Illustrated Book of All Things: My martial arts can be upgraded infinitely

The Kingdom of Wu in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Southern border.

Qingbei Town.

There is a mountain one mile outside the town called "White Short Mountain". There is a dilapidated and abandoned mountain temple on the top of the mountain.

morning.

The weather was clear, sunny and cloudless.

Xu Qing's clothes are ragged, his hair is very long, it has not been washed for a long time, and it exudes a sour smell. He is obviously a little beggar.

He could only find an open space near the mountain temple and bury his grandfather Jiuzhi's body. He only wrapped it in an old straw mat and erected a tombstone with wood. On the tombstone there were characters carved in stone.

The Tomb of Grandpa Nine Fingers.

"grandfather."

Xu Qing stood up and looked at the tombstone with a hint of sadness on his face, but he soon cheered up, "It's time for me to leave. I'll come see you next time and I'll give you a coffin made of golden nanmu."

The words fell.

Xu Qing faced the rising sun, and the sunlight shone down, making his shadow very long and reflecting a faint golden light on his hair.

Xu Qing went down the mountain.

The one-mile journey was not far, and he soon arrived at the gate of Qingbei Town. Twenty or thirty meters away from the gate, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family in Qingbei Town, 'Jiang Feiying', was giving porridge.

"The eldest lady of the Jiang family is really a good person!"

"yes!"

"I've been giving porridge here for three days. I don't know how many homeless people and beggars have survived because of Miss Jiang's kindness in giving porridge."

"..."

Xu Qing heard a lot of people talking in his ears. He looked up and saw a beautiful and charming young lady wiping the sweat on her face and giving porridge to the beggars.

In the past sixteen years, Xu Qing has been living in a homeless place with his grandfather Jiuzhi, wandering around, and it is even difficult for him to stay in one place for a year.

He was abandoned by his parents because of his mental retardation when he was born. Fortunately, he was rescued by his grandfather Jiuzhi and raised him. It was not until his grandfather passed away yesterday that Xu Qing suddenly awakened to Su Hui.

previous life.

Xu Qing was a self-made rich man on Earth, but he was tortured by illness in his later years. He passed away in the hospital. Lying in the hospital bed, he lamented that life is short and that a mortal's life will end in a hundred years.

Unexpectedly, he was reincarnated into this world with the memories of his previous life.

Just when Xu Qing awakened Su Hui, a special silver illustration appeared in his mind, like a silver token, with the word "all things" engraved on the front and the word "illustration" engraved on the back.

Named: Illustrated Book of All Things.

It can accommodate everything in the world for upgrading and strengthening.

Xu Qing is still not sure how to operate it specifically.

He also researched it, but there is no response yet. Maybe it’s not time yet?

at this time.

Xu Qing has arrived at the gate of Qingbei Town, and he is queuing up to enter the city.

three months ago.

Xu Qing followed his grandfather Jiuzhi to Qingbei Town, lived in the dilapidated and abandoned mountain temple, and gradually got to know Qingbei Town.

Jiang family.

One of the three major aristocratic families in Qingbei Town, they are mainly in charge of the leather and cloth business in Qingbei Town. It can be said that they started as a "cloth merchant" and reached their current position step by step.

The other two aristocratic families are the He family and the Nangong family.

The He family is mainly in charge of the rice and meat business in Qingbei Town, while the Nangong family has a bigger background and seems to have something to do with the government. He is the only salt merchant in Qingbei Town.

It can be said.

The three major aristocratic families are the three pillars of Qingbei Town.

at last.

That is the mayor and yamen of Qingbei Town.

The remaining various forces, large and small, all rely on these pillars to survive.

"stop."

The city gate.

Already queued up to Xu Qing.

according to rules.

Rebellious bandits and the like are not allowed to enter the city. Beggars and refugees need to pay a city fee, and they are not allowed to stay in the city at night unless they have a place to stay.

"You are a beggar, pay me."

The guard looked at Xu Qing, who was in ragged clothes, with messy hair and a sour smell, and gestured to a wooden box next to him, "A beggar comes to town with three cents."

"good."

Xu Qing nodded. He took out three coins from his pocket and put it into the wooden box. The guard then gave Xu Qing a wooden sign.

"This is your wooden sign for entering the city. You must take it and don't lose it. It needs to be checked when you leave the city. If it is missing, you need to pay three more coins."

The guard reminded me kindly.

"Thank you, sir."

Xu Qing lowered his head.

"go in."

The guard waved his hand.

"..."

Xu Qing lowered his head and entered the city.

"Next."

The guard's voice came from behind.

Inside the city.

It is mainly divided into outer city and inner city.

The inner city was basically populated by dignitaries, wealthy merchants and warriors. After Xu Qing entered the city, he could only be active in the outer city and was not eligible to enter the inner city.

Naturally, the people living in the outer city are ordinary businessmen, there are also some gangs, martial arts schools, and most of them are ordinary civilians.

This time.

Xu Qing's purpose in going to the city was simple.

First.

Xu Qing wants to make money.

the second.

Xu Qing wants to enter a martial arts gym.

In troubled times.

