Beiyin Great Sage

"No?"

Zhou Yi took the handed letter and frowned:

"how come?"

"Indeed not."

Zhao San is a letter visitor walking in the city near Kunshan. He makes a living by delivering letters to people. His face is already covered with wrinkles at a young age.

He was wearing short skirts and hemp shoes. His body had an earthy smell. He shook his head and said:

"I have inquired. Hongjiabao took in a total of seven families of refugees as tenants last year, and there was no Uncle Zheng among them."

"There is a family named Qi, but they are not from Pingzhou."

Zhou Yi tightened the letter in his hand and his heart sank slightly.

He does not think that the other party is lying. Xinke is also called a trustworthy person, which means a trustworthy person must be trustworthy in this business.

Moreover, there was money in the envelope, which Zhao San knew very well, but the other party did not secretly take it for himself, which was enough to prove his credibility.

It can only be said that it was difficult for the ancients to communicate.

Sometimes when we are separated, we may never see each other again for the rest of our lives.

"Thank you."

Nodding, Zhou Yi paid the balance:

"A lot of people left Jimin Alley last year. Is there anyone Zhao Sange can contact?"

"Besides, I haven't moved out of my residence in Jimin Lane yet. If Uncle Zheng asks someone to come back with a message, please let me know."

"Don't dare to take it, don't dare to take it."

In the eyes of others, Zhao San was just an errand boy. He had never been called Third Brother by such a big shot as the Lin Family Nursing Home. He couldn't help but wave his hands hurriedly:

"I understand what the young master means. I think he is thinking about his old friend. However, I would like to advise you. I have seen many such things in recent years."

"It's best not to get your hopes up."

"Oh!" Zhou Jia looked up:

"Why?"

"According to my experience, if you want to contact me, you will definitely ask someone to inform you when you get there. I never mentioned that I only remembered it a few months ago." Zhao San said:

"Young master has been trying to find someone. It can be seen that he is thinking about the past, but others may not be the same."

"in addition……"

After pursing his lips, he spoke slowly:

"To put it bluntly, the city is relatively peaceful now, but it is not very stable outside the city. People often disappear."

"There are also some human traffickers..."

"Anyway, the young master should be mentally prepared."

Zhou Yi opened his mouth, sighed softly for a long time, and nodded:

"What Third Brother Zhao said is that I also do my best to obey fate. It would be best if I could find him. If I can't find him, there is nothing I can do."

"Young Master did not forget his old friend when he left Jimin Lane. I admire him for his thoughtfulness." Zhao San said seriously:

"There are several rich men and lords around Hongjiabao. They also recruited refugees last year. If you are passing by with a message, I will help you find out."

"Uncle Zheng didn't make it to Hongjiabao, maybe he went to other places."

"Thank you." Zhou Yi's eyes lit up, he took out some big money from his pocket and stuffed it into the other person's hand:

"Thank you, Third Brother Zhao."

"It doesn't have to be like this, you're welcome." After a few shirks, Zhao San accepted the money and secretly decided to take the time to ask more questions.

There has been no news about the old friend. Although it is a bit regretful, it also makes Zhou Yi have to let go of his thoughts and continue to practice with concentration.

"Come!"

Liu Zhen turned his fat body, opened his big hand, and struck suddenly with a diagonal thrust.

"call……"

The wind howls in the palm.

Zhou Yi's breathing shortened, and he felt a bad wind blowing against his face. His eyes were sore, and his field of vision was severely restricted. He had to retreat continuously to avoid the sharp edge.

But the opponent was unforgiving and struck out with both palms.

"Take my move of four gates and six seals!"

Liu Zhen shouted low and moved his black evil hands. His chubby hands seemed to be filled with a black energy, which made Zhou Yi dare not touch them easily.

"snort!"

With a slight hum, Zhou Yi lowered his hips and bent his waist, avoiding the front and moving forward with the heel of his palms. He responded with Xingyun Hands, but he did not fall behind.

The thirty-six postures of throwing the monument have long been mastered in his hands.

Change as you wish and respond with ease.

Depending on the situation, although it is difficult to support, it will not be defeated for a while.

"Peng!"

"Wait a moment!"

The two collided, Zhou Yi retreated continuously, his face turned blue and white, he couldn't help but shouted, shook his head, rubbed his hands and sighed:

"That's it, I admit defeat."

"Haha..." Liu Zhenlang laughed:

"Brother Zhou, your palm skills are still a bit weak."

"It's not that Brother Xiao Yi is poor in palm skills, but that Master Liu, your palm skills are strong." Yu Zhuang, who was watching from the side, shook his head and complimented:

"The power of the palms is long and concentrated. This is an excellent palm technique. In the martial arts academy, only the top three martial arts performers in the year will be taught."

"Of course." Liu Zhen raised his eyebrows:

"I spent hundreds of taels of silver on this palm technique."

"pity!"

Halfway through, he sighed again:

"Recently, I feel like I'm always a little bit worse, and I can't completely change things and make it perfect."

