Longevity and cultivation, I evolved martial arts into immortality
Chapter 98: Changes in the Deep Mountains
It was late autumn, and the leaves on the mountain were turning yellow.
The morning breeze blew, and the fallen leaves flew.
After Chu Liang dealt with everything, he rode on his donkey and set off on the road back to the village.
He had been away for more than two months, and he had never been away from the village for such a long time in this life.
"Donkey, let's go back to the village and see how the Chu family mansion is being repaired!" Chu Liang chuckled.
"Ah..."
The donkey raised its head and responded, and its drooping ears moved.
The road was very smooth, without the rush when it came, and the donkey's hooves slowed down a lot.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Qingshi Village was in sight from afar.
It can be seen that the houses that were destroyed by the tiger monster before have been repaired.
There are many fine wood and stones piled up at the entrance of the village, neatly stacked, and I think they are going to be used to build the Chu family mansion.
Several workers are working together to lift a piece of wood.
"One, two, three... up!"
They shouted slogans, their faces flushed, their foreheads covered with sweat, and they lifted the wood and walked towards the village.
Chu Liang knew these people, all of them were adult men in the village.
He rode his donkey and continued forward.
Just as he reached the entrance of the village, he suddenly saw an acquaintance.
Zhao Hu!
It's interesting to say that I always run into this guy at the entrance of the village.
Zhao Hu now looks less high-spirited than before, and more silent and introverted.
He was teaching a young man in the village to shoot arrows, his eyes were focused and his mind was concentrated, and he didn't notice Chu Liang.
"Swish!"
The young man shot an arrow and looked over expectantly, but found that he didn't hit the straw target, and couldn't help feeling disappointed.
He said in annoyance: "Master Zhao, do I have no talent for archery? I might as well go to farm with my father."
"You have only practiced for a few days?" Zhao Hu shook his head and said, "You are not a genius, how can you become proficient in archery in a few days? You can only get a feel for it by practicing more. Pay attention to the wind direction next time."
"Master Zhao, is there really a genius who can become proficient in archery in a few days?"
"Yes, I have seen one."
"Who?"
The young man was a little curious.
Just as Zhao Hu was about to speak, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"Zhao Hu!"
"Hmm?"
He was shocked and turned around immediately. After seeing Chu Liang's appearance, he subconsciously said: "Ah..."
He opened his mouth and moved his lips, but only said the word "Ah". The word "Liang" did not come out for a long time. The expression on his face suddenly became humble, and he bowed carefully and shouted: "Chu... Master Chu."
Chu Liang nodded slightly: "Hmm, teach archery well."
"Yes."
Zhao Hu answered humbly and respectfully.
Chu Liang did not say much, and rode past him on his donkey.
Zhao Hu looked at his back with a complicated expression, and finally sighed.
Although he had not seen him for only two months, he felt that Chu Liang's power was getting stronger. Just a glance at him gave him an inexplicable sense of oppression, which made him dare not even think of chatting with him.
At the entrance of the village, many villagers had recognized Chu Liang.
"It's Aliang, Aliang is back."
"What Aliang? It's Master Chu!"
"Yes, yes, Master Chu, it's Master Chu who's back, go and call Master Chu's family!"
The villagers came up one after another, all with humble and flattering smiles on their faces.
Time has changed, and except for the Chu family, probably no one dares to call out the word "Aliang".
Not long after, Master Hu hurried out.
When he saw Chu Liang, his eyelids twitched, and he felt that Chu Liang was much stronger than two months ago.
"This guy is simply a monster, how can his strength grow so fast?" Master Hu muttered to himself.
He himself has not made any progress in the past two months, and he lives in fear all day, and he has to be interrogated by Wu Neng and his teammates from time to time.
Based on his understanding of Chu Liang, he is 80% sure that Wu Qian was killed by Chu Liang.
But he always told Wu Neng and his teammates that he didn't know.
For some reason, compared with Wu Neng, he is more afraid of Chu Liang.
"Master Hu!" Chu Liang saw him and shouted to him with a smile.
"Master Chu, you are finally back!"
Master Hu was smiling, holding his robe in both hands, and ran towards Chu Liang quickly.
Behind him, his second uncle and others also came.
The rest of the people in the village, no matter what they were doing, all put down their work and ran to the village entrance.
Chu Liang's return, before he did anything, alarmed the whole village.
