Pushing martial arts horizontally: starting from predicting opportunities

Xu Guang looked a little thoughtful, and he knew what Old Man Zhao meant.

Old Zhao is not from Feiyun City, or even from Qingzhou. Xu Sanduo said before that Feiyun City is very repulsive to outsiders. Old Zhao can stay in the city safely for so many years because there are people behind him who support him.

But in exchange, Old Man Zhao and the disciples he has trained over the years also need to join the army and become a member of the guard of Feiyun City when Feiyun City encounters a crisis.

Xu Guang thought a lot. He became a disciple of Old Man Zhao and followed the path of Miss Cheng Lian'er of the Cheng family. He thought that Old Man Zhao should know the conditions that the Cheng family negotiated with him at that time, but he didn't mention it just now.

Does this mean that the Cheng family, or Cheng Lian'er, is also a member of the City Guards?

After thinking about this, Xu Guang looked at his senior brothers and sisters. Are these people's families also supporting the City Shoufu behind the scenes?

And why the Cheng family didn't make it clear that the chariots and horses support the city guard, it's not difficult to guess.

Look at the big from the small, and see the leopard in the tube.

Feiyun City is not small, with a population of hundreds of thousands. The forces in the city are complex, but they are related to each other. It seems that it is all a game between high-level officials.

The game is naturally between the three top forces - Feiyun City City Guards, Handao Sect and Xianhe Sect.

Thinking about it, perhaps only the three major families in the inner city have the qualifications not to take sides. The rest of the forces, large and small, cannot escape the shadow of the three major forces.

Xu Guang's eyes narrowed.

The city guard is now eager to force Mr. Zhao to take sides. To a certain extent, this is a sign of guilty conscience.

Does it mean that the so-called Huangtian Sect outside the city has not completely settled down?

"I don't have any opinion on whether you should join the army, but what I can tell you is that if you are not willing to or have other thoughts when you are recruited by the city guard in the future, I will stop your secret medicine. , not a threat, but a request from the city guard, and also to save your lives."

These were the last words Master Zhao said to Xu Guang.

Xu Guang was silent, with some hesitation in his heart. Master Zhao was able to speak so clearly to him, which was the most benevolent and righteous thing to do.

He was a little undecided. Master Zhao was taking the pressure on this matter, otherwise those who were recorded would have to join the army. However, Master Zhao asked him to choose, but it stumped him.

Choice is a very difficult thing.

There are advantages and disadvantages to joining the army. The advantage is that it is easier to come into contact with corpses, especially those with advanced cultivation.

The downside is that there are dangers.

The safest option, of course, is to work in Xu Sanjia’s slaughterhouse, but it accumulates too slowly, and the blood of animals is really not as good as human blood.

Xu Guang seemed absent-minded during the afternoon practice. He was not the only one who was like this, but most of his brothers and sisters were also like this.

Thinking about the news they learned today, everyone was surprised and panicked.

War is never about one or two people dying.

As soon as Old Man Zhao left, everyone started to clean up. Even Xu Sanduo lost interest in going to the brothel.

Xu Guang couldn't control it too much and left looking dejected.

His mood was also a bit complicated. Master Zhao was kind to him. If he didn't agree, although it would have no impact on Master Zhao, he would not provide him with the secret medicine again.

After returning home, Xu's mother was quite surprised, "Brother Guang, why are you back so early today?"

In front of his mother, Xu Guang put away his inner thoughts and said with a smile on his face, "Master said that I practiced too hard in the past few days and asked me to go home and spend more time with my mother."

When Xu's mother heard this, her smile was as bright as a flower, "Your master is a good person."

Xu Guang nodded in agreement.

Although Old Man Zhao half-controlled many disciples using the method of making secret medicine, to a certain extent, he also used this method to control the disciples to advance and retreat with him and work for the city guard, but this is a method used by all sects. No way to comment.

Apart from this, Old Man Zhao is actually quite kind to his disciples and can be considered a good master.

The mother and son chatted for a long time. When they talked about the lack of food in the city, Xu's mother was a little sad.

Her natal family all starved to death during a severe drought twenty-three years ago.

Xu Guang comforted him for a long time.

night.

After thinking about it, Xu Guang still didn't want to join the army and work for others.

He is not a desperado who has no choice but to find a way out in the army.

But the real situation now is that if he does not join the army, Old Man Zhao will definitely stop his supply of secret medicine, which means that his path of cultivation will be cut off.

I don’t know if I can modify it to other exercises...

Thinking of this, Xu Guang suddenly realized, yes, he can practice other techniques.

for example…

He took out the exercise method he bought a few days ago when he was black and white. Regardless of the accuracy of the content, it was extremely detailed. However, there were many blanks and secret words in it, which made the exercise impossible to practice.

If others want to practice, they can only find others to try and make mistakes and correct the mistakes.

But he is different. He has a search engine to directly search for errors and decipher the secret words...

Thinking about it, it should be feasible. After all, the searcher can detect even mysterious-sounding secrets like the Ancient Sky Eye.

The only thing that is uncertain is the disadvantages and costs of modifying other exercises.

Xu Guang stopped thinking about it, took out the secret medicine he bought from Master Zhao when he came back today, and started practicing.

It's just that the progress of the bone forging chapter is not very fast. The only way to rely on this step is to continuously exercise the movements, and use the movements to mobilize the qi and blood in the body and pour it into the bones.

There is only one word to rely on - grinding.

