Chapter 87 A rare martial arts wizard seen in a century
In the blink of an eye.
Another two or three days passed.
The weather is getting hotter day by day.
But the group of thieves on Changsheng Mountain felt like they were spending the twelfth lunar month of winter.
The moment we turn back to the mountain from Huama.
The drastic reforms began.
On weekdays, he just eats and waits for death, only smoking, drinking, gambling, and visiting brothels.
Every one counts, no matter what his background and identity are on the mountain.
Without exception.
All were driven down the mountain.
It took just a few days.
Most of the people left.
Those who can stay either have special skills, have merit, or are dedicated to doing things.
Behind the scenes, Huamaguai naturally endured countless abuses.
But he didn't care.
These people are a disaster if they stay on the mountain.
Of course, when some people leave, others stay. People like Zhang Yunqiao, who has no talent but is usually unknown because of his silence, took this opportunity to start to stand out.
At this moment.
In Changsheng Building.
Chen Yulou sat on the Grand Master's chair, flipping through the book in his hand.
This thing is called a fish scale album.
Equivalent to the census of later generations.
The identity, name, household registration and age of everyone coming and going on the mountain are simply recorded.
However, the fish scale book in his hand is obviously more detailed.
In addition to his identity, his merits and demerits over the years are also recorded one by one.
"How many people are left now?"
After flipping through it casually, Chen Yulou closed the book and raised his head and asked.
In the lobby.
Besides him, there were only a dozen figures.
There are two rudders and thirteen halls in Changsheng Mountain.
The rudder is called the leader.
Huamaguai and Miss Hong are in charge.
Not only are the two of them Chen Yulou's absolute confidants, but their status on the mountain is lower than that of one person and higher than that of ten thousand people.
As for the thirteen halls under its jurisdiction.
It also exists after Liangshan.
The more than ten people here today are the stewards of each hall.
"There are still seven thousand people on the mountain now."
The first person sitting at the bottom is Huamaguai. When the shopkeeper asked, he immediately stood up and replied.
“Seven thousand…”
Chen Yulou raised his eyebrows.
The original book says that there are tens of thousands of thieves in Changsheng Mountain, but this is not the case.
One is an exaggeration, and the other, as the leader of thieves in the world, anyone with a name in the green forest is at the disposal of Changshengshan.
Thieves and bandits from the 16 provinces in the north and south.
In total, there are more than 100,000.
But the number of people who actually stayed on the mountain was only tens of thousands at its peak over the years.
I have to say.
Hua Maguai is really ruthless.
Most of it was cut off at once.
However, he was very satisfied, which can be seen from the fish scale book.
Most of the rest are experienced Xiling bandits.
These people are the cornerstone of Changsheng Mountain.
Other people include bandits that have been recruited over the years, and more are Jianghu people who actively come to join us.
He has more or less some tricks on his hands.
It can be said that the combat power of these seven thousand people is much stronger than the tens of thousands before.
The most crucial point.
Since I was born in this troubled time.
He is very clear about the general trend.
Once involved in a mountain bandit den like Changsheng Mountain, there is basically no possibility of escape.
So...
In the past few years, Changsheng Mountain has not been in chaos.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Chen Yulou nodded.
He knew very well that whoever did this would be the target of public criticism.
But Huamaguai didn’t complain at all.
On the contrary, in just a few days, everything was arranged in an orderly manner.
"I'm going to go to southern Yunnan in a while."
"You need to worry more about things in the mountains."
Good morning for the trip to southern Yunnan. It was decided when we were at Pingshan.
Huamaguai was not surprised by this, and immediately accepted the order with clasped fists, "Don't worry, shopkeeper, the kidnapper will definitely guard his home."
But it was the first time for the thirteen heads to hear the news.
A trace of surprise flashed across his face.
They are all old men on the mountain.
Some even went up the mountain since the time of the old shopkeeper.
How many years did it take to climb step by step to where we are today.
How could they not remember that almost ten years ago, the shopkeeper once visited southern Yunnan, but a group of people returned empty-handed.
Who knows.
So long has passed.
The shopkeeper actually thought of going to southern Yunnan again.
They are all human beings.
In addition, I have seen everything that happened on the mountain in the past few days.
Who dares to get into trouble at this time?
Do you really think that when they reach the position of being in charge, they are irreplaceable?
With the shopkeeper’s character, unless it’s a fateful friendship, it’s better to give up those unrealistic thoughts as soon as possible.