"You didn't even say hello in advance. If I knew you were coming back, I would have asked the cook at home to prepare wine and food for you!" Master Hu ran up and said.
"It doesn't matter, it's not time for dinner yet."
Chu Liang laughed and got off the donkey.
He walked straight towards his second uncle and others.
After not seeing him for two months, his second uncle's face was much ruddy than before. He no longer looked like a hard-working farmer, but had a bit of wealth.
"Aliang, you are finally back!" The second uncle was full of joy, and Chu Shan beside him was excited.
"I've troubled my second uncle during this period." Chu Liang said with a smile.
"No, it's not a big deal to build a house." The second uncle patted Chu Liang's shoulder, "But you, you went to the county town to learn martial arts without even saying hello. The county town is not like a village. I'm afraid you will offend some big shots in the county town."
"Don't worry."
Chu Liang smiled. In terms of status and popularity, he is now considered a big shot.
After all, he was praised by the leader of the Wu League.
I don't know how many people in the county town want to make friends with him.
Behind the second uncle, the fourth uncle, fifth uncle and others were all there.
They also wanted to come forward to talk, but they didn't know where to start. Facing Chu Liang, whom they hadn't seen for two months, they were a little reserved for a moment. They stood back and cowered. They could only count on their second uncle to say more nice things to them. .
Chu Liang looked at Chu Shan and said with a smile: "Ah Shan, come here and let me see if you have grown taller."
"Brother Liang!"
Chu Shan looked excited and walked forward quickly.
At this age, he is growing taller. As long as he eats enough, he will quickly grow taller.
"Brother Liang, I haven't slacked off in the past two months. I have been practicing the archery skills you gave me!" Chu Liang was so excited that he couldn't hold back his voice.
"Oh? How's your practice going?" Chu Liang asked with a smile.
"Within ten meters, I can already hit nine out of ten shots!"
"A target that doesn't move?"
"A moving target will do, too."
"Okay! Not bad!"
Chu Liang was quite satisfied and praised with a smile.
Chu Shan added: "Brother Liang, the three hounds you left behind are really powerful. They can catch prey by themselves. Recently, there are too many prey at home to eat."
Just as he was talking, three black hounds with shiny fur rushed down from the forest not far away.
"Woof woof!"
They were wagging their tails, excited, and ran towards Chu Liang quickly.
After not seeing each other for two months, these three dog demons have completely grown up, and their hair has changed from the yellowish brown they had when they were young to the black they are now.
They squeezed through the crowd, squeezed in and jumped around Chu Liang, making "ying" sounds in excitement.
People in the village praised them one after another, saying that these dogs were very humane.
After some pleasantries, Chu Liang came to the Chu family mansion.
The foundation of the house has been laid, and the scale is more than ten times larger than Chu Liang's own small yard. The surrounding land has been purchased and can be expanded at any time in the future.
"A Liang, what do you think?" the second uncle asked.
"Okay, that's enough."
Chu Liang nodded, took out some banknotes from his arms and gave them to his second uncle.
He asked: "Second uncle, have you ever thought about living in the county town in the future?"
"Going to the county seat?"
The second uncle was startled. This topic was a bit far away for him.
The other relatives cast envious glances at him.
What Chu Liang said was very obvious. If he had the intention, he would take his second uncle's family to the county town in the future.
The second uncle thought for a moment and said, "Ah Liang, I'm too old. I can't help you much if I go to the county town. From now on... if you don't mind the trouble, can you get your brother Ah Shan to go to the county town?"
"Of course!" Chu Liang agreed with a smile.
He has so many resources now that he can send as many people as he wants to the county seat, and it is no problem for him to let Chu Shan enter a martial arts gym to learn martial arts.
It's just that Chu Shan is only fourteen years old now and is still growing, so he can't learn martial arts.
It’s almost time to wait until you are sixteen or seventeen.
He patted Chu Shan on the shoulder and found that the boy's body was very strong and he was a good martial artist.
At this time, Mr. Hu on the side suddenly said: "Mr. Chu, it's cold standing outside, why don't you go to my house and sit down."
Chu Liang glanced at him and found that he was hesitant to speak. He obviously had something to say, but it was just not convenient to say it in front of so many people.
He nodded slightly and said, "Okay."
He and his second uncle came to Master Hu's house and went to a side hall.
The rest of the relatives were left in the lobby.