As early as a year ago, he felt that his energy and blood were surging, and there were faint signs of breaking through the level and advancing to body training, but he still had not broken through after several months.

Without skin refining, it would be difficult to significantly increase one's strength.

In the beginning, when he competed with Zhou Yi in palm skills, he easily gained the upper hand. Now, although he can still win, it takes a lot of energy.

Although Liu Zhen didn't care much about martial arts, he was still a little discouraged.

"Fat man."

Li Yu didn't know when he appeared nearby. Hearing this, he smiled and said:

"I'll teach you a trick and I'll guarantee you a breakthrough within a month, but I'm afraid you won't want to."

"Oh!" Liu Zhen's eyes lit up:

"you say."

"As long as you insist on abstinence and seclusion for a month, without doing anything else, your Qi and blood will be perfected on their own." Li Yu said with a smile:

"I heard that you run to Goulan every three days, and all the energy and blood you have just accumulated are consumed by women. How can it be so easy to break through?"

"Who said that?" Liu Zhen's face turned red:

"And they do it too."

"Are you competing with them?" Li Yu rolled his eyes:

"He Shouzhen's family is in the medicine business. The He family is not short of elixirs to strengthen the foundation and nourish the body. It is not difficult to replenish the depleted Qi and blood."

"Everyone else has their own methods. You don't even have a decent martial arts master in your family, so I'm afraid there's no one with this kind of experience to advise you."

Liu Zhen opened his mouth, unable to refute.

It's not like no one has ever talked about abstinence and passing the test. The master of the Black Evil Martial Arts School mentioned it, but for young people, it's not that easy to control.

Only poor people abstain from sexual intercourse.

Rich people…

That is because you are not comfortable with yourself!

"never mind."

Looking at Liu Zhen's look, Li Yu knew that his persuasion was useless. He shook his head, stepped forward, and said:

"You are the only son in the family. No one is competing for the family property. Your martial arts skills are about the same. You don't have to work hard like others."

"Just figure it out yourself!"

"Yeah." Yu Zhuang blinked:

"What does she mean?"

"Hehe..." Liu Zhen smiled proudly and said:

"You don't know?"

"Although Li Yu and Su Yunwen have good family backgrounds, how can the real heir of the family come here? They are not as good as me in this regard."

"Oh!" Yu Zhuang seemed to understand:

"Speaking of which, these young masters have seldom been absent from work during this period."

"yes."

Liu Zhen touched his chin:

"I heard that the lady is coming to Beijing this year, and there is a high probability that she will not come here. Why are they so active? Could it be that they have nowhere to go?"

Zhou Yi shook his head.

It seems that Liu Xinran did not make the matter a big deal after all, but Su Yunwen and others are indeed much more honest.

His eyes fell towards the sea of ​​consciousness light curtain.

Blood transfusion (11/100)

Dingyang Zhuang: Getting Started (89/100)

Monument Breaker: Proficient (17/100)

Judging from other people he has come into contact with, in the early stages of cultivation, especially in the entry-level stage, his progress is almost the same as that of ordinary people, and may even be slightly slower.

But as long as you practice, you will make progress.

The gap with ordinary people gradually widens.

Especially for martial arts, you can practice it once with a cup of tea. It is not difficult to practice dozens of times a day, and your experience can increase quickly.

In time, as long as he doesn't commit suicide, he will definitely become a top master.

pity……

‘The increase in cultivation is too slow! ’

‘I have put aside my martial arts training as much as possible and spent as much time as possible cultivating Dingyang Zhuang, but the blood exchange progress is still very slow. ’

"Brother Xiao Yi."

Yu Zhuang said:

"Shall we go on patrol outside?"

"Um."

Zhou Yi nodded:

"Walk."

…………

Day after day, month after month.

The warm days of spring have arrived.

It depends on the situation,

The two young ladies probably won’t come this year.

However, the fact that Su Yunwen and others took Liu Xiao to a brothel was found out by Chen Tou for some reason, causing Chen Tou to become furious and reprimand him in public.

It is also necessary to reorganize the rules of the nursing home.

For a while.

Even Liu Zhen is much more honest.

"Gulu..."

When the Qi and Blood Pill is taken down, it turns into a warm current, pouring into the limbs and bones and the blood vessels all over the body, changing the Qi and blood along with the operation of the Ding Yang Pillar.

After a while.

Zhou Yi opened his eyes, stood up from the boulder, picked up the long knife beside him and started practicing.

The progress of the blood transfusion is not satisfactory, but it is due to the increase in endurance, especially after taking the Qi and Blood Pill, the Splitting Wind Knife technique can be practiced a few more times.

Nowadays, it is gradually approaching the perfection of mastery.

Compared to the monument smasher, he currently relies on the splitting wind sword technique.

certainly.

Thanks to daily mountain patrols, mountain climbing has broken through the mastery stage last month, and as expected, has reached the Dacheng level.

getting Started!

skilled!

proficient!

Great success!