Also, if it remains the same as before.
I thought about resting on my laurels for the rest of my life.
What happened today will fall on them sooner or later.
"Okay, that's it for now. In troubled times, you know what to do."
Chen Yulou waved his hand.
In an instant.
The group of people stood up with a roar, clasped their fists and bowed before retreating.
“Have a good rest these days.”
“In addition, if you have time, practice the foundation-building skills with Hong Gu. Your kid is weak and sick. Don’t talk about getting started, breathing and breathing. It’s good to take care of your body.”
Wait until everyone has dispersed.
Huamaguai and Miss Hong were the only two people left in the huge building.
Chen Yulou's tense face relaxed slightly.
Looked at the bloodshot eyes of Huamaguai.
He couldn't help but remind him.
"It's okay. We don't have to go down the mountain to fight. It's still the shopkeeper's hard work."
Huamaguai shook his head.
"Young boy is also a stubborn person."
"But this matter is not negotiable."
He understands the characters of several people very well.
Chen Yulou didn’t know him yet, so he immediately ordered.
Hearing this, Huamaguai couldn't help but flash a wry smile on his face.
He didn't dare to refuse, so he could only accept the order.
"Where's Miss Hong, how's your practice these days? Is there any progress?"
When it comes to practice, Chen Yulou naturally looked at Miss Hong.
After turning back to the mountain from Huama, she felt that a lot of the burden on her body had been lifted.
Finally I can meditate peacefully and practice Qigong.
When the shopkeeper talked about changes just now, she was thinking about foundation building skills.
“It’s not bad, I can already enter samadhi in one minute.”
I heard the shopkeeper ask.
The red girl smiled.
It feels quite a bit sultry.
"Not bad, not bad."
"It can be seen that I have really worked hard during this period."
It took only about ten days.
It has gone from half a quarter of an hour to within one minute.
This is no longer simply described by the word talent.
"Did you see, Guaizi, we are practicing together with Hong Gu."
"It will be absolutely beneficial to you and not harmful at all."
That foundation-building skill does not do much to the bones. Require.
Partridge Whistle can cultivate, Red Girl can cultivate, and he can also cultivate.
“I heard it.”
Huamaguai frowned.
What he resisted the most in the past was martial arts training.
Now the shopkeeper finally stopped persuading him to practice martial arts, and then turned to spiritual practice.
He didn't know where to pour all the bitterness in his stomach.
Chen Yulou pretended not to see it.
He gently rubbed his eyebrows.
To be honest, he is still suitable to be an idler. It is really a headache to deal with these nonsense things.
This morning on the mountain.
I was stopped on my knees by several thieves who were driving down the mountain. With tears and runny noses, she cried profusely, saying that she knew she was wrong and hoped to spare them this time for the sake of years of hard work.
They are all old people who have lived in the mountains for six or seven years.
But when he read the fish scale book.
I realized that those guys relied on their status.
Under his strict order not to smoke heavy cigarettes again, he still refused to change his prohibition. He secretly went down the mountain every two days and puffed out smoke from the pipe in the county town.
Forcibly robbed women and robbed homes.
One after another, bad things are done.
It would be better if we just go down the mountain and leave.
He didn’t know so he didn’t pursue it.
These guys still dared to bump into them. How could Chen Yulou be so lenient? He immediately asked someone to hang them up and beat them up, and finally drove them away.
Just one thing gave him such a headache.
One can imagine how difficult Huamaguai's life has been these days.
There are many people on the mountain who are more senior and have made more contributions than him.
Chen Yulou can imagine how many accusations and curses he has endured at the center of the whirlpool.
"Oh, by the way, what's going on with Luo Laowai recently?"
"That guy is not a law-abiding character. He hasn't been to Zhuangzi for half a month."< br>
Suddenly.
Chen Yulou remembered something.
Slowly opened his eyes, looked at Huamaguai and asked.
Except for the day when Luo Laowai came back from Pingshan and wanted to catch the autumn wind, he never came again.
In my impression, that guy would run to Chenjiazhuang every three days just because he was the boss.
It's so abnormal now, it just doesn't feel right.
"He?"
"I'm busy now."
Speaking of Luo Laowai, Hua Maguai couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth.
“What’s going on?”
Now even Miss Hong couldn't help but become interested and asked.
“Didn’t you click on him last time, shopkeeper, and then I frightened him again. After returning to Etou Mountain, I don’t know if my brain has opened up or what happened.”
