At this time, the sky was getting brighter, and Zhou Wen found the traces of Gao Xiaoshan and the others without much trouble. At this time, Zhou Wen was very happy. He had not seen Brother Shan Zi for a month, and he did not know whether his injury had recovered.
So instead of using the usual bird calls to communicate, he said in a loud voice: "The king of heaven covers the tiger of the earth."
"Pagoda Town River Demon. Scholar, we are here." Gao Xiaoshan's familiar voice sounded in the woods.
Before the voice fell, a person emerged from the forest. He had a tall and straight body, a dark and red face with a happy smile, and a row of small white teeth that made him feel friendly.
"Brother Shanzi, it's been a long time."
"Scholar, are you alright?"
The two brothers joked, strode forward at the same time, laughed and hugged each other.
Feeling excited, Zhou Wen let go of Gao Xiaoshan, took a step back, and began to look Gao Xiaoshan up and down, wanting to see the condition of his injuries.
It didn't matter, Zhou Wen suddenly felt that Brother Shan Zi today seemed a little different from before.
Gao Xiaoshan also cooperated and spread his arms, smiling and letting him take a closer look.
Zhou Wen discovered the problem as soon as he saw it.
Something is wrong. Brother Shanzi just stood there today, yet he felt like he was in the depths of Yuan Ting and Yue Zhi, and there was a harmonious and natural flow of Qi in his body.
Zhou Wen reacted immediately, suppressing the excitement in his heart and asked: "Brother Shan Zi, what are you..."
Gao Xiaoshan nodded firmly and said: "Yes!"
"Hahaha... Okay! Great! Congratulations, Brother Shanzi." Zhou Wen laughed and hugged Gao Xiaoshan again. At this time, he was really filled with endless joy.
It’s not easy! Brother Shan Zi, it’s really not easy.
According to the private assessment of two martial arts masters, Miaohua and Zhao Xiaojin, the people in the mercenary group who have reached the gate of Qi Jin Realm include Gao Xiaoshan, Xu Dacheng, Ti Jing, Zuo Mingqing and Zhou Mingyuan.
.
Among them, Zuo Mingqing and Zhou Mingyuan have only recently reached the late stage of Qi Sheng Jin. Their realm is not yet stable enough, and the opportunity to break through has not yet arrived.
But among the other three, Gao Xiaoshan's breakthrough was the most difficult, and he might even be overtaken by Zuo Mingqing and Zhou Mingyuan later on.
The main reason is that Gao Xiaoshan's management work is too cumbersome, and his personality is very meticulous and hands-on, so he spends very little time on understanding martial arts.
In addition, when Gao Xiaoshan was young, he followed his father and Wang Huzi to become the king of the mountain. Wherever there was anyone to teach him about martial arts, those who practiced martial arts were all in the wild folk ways, and the basics were not solid enough.
Xu Dacheng and Ti Jing are different. Although they have very different personalities, one is rough and carefree, the other is dull and honest, but they are both simple-minded people, which are more in line with the need to deal with the situation by doing nothing.
Moreover, both of them have a solid foundation in martial arts. Not to mention physical purity, his background as a Shaolin disciple makes his starting point far beyond that of ordinary people.
Xu Dacheng, on the other hand, comes from a wealthy family, and the martial arts master hired by him can be regarded as a well-known master. Although he is not a master of martial arts, he teaches the basics very carefully and solidly.
Moreover, Xu Dacheng also has some talent for learning martial arts. When he was a teenager, he had been steadily dominating Zhou Wen, who was also a famous Liuhe Quan master.
Therefore, Miaohua and the others believe that Ti Jing and Xu Dacheng have a higher probability and speed of entering the Qi Jin realm than Gao Xiaoshan.
But even martial arts masters like Miaohua and Zhao Xiaojin sometimes made mistakes. No one thought that Gao Xiaoshan took the first step.
However, as the second-in-command of the mercenary group, Gao Xiaoshan was under pressure that others could not imagine because of his martial arts level.
That's why Zhou Wen felt that Gao Xiaoshan was really difficult.
Of course, he also guessed that the key factor in Gao Xiaoshan's breakthrough was that his desperate struggle during the siege of the Japanese army inspired his potential in life.
Brother Miaohua once said that there is great terror between life and death, but at the same time it is also great opportunity.
The last time Zhang Xiaoping broke through the realm, he was almost killed by Japanese heavy artillery. After recovering from his injuries, he naturally became a master of Qi Jin realm.
But from Zhou Wen's heart, if every brother has to go through this kind of life and death test before he can enter the realm of Qi Jin, then he would rather they never break through.
"Scholar, I have finally caught up with you." Gao Xiaoshan said with the same excitement.
Zhou Wen solemnly said: "Brother Shan Zi, the road ahead is long, and we should walk side by side."
"Yes, we will walk side by side. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there may be in the future, I will face them together with you." Gao Xiaoshan also said firmly.
The exchange between the two made Lei Dahai and Xiao Qi look confused.
The two of them only know some rudimentary martial arts skills in the military, and don't know anything about this realm or that realm.
Xiao Shui and Huang Dayou, who had already been taught by their master, looked envious, wondering if they could reach this level one day.
At this moment, Miaohua also arrived with Tijing and the others.
It took Zhou Wen a long time to observe before he could see that Gao Xiaoshan had broken through. But Miaohua, a real martial arts master with such keen eyesight, discovered it at just one glance. Of course, he was surprised and happy.
Xu Dacheng and Ti Jing didn't feel any sense of loss. Originally, they had no intention of comparing and were both happy for Gao Xiaoshan.
But the shock and envy in the hearts of Zuo Mingqing and Zhou Mingyuan were beyond words. Originally, after they, Wudang disciples, came to the mercenary group, they still had some sense of superiority and arrogance in terms of martial arts.
It went out instantly.
Gao Xiaoshan has not been influenced by any major sects, nor does he have any profound knowledge of martial arts, but he has come through step by step, and now he has reached a higher level and has become a true master of martial arts in the world.
The so-called "God rewards those who work hard and be virtuous" refers to people like Gao Xiaoshan who are diligent and have noble conduct.
Now God has opened his eyes, so that those who give will finally be rewarded.
Just when everyone was congratulating Gao Xiaoshan, they saw him separate from everyone, come to Miaohua, bow his head respectfully and say: "Xiaoshan thanks senior brother!"
Miaohua also stood still and accepted his gift calmly, and then said seriously: "I am just your guide. The main thing is Shanzi's diligence and opportunity. From now on, we are all in the same way, and we should support each other and forge ahead.
OK."
Zhou Wen, who was watching from the sidelines, also sighed in his heart.
Of course he knew the reason for Gao Xiaoshan's gift.
If it weren't for Miaohua's careful and unselfish teachings in the past few years, even with the help of her own Prajna Qi, these brothers from Dawangzhuang would have no need to even think about achieving great success in martial arts.
You know, in terms of martial arts, the biggest disadvantage between Ye Luzi and the disciples of the big sect is the serious lack of martial arts knowledge and foundation.