In the side hall, Mr. Hu lowered his voice and told Chu Liang about recent events: "Chu Liang, Wu Neng's teammates have been here many times recently."
The second uncle also said: "Yes, Ah Liang, why did you come back suddenly? The county is safe, you should continue to stay in the county."
He looked worried, fearing that Wu Neng and others would suddenly come and kill him.
Song Zhong stopped him last time, but this time Chu Liang was the only one.
What if Wu Neng and others come?
Seeing their worried looks, Chu Liang couldn't help but smile and said, "It's okay, they won't show up again in the future."
Hearing this, both of them were stunned.
The second uncle subconsciously thought that Chu Liang had found a connection and asked someone to help him solve Wu Neng's matter.
But Mr. Hu was different. He heard another meaning in Chu Liang's words - they are all dead!
He was horrified and suddenly shuddered.
It's so cruel. There are so many masters who kill at will, just like killing chickens and dogs.
He has better information than his second uncle and others. He knows a lot of things that have happened in the county recently, and he also understands Chu Liang's character.
If you don't move, it will cause big trouble.
"Chu Liang, what will the Wu Meng say?" Mr. Hu asked cryptically.
"As long as I'm more valuable than them, the Martial Alliance won't say anything." Chu Liang said calmly.
"Right……"
Master Hu suddenly understood.
After all, Chu Liang is a genius, and his value is much greater than that of Wu Neng and others.
After chatting for a few more words, they left the side hall.
The subsequent lunch was at Hu’s house.
After lunch, Chu Liang said goodbye to his second uncle and others, saying that there were still many things to do in the county.
"A Liang, be careful in the county. Don't worry about us. Just take care of yourself." Before leaving, the second uncle said sincerely.
"Second uncle, don't worry, I understand everything."
Chu Liang smiled and waved, then got on the donkey and left Juechen.
The county seat is not far from Qingshi Village.
The way back was smooth, no one blocked us all the way.
"My sword skills are almost there, but my body skills are still lacking." On the way back, Chu Liang silently summarized the problems of the previous battle.
His sword is fast, but he is not fast enough.
This is an obvious weakness.
When he bursts out with all his strength, his speed can keep up with the sword skills, but Chu Liang feels that this burst is too rough.
He needs a martial art specifically for body skills.
"When I return to the county, I will go to the library of the Martial Alliance to have a look. There should be martial arts suitable for my body skills in the library."
Chu Liang thought as he walked, recalling every move of the battle in his mind.
Time passed unknowingly.
It was past four o'clock in the afternoon, and the city gate was already in sight.
"Huh? Something happened?"
Chu Liang frowned suddenly and looked at the county gate.
Outside the South City Gate, more than a dozen corpses covered with white cloth were neatly placed.
Next to the corpses, some people looked sad, and some people looked worried.
Among them was the disciple of Qiu Dao Martial Arts School that Chu Liang knew.
"Donkey, go and have a look!"
"Ang..."
The donkey responded, and his four hooves moved faster, leading Chu Liang to the city gate.
Chu Liang got off the donkey, found the disciple of the Autumn Sword Martial Arts School, and asked, "What's going on here?"
"Brother Chu?"
The disciple was refreshed, wiped his tears, and said, "Brother Chu, it's Brother He... They were in trouble. They encountered monsters while practicing in the mountains and unfortunately lost their lives..."
"Which Brother He?"
"Brother He Yuan from Qianlan Village."
"Oh..."
Chu Liang had some impression of this name. He remembered that this person had listened to Master Dao's lectures with him, and also practiced "Autumn Sword". Master Dao called him to the stage to demonstrate the sword technique.
He had chatted with this person before.
Unexpectedly, when they met again, this person was already lying under the white cloth.
"I remember that He Yuan has the strength of two blood and qi, and the Autumn Sword Technique has already entered the door. Ordinary monsters should not be able to do anything to him, not to mention that he has teammates to help him. Could it be that he encountered a monster with three blood and qi or even stronger?"
Chu Liang thought to himself.
He was about to ask again when he suddenly heard more crying sounds coming from far away.
Chu Liang moved his ears and looked in the direction of the sound.
On the official road in the distance, more than ten wooden carts were slowly approaching.
The wooden wheels creaked, and the wooden boards were stained brown by blood. On each board lay a mutilated corpse.
"Is someone dead again?"
