Beiyin Great Sage

After packing up the tree house and cleaning up the traces of the fighting, Zhou Jia headed towards the city gate with a thick package on his back at dawn.

"Two hundred yuan!"

As expected, the entry fee has increased again, and it has doubled again on the basis of the previous increase.

"in addition."

The city gate guard looked at Zhou Jia's dress with alert eyes:

"You must leave the city before evening. There are patrol teams in the inner city to patrol. If you are found to be lingering without permission, it is not as simple as just driving you out."

"I know." Zhou Jia understood.

He had no interest in playing hide and seek with the patrol. It wouldn't be convenient to stay in an inn.

Entered the city.

It can be clearly felt that the flow of people in the inner city has increased a lot, passers-by are in a hurry, and most of their eyes are wary.

Completely different from before.

…………

Qingfengju.

It is located in the southwest of the inner city and is surrounded by dozens of giant sycamore trees.

The treehouses were carved out of the giant sycamore tree by skilled hands. Some have carved beams and painted beams for people to drink and have fun, and some have several floors for living.

This is also the only place in the inner city other than Huo Mansion where outsiders can stay overnight.

"Thirty Origin Stones!"

Soreness of pericillary teeth:

"Why is it so expensive?"

He had inquired about the market price before, but it was not at this price.

"Thirty Origin Stones a month is not considered expensive?" The shopkeeper, who was tall, thin, with a gaunt appearance and wore clothes similar to those of a Confucian scholar, shook his head when he heard this:

"This is the price only if you stay long enough. If you only stay for one day, you will need one and a half Origin Stones."

"and……"

"The price is this now, but it may not be the same in the future. Depending on the situation, it may even rise."

He smiled and tapped the high counter:

"Sir, do you want to stay or not?"

"Stop!" Zhou Jia sighed softly, stretched out his hand and took out thirty source stones:

"Stay here for a month."

Thirty Origin Stones, an ordinary fifth-grade one, may not earn that much in a year, but here it is only a month's accommodation fee.

Not counting eating.

Sure enough, living in the inner city is not easy!

"Okay." The shopkeeper collected the origin stone and waved behind him:

"Dongcheng, take this guest to the tree house on the second floor of No. 9 Tree and pack up the things there. Don't neglect the guest."

"I got it, dad." A young man walked out after hearing the sound. His triangular eyes scanned Zhou Jia's body and subconsciously curled his lips:

"Let's go!"

"Um."

Zhou Jia nodded, took the house number from the shopkeeper, and walked out.

The place he lived in was very simple. The giant sycamore tree had three floors, and each floor had a separate treehouse. The place he rented was on the second floor.

Open the door and you will find a large bedroom.

"right here!"

The young man obviously didn't like Zhou Jia. When the two passed by, he reached out his hand to cover his nose by mistake and waved hastily:

"Take care of it yourself. Don't damage anything in the house. If it's damaged, you'll have to pay for it. You'd better have enough money to pay for it."

After a few brief introductions, he left in a hurry.

Zhou Jia shook his head, tidied up a little, and then closed the door.

"call……"

He breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the bed, listening to the singing of birds and the sound of drinking and drinking outside, and his tense spirit relaxed.

This is a property directly under the Huo family. Although it is more expensive, safety can be guaranteed.

At least for this month, I no longer have to worry all day long like when I was in the outer city, and I can't even sleep well.

Well……

Don't be careless either.

On nights when there is no white hair wind, you still have to cheer up.

After calming down, he took out a book from his body, placed it in front of him and slowly opened it.

"Death Sword"

This was obtained from the man in black last night. It is a secret book of swordsmanship. There are nine swordsmanship styles in total, and each style is full of fierce murderous intent.

Even if you haven't practiced yet, you can see that this sword technique is far more powerful than the cloak and ax technique.

Subtle, chilling, sharp...

According to the classification of the Dalin Dynasty, this should be a superior swordsmanship, and only the top forces in Huojiabao can inherit it.

Paired with it, there is also a soft sword.

The soft sword is about three feet long together with the hilt. The blade is as thin as paper and as soft as mud. After entering the source power, it immediately becomes as sharp as mud when cutting iron.

The hilt of the sword has a hidden mechanism, and the tip of the sword can be swallowed by the top of the grip, so that it can be buckled outside the belt without being visible at all.