After all, it is different from the practice of microdermabrasion. Although microdermabrasion also relies on grinding, because of the essence and blood in his blood eyes, as long as he has the strength in his chest and is not afraid of pain, it can be considered a shortcut.

Nowadays, bone forging and blood essence are still important, but they can't advance as fast as skin grinding.

Several days passed in a flash.

Xu Guang practiced until noon. When he came out, it was already covered in silver.

Before I knew it, it was already December.

He sighed silently. Ever since his conversation with Master Zhao that day, he felt a sense of urgency in his heart. However, the search engine had not yet cooled down, and there was no way to speed up the progress of his practice.

I can only feel anxious for no reason.

Xu Guang picked up the broom and began to clean the snow in the courtyard without waiting for Xu's mother's instructions.

Creak, creak, creak~

There was a crunching sound on the snow, and someone pushed open the door. It was my brother-in-law whom I hadn't seen for a long time.

Seeing that Xu Guang was busy, Wang Ming quickly picked up a broom to help, and soon the snow was piled into a pile.

Xu Guang wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "Brother-in-law, why are you free to come here today?"

Wang Ming took the towel from Xu Guang and wiped the sweat from his neck and forehead with a happy face.

"The Huangtian Sect outside the city has made an alliance with Wei Shui from the city guard's house as evidence. From today on, the severe crackdown will end. I don't think I have to worry about war in the future."

Armistice?

A rebel force composed of refugees reached a compromise with the city guard entrusted by the imperial court?

Xu Guang was speechless and didn't know what Suiyang Prefecture City above Feiyun City was thinking. Such an outrageous thing happened.

If he were the boss of Suiyang City, he would definitely send troops to suppress him.

"That's really a good thing. The Huangtian Sect are all refugees. How could they agree not to attack Feiyun City? Could it be that they found something to eat?"

Wang Ming shook his head, "I don't know, but this matter must be true. It has spread throughout the yamen."

After he finished speaking, he hung the towel on Xu Guang's shoulders, "Hurry up and change your clothes. I'll take you to the inner city to sit for a while."

Going to the inner city again? Thinking of the last blind date, Xu Guang didn't want to go, but his brother-in-law finally invited him once, and he couldn't refute.

After tidying up, the two of them explained their whereabouts to Xu's mother and then went out.

There is still no one on the street, but the snow on the ground is full of footprints. In the days of food shortage, everyone is very cautious, and everyone may be an enemy.

This time I went to Cangmang Tower.

Seeming to see the confusion in Xu Guang's eyes, Wang Ming explained, "Cangmang Tower is the most well-informed place in the inner city. The previous blind dates were just a business for them, once a year."

Xu Guang suddenly realized.

The luxurious Xu Guang of Cangmang Tower realized it for the first time. He walked in and saw eight young girls standing at the door. They were all dressed in white dresses. It was snowing outside, but a small smooth calf was still exposed, and some were freezing. Purple, adds a touch of delicate and touching feeling.

"Don't look at these women too much. Your eldest sister won't agree." Wang Ming said in a warning tone.

Xu Guang smiled.

A girl came out of the queue. Instead of saying a few words, Wang Ming led the two of them upstairs and sat down at a window seat. There was already a sign with the word "王" written on it.

It should have been booked by Wang Ming.

The girl led the way and stood by the table, waiting for the two men's instructions.

Every table is like this, which is enough to show the luxury of Cangmanglou.

Wang Ming ordered a few dishes at random. Not long after the girl went down, a waiter came up and brought a few dishes and a bottle of wine.

"You and I haven't reached the level of practicing viscera yet, so we should drink less alcohol on weekdays."

Xu Guang also had this intention. He didn't like drinking very much. In the TV series in his previous life, many big guys were assassinated after drinking too much. Although he was not a big boss and he didn't have many enemies, but these days, who cares about you? Is it an enemy?

"Erlang, you stay in Feiyun City and don't go out. Today I'm here to give you a long experience." Wang Ming said while looking out the window, "Today, the people from the Huangtian Sect are going to sign an agreement at the City Guards Mansion and will pass by here. Didn't you ask me a lot of questions about strangers before? There aren't many things going on in the Yamen, and there are strangers among the people from the Huangtian Sect who came to the city this time."

Wang Ming said this and did not continue.

Xu Guang became interested. He was really curious about this extremely mysterious Huang Tianjiao, not only the aliens, but also the army that Wang Ming said last time was brave enough to fight against the armored soldiers.

After killing Ma Wu before, he came back from the dead and was not afraid of death, which reminded Xu Guang of what Wang Ming said before, that Huang Tianjiao also had such people.

He wanted to know if the two were the same existence.

"The Huangtian Sect has established thirty-six seats under the great Master Huangtian Zhang Qing. There are rumors that these thirty-six seats are all strangers. The ones who entered the city this time are the Jade Elephant Stand and the Diamond Stand."

"The agreement is not just a few words. There will be many details in it. Not only are we in Feiyun City anxious, but Huang Tianjiao doesn't want to continue fighting for his life. When the two great officials enter the city, they will meet the city's guardian Ming Gong."

Xu Guang listened to Wang Ming's explanation in a low voice, held the wine bottle to his lips and sipped it slightly.

This location is excellent. You can see the end of the street at a glance. People who want to come to Huangtianjiao have not yet entered the city.

While waiting, the snow fell slowly, and in just a moment, the ground was all white...