If you want to live a good life, want to be a master, and want to be respected by others, in this world, the only way out for ordinary people is to 'practice martial arts'.

As long as you master martial arts, you will have a chance to become a master.

As for ‘reading’?

That is more difficult than practicing martial arts. Studying is a qualification only reserved for those high-ranking officials. For ordinary people, in such troubled times, studying is an unimaginable luxury.

"There are many martial arts schools in the outer city, but there are only three famous ones, namely: Yinghong Martial Arts School, Gravel Martial Arts School, and Goshawk Martial Arts School."

"Yinghong Martial Arts School generally only accepts women, and the martial arts taught are more suitable for women. Gravel Martial Arts School has some requirements for origin and talent."

"Only the Goshawk Martial Arts School is different. No matter where you come from or where you come from, as long as you give money, you can enter the Goshawk Martial Arts School and practice martial arts in the Goshawk Martial Arts School."

“It’s just the price…”

Thinking room.

Xu Qing came to the door of Goshawk Martial Arts School.

"Where did the beggar come from? He dares to beg even at our Goshawk Martial Arts School."

door.

Two burly young men stood upright, exuding a ferocious aura. After seeing Xu Qing, they immediately turned coldly and even threatened to take action.

Squeak!

Just right.

The door of Goshawk Martial Arts School was pushed open, and a young man with a Chinese character's face walked out from inside. He walked like a dragon and walked like a tiger, and he was majestic. He was truly extraordinary.

"Big Brother."

"I've met senior brother."

The two burly young men immediately calmed their expressions and bowed to the young man with a Chinese character face in a very respectful tone.

"Um."

The young man with a Chinese-character face just nodded slightly, and his eyes fell on Xu Qing involuntarily.

"Where did the beggar come from?"

The elder brother with the Chinese character face said something unhurriedly.

"Ah! Senior brother! I'll drive him away right now!"

One of the burly young men was excited.

"Need not."

The elder brother with a Chinese character raised his hand to stop the burly young man, and looked at Xu Qing with interest, "What are you doing in our Goshawk Martial Arts School?"

"I want to enter the Goshawk Martial Arts School."

Xu Qing said: "How much silver do you need?"

"Hahaha……"

Can't help it.

The other burly young man laughed out loud, his tone full of sarcasm, and said, "I'm laughing to death. You, a beggar, dare to say that you want to enter our Goshawk Martial Arts School."

"puff……"

In addition, the burly young man couldn't help laughing.

"Shut up."

The elder brother with the Chinese character face snorted coldly, "Although our Goshawk Martial Arts School does not have any rigid requirements, even if you are missing arms and legs, as long as you can afford the tuition, you can enter our Goshawk Martial Arts School." Pavilion.”

"but."

"Our Goshawk Martial Arts School charges ten taels of silver a month. There is no guarantee that it will truly teach you anything. What you can achieve in the end depends on you."

"so."

"Do you have ten taels of silver?"

"No...no..."

Xu Qing lowered his head.

"..."

The two burly young men were still holding back their laughter.

Because a little beggar with no money actually dreamed of entering the Goshawk Martial Arts School, which was completely idiotic. This was the biggest joke they had seen this year.

"You can't enter the Goshawk Martial Arts School if you don't have money."

The elder brother with a Chinese character smiled and said, "But I can recommend you to a place where you have the opportunity to earn ten taels of silver in the shortest time."

"where?"

Xu Qing asked.

"Underground black boxing."

The elder brother with a Chinese character said: "In this world, if you want to make money, you have to risk your life, but some people don't even have a chance to risk their lives."

"So are you going or not?"

The big brother with a Chinese character asked.

"I go."

Thought for a moment.

Xu Qing nodded solemnly.

"Then come with me."

The big brother with a Chinese character walked straight and passed by Xu Qing, and Xu Qing quickly followed the big brother.

"this……"

then.

Only two students from the Goshawk Martial Arts School were left, looking at each other.

"You must be wondering why I want to help you, right?"

en route.

The elder brother with a Chinese character said something.

"Dear Sir, if you can help me, it will be the honor of my life."

Xu Qing lowered his head.

"Hahaha……"

The elder brother with a Chinese character laughed out loud, "What you say is quite interesting. You don't look like an ordinary little beggar."

"..."

Xu Qing remained silent.

"I'm not helping you."

The elder brother with a Chinese character said: "You look a bit like my late brother. If he were still alive, he should be about the same age as you."

"I was the one who opened that underground black boxing place. Something happened some time ago, which resulted in the death of many boxers in that underground black boxing place that I opened, and there was a lack of fresh blood."

"And your conditions are pretty good."

"So you understand?"

"Thank you for your cultivation. It is my blessing to be valued by you."

Xu Qingdao.

"interesting."

The elder brother with a Chinese character laughed again, "I hope you won't be beaten to death now. Besides, my name is Huo Yi."

"Xu Qing pays homage to Lord Huo Yi."

Xu Qing saluted again.

"I hope you can have the opportunity to call me senior brother."

Huo Yi said something.

"It will definitely live up to your expectations."

Xu Qingdao.