I wonder if there will be a realm after Dacheng?

"who?"

There was a pause in the sword's wind, and Zhou Yi turned to look at Lin Zhong.

"it's me."

A beautiful figure walked slowly out of the forest, looked at the long knife in Zhou Yi's hand, looked slightly surprised, and then asked:

"Zhou Huyuan, have you seen Wang Baoxin? I remember it's your turn to patrol the mountain today?"

"It's Miss Liu." Zhou Yi put away the knife and handed it over:

"Wang Huyuan was with me at first, but then he left after seeing nothing unusual. He didn't mean to be absent from work."

"Heh..." Liu Xinran chuckled:

"Zhou Huyuan is very considerate to his colleagues."

Then he sighed:

"It's a pity that Wang Baoxin didn't say anything good about Zhou Huyuan in front of our siblings. Instead, he mentioned you many times as being inhumane and disgusting."

Um?

What does the other party mean?

Sow discord?

Gain trust?

Considering the other party’s status, it seems that this is not necessary, right?

Zhou Yi had doubts in his heart, but it didn't show on his face. He spoke respectfully:

"An ancient saying goes: No one is perfect. It's normal for Wang Huyuan to dislike me."

"Oh!" Zhou Yi's attitude made Liu Xinran's beautiful eyes flash slightly:

"Aren't you annoyed?"

"Annoyed." Zhou Yi said:

"Zhou will try to distance himself from him in the future."

"Really?" Liu Xinran stepped closer, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes:

"If I lied to you, wouldn't you have missed a friend?"

Um?

Zhou Yi looked up.

Is this person sick?

But maybe it was the past experience that kept Liu Xinran's heart heavy, as if he had never been joking now.

This time he became naughty, and his face showed a bit of agility.

After thinking about it seriously, Zhou Yifang spoke slowly:

"I don't think Miss Liu will lie to me. She will inevitably have some grudges against Wang Baoxin in her heart. She may not be able to help him, but it is inevitable."

"However, people don't care about their hearts when it comes to things. No matter whether Wang Huyuan hates me or not, as long as he is enthusiastic on the surface, Zhou will reciprocate his kindness."

"When others do good to me, I do the same; when others speak coldly, I respond; although other people's words have an impact, it doesn't matter."

"Hmm..." Liu Xinran's beautiful eyes flashed, she looked at Zhou Yi carefully, then nodded and said:

"Unexpectedly, Zhou Huyuan sees everything clearly."

"so."

She straightened her back and said:

"Take me to the place where Wang Baoxin last left. I'll see him if I have anything to do."

"..."

Zhou Yi looked at the other party.

Today, Liu Xinran is dressed in a smart outfit, with a sword hanging on her waist, and a cold and sinister air between her brows. It looks like she is definitely not outing to enjoy the scenery.

However, Chen Tou had warned the Liu siblings to do their best to comply with their instructions, otherwise they would be punished, and Wang Baoxin was Liu Xiao's personal servant.

That being the case,

Naturally, he had no reason to refuse.

"yes."

Nodding, Zhou Yi stretched out his hand and said:

"Miss Liu, please come with me."

The two arrived at the halfway point of the mountain. Before Zhou Yi could speak, Liu Xinran frowned and took out a wooden box from her body.

The wooden box was the size of a matchbox, and there seemed to be something inside, causing the box to shake.

"This way!"

Turning around, Liu Xinran walked towards the forest.

"Miss Liu." Zhou Yi's expression changed slightly, and he stretched out his hand to stop her but it was too late, so he sighed helplessly and followed her with big steps.

Following the fingerprints on the wooden box, the two walked farther and farther.

Gradually.

Zhou Yi's expression was already a bit wrong.

"Miss Liu, we can't go any further."

He quickened his pace and stretched out his hand to stop:

"If we go any further, we will no longer be within the scope of the nursing home inspection. I'm afraid there will be danger."

"Danger?"

Liu Xinran's beautiful eyes shrank, and her eyes were filled with coldness:

"The pill my brother took was tampered with, and it almost ruined his practice. Now Wang Baoxin comes to a place like this again?"

"You want me not to go any further?"

"Mr. Liu's elixir was tampered with?" Zhou Yi's expression changed:

"Miss Liu suspects it's Wang Baoxin?"

"If that's the case, Miss Liu can tell Chen Huyuan that if he takes action, he will be able to find out the truth. It's best not to be impulsive."

"My brother is the only member of the Liu family. Someone wants to harm him. Do you want me not to be impulsive?" Liu Xinran suddenly stepped forward, approaching Zhou Yi, and pressed his chest with one hand with an angry face:

"If you are afraid, go back by yourself!"

"Um!"

Zhou Jia groaned and took a few steps back involuntarily, his eyes even more horrified.

This kind of power...

Leather refining!

Liu Xinran is clearly a skin refining warrior!

Seeing that the other party turned around and continued to move forward, Zhou Yi felt helpless and could only take out something from his body, and then hurriedly followed.
