate.
Water forms an abyss, and there are always benefits in having more of it.
Although the Tuoba family’s purchase of Qi and blood supplements in large quantities has been criticized above, in fact, the Qi and blood supplements that Chen Xing drinks every day have not been affected, and the weight has not been reduced. The financial resources consumed every day are huge.
The figure is billions of dollars a month. If the Tuoba family hadn't had astonishing financial resources, ordinary small families wouldn't be able to support this money-grubber.
Chen Xing also inquired and found out that the Tuoba family had only reduced their purchases in Qingzhou. Stargazing Country had 23 states and had spread its channels to each state for small-scale purchases. Although it was a little troublesome, the Qi and blood supplements purchased were not difficult.
.
There were footsteps outside the door, and Chen Xing heard the sound and stepped away.
Grandpa walked in from outside the house, and a head popped out from behind him. It was Tuoba Fengming.
"What have you been reading all day? You lock yourself in your room every day after school." Tuoba Fengming walked in and looked left and right.
There seems to be no difference between this room and my grandpa's room.
There are only a few basic pieces of furniture, a lamp by the bedside table, a pillow on the bed, a cup, the floor is clean, the curtains are open, and the windows are open.
"Do you want to see it?" Chen Xing handed over the secret skill of Iron Palm Kung Fu.
Tuoba Fengming took it, looked at it twice and quickly returned it to Chen Xing.
"Do you watch this every day? Why are you, like my dad, a bit of a martial artist." Tuoba Fengming looked strange.
Tuoba Xiong spent most of his time in seclusion after returning home, and so did his cousin.
"It's okay to be idle anyway, I have to find something to do." Chen Xing smiled.
He didn't feel bored.
On the contrary, I enjoy my current life.
In my previous life, how could I have had the opportunity to come into contact with martial arts? There was no such opportunity in my previous life. Now that I finally have this opportunity, how can I miss it?
What's more, he has new feelings after reading every martial arts secret book, just like a bookworm discovering a brand new novel website, which is full of novels of various genres that he has never read before. How can he not forget to eat and sleep?
Tuoba Fengming saw a lot of rock candy-like things in the fruit basket next to him. Seeing Chen Xing eating them with gusto, he thought they were snacks.
While Chen Xing was not paying attention, Tuoba Fengming secretly picked up one and put it into his mouth without observing it carefully.
Ouch~
Tuoba Fengming gritted his teeth so hard that they almost shattered, and his facial features were wrinkled.
"What's this."
Tuoba Fengming distinguished it carefully and recognized that it was ore.
She was confused. There was no ore in the fruit basket. She thought it was some kind of candy.
Is this thing edible?
You're not afraid of eating it and it will upset your stomach. No, let alone you are not afraid of eating it and it will upset your stomach. You can't bite this thing.
"What's this?"
"Tungsten Ore."
"..."
Tuoba Fengming looked at Chen Xing like a monster.
Eat ore!?
Compared to Tuoba Fengming's shock, Tuoba Shan was much calmer.
After all, he had people wash and bring these ores.
"Can you consume it if you eat it?" Tuoba Fengming asked.
"Yes." Chen Xing took another bite.
Anyway, everything he ate was digested, so he looked inside and practiced luck according to the method in the Qi Refining Sword Book.
However, there has been no response at all so far, and I don’t know whether it is because I have no spiritual roots or for other reasons.
But Chen Xing is not in a hurry, take his time, maybe he didn't eat enough.
Anyway, if you eat too much of this tungsten ore, it will have a different flavor.
I don’t know why others haven’t discovered this delicious taste. In addition to being a bit hard and tasting slightly salty, it is also mixed with an indescribable umami flavor unique to ores.
At this time, Tuoba Shan took out a booklet from his arms and put it on the table, "Your third uncle heard that you like to collect exercises. He specially asked me to hand it over to you. I took a look and found that it is of Yin attribute.
Internal strength, but the method of cultivation is a bit... not elegant."
Chen Xing took over this book. It looked like the cover was a little old, the corners of the pages were yellowed, and they were folded and curled.
On the front are written five characters in ancient Chinese - Xunling Dingmai Jue.
It sounds a bit like tomb robbing.
After opening it, Chen Xing read the entire introduction and quickly determined that this book was written for tomb robbers.
The entire practice requires attention to one earth vein, especially earth veins with heavy Yin Qi, which are the best places to practice this technique.
There is no more suitable place than a large tomb.
Chen Xing thought about it, he was going to the Wuyun Mountains in a few days to worship his ancestors. He heard that the ancestors of the Tuoba family were buried in the mountains, and there should be a mausoleum there.