Top grade weapons?

What was the origin of the man in black yesterday, that he had so many good things on him?

There is naturally no answer to this question.

Wrap your fingers softly!

Zhou Jia took out the soft sword, shook one hand, and the blade instantly became straight. According to the secret book, he moved slowly and practiced the moves one by one.

Shaking the wrist and flicking the sword!

Seal your throat!

Moon capture style!

The wind returns to the swallow!

Bow down and look at the moon!

…

Each of the nine sword techniques is different, but without exception, every move is filled with fierce murderous intent. The sword comes out to seal the throat. No wonder it is called a life-threatening sword.

Moves are just one of them. The foundation of superior martial arts is the movement of source power within the body.

Only when paired with source power, the power of the moves will become terrifying.

Without the guidance of a famous teacher, if you rely solely on secrets to practice, you will often achieve twice the result with half the effort, and even most people will not be able to get into the practice at all.

Half a day later.

Introduction to the Deadly Sword (1/400)

"The trait of holding soldiers is simply cheating!"

Stopping what he was doing, Zhou Jia wiped the sweat from his forehead, the joy in his eyes uncontrollable:

"Although violence can increase explosive power and strength in a short period of time, when it comes to its own benefits, the obvious potential of holding soldiers is greater."

"No!"

"The two are almost incomparable. There may be other secret methods that can do the violence of the Earthly Star, but the Tianying Star's weapon control is almost a bug."

In a short period of time, the benefits of holding soldiers are not obvious.

But as long as you learn weapons and martial arts, the benefits of this trait will become more and more obvious as time goes by.

Just like this deadly sword.

When he didn't get the Tianying Star, even if he got the secret book, he could only look at it and wouldn't think of practicing at all.

Because I can’t learn!

now.

After half a day of practice, I actually got through.

Just the entry level requires 400 experience. It is indeed an advanced swordsmanship. You must know that the mastery of shield counterattack only takes 300 experience.

He took out the dried meat strips from the package and swallowed them with water. After his energy recovered, Zhou Jia picked up the soft sword again and started practicing.

Although we entered the inner city and were temporarily safe, we could not relax just yet.

Every additional strength increases the chance of survival when he encounters danger in the future.

Eat, drink, practice, sleep...

In a flash, it was more than ten days.

Occasionally going out, Zhou Jia also saw the prosperity of the inner city.

With the high city wall, most of Baimaofeng was blocked in the outer city. Occasionally, fish slipped through the net, but as long as they were careful, they would not cause fatal harm.

As a result, the inner city is also bustling at night.

Qingfengju is also crowded at night.

"Have you heard that one of the hall masters of Black Lotus was killed? He was an eighth-grade master. There were seventeen kinds of wounds on the body. He should have died from being surrounded."

"Has it already affected the eighth grade?"

"In the past few days, people from the temple have also taken action, and Lord Huo Fort is said to have come forward."

"The castle master is a super master. With his intervention, it should be quiet outside, right?"

"No, there are also super-grade ones in the barony."

"Wow..."

"In the outer city, there are hundreds of corpses that are left uncollected every day, especially in the West District. When it gets dark, almost no one dares to show their head, and some are killed even if they are hiding at home."

"It's so miserable. Fortunately we are in the inner city."

"In my opinion, the inner city will also be in chaos."

"Bah, don't talk nonsense!"

Zhou Jia silently stood up to pay the bill and returned to his residence.

The outer city is getting more and more chaotic!

Fortunately, I entered the inner city early. I heard that in a few days, the city gate would be completely closed, prohibiting people from outside the city from entering. Then the situation would be even worse.

"Boom!"

There was a knock on the door.

"Who?" Zhou Jia tensed up.

"Me." The voice of the shopkeeper's son Dongcheng, the waiter in the shop, sounded:

"Open the door!"

"Is something wrong?" Zhou Jia opened a crack in the door and looked outside.

In addition to the waiter Dongcheng, there were two women standing outside the door. The two women were young, each holding a package, with slightly panicked expressions. Their messy hair covered their cheeks, making it difficult to see their faces.

"You can add two more people to this room." The waiter said:

"There is no room in the inn."

"Add someone?" Zhou Jia's face darkened.