“Not only did he restrain his men, but he also secretly sent people from the Dizi Camp to fight in the Lingling and Yuanling areas.”
Huamaguai smiled.
A brief explanation of the reason.
"When Song Laowu and Peng Laizi saw that he had no movement, they both stopped."
"Now the three of them are wary of each other and compete secretly."
Hearing this, Chen Yulou did the same. Shake his head and smile.
No wonder I haven’t seen anyone recently.
This is to send people out to steal gold and bones. They are worried that their home nest will be ruined by others, so they stay at home and dare not go out.
He said, "How could Mr. Luo be able to sit still for such a restless person?"
"Okay, let's not talk about him."
"Are you two free today? I'll take you for a walk outside?"
I'm too lazy to pay attention to Luo Laowai.
Chen Yulou glanced at the two of them and suddenly smiled.
"Does the shopkeeper want to go to the city?"
Hua Maguai has a quick mind.
But there was a bit of uncertainty in his tone.
In the past, the shopkeepers often went out.
But most of them go to the county town, and occasionally they go to the provincial capital.
But in the past six months, he no longer walked around at will, and spent most of his time in retreat.
Besides, according to what the shopkeeper said just now, it is estimated that he will have to go to southern Yunnan in a few days. It will definitely be too late for the provincial capital. It will take several days to go back and forth.
It is also closer to the county seat.
Hearing that Guaizi and herself were thinking about each other, Miss Hong didn't speak, she just waited quietly for the shopkeeper's answer.
If you go to the county seat.
She might as well just stay on the mountain and practice.
These past few days have reached the critical moment of entering concentration at thirty breaths, and she does not dare to delay even a minute.
"Which county are you going to?"
"Shijunshan!"
Chen Yulou frowned.
The so-called prosperity these days is still too depressing for him.
Let alone Xiangyin City, he couldn't even imagine what there was to see there.
“Shijunshan?”
Huamaguai and Miss Hong looked at each other.
I don’t know what medicine is sold in the shopkeeper’s gourd.
The two of them knew about that place, but it was just a deserted mountain with no people. At most, there were only mountain people living there, going to the mountain to cut firewood, or fishermen resting at the foot of the mountain.
"We'll know when we get there."
Forging the sword.
Only a few people know about it yet.
Chen Yulou received news from Li Shuguo yesterday.
It is said that the stove is almost sealed.
Invite him to attend the ceremony.
It’s just that this morning I was obsessed with things on the mountain.
Now I finally have some free time.
Of course you have to go and see it.
The Great Demon and Fierce Soldier, I dare not say that it is the first one in thousands of years. I have not heard of anyone forging it in at least a hundred years.
And if we calculate the time, it should be almost exactly right.
“Are you going?”
Chen Yulou glanced at the two of them.
“Go!”
Now it wasn't just Huama who was interested.
Even Miss Hong, who is addicted to spiritual practice, plans to go over and have a look. What is going on?
"Then there will be no delay."
"Go and see if Kunlun is free?"
After reaching an agreement.
Chen Yulou didn't hesitate anymore, put down the tea cup and walked straight out of the building.
The two girls Huama and Guihong followed closely behind.
As soon as I left the Changsheng Building, I could see a martial arts performance field outside the village from a distance. Kunlun was waving a halberd in his hand and splashing water, while Zhang Yunqiao was beside him giving instructions from time to time.
Wait until they pass through the stockade.
Kunlun also happened to put down the spurge.
Zhang Yunqiao could not hide his surprise and satisfaction on his face.
A moon stick, a sword, a gun for a lifetime.
This is an old saying left by the ancestors of martial arts.
But it doesn’t seem to work on Kunlun.
Zhang Yunqiao has practiced spear skills for more than ten years, especially the spear skills from splitting to hanging. He can be regarded as an unborn genius.
However, when compared with Kunlun, I simply feel ashamed.
It only took about ten days.
Kunlun has already mastered the Five Tigers' Door-Breaking Spear to a level that is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
At least it is worth his two years of work.
“Looks good?”
"I've seen the leader."
Zhang Yunqiao was still immersed in wonder and did not notice the three people coming.
Hear that familiar voice.
Only then did he react suddenly.
“More than good, the general leader, Kunlun is definitely the one with the most outstanding martial arts talent I have ever seen.”
"Ten years... a martial arts wizard who is rare to see in a hundred years."
"To be honest, I want to bring him back to Cangzhou and let the master teach him personally. Otherwise, my half bucket of water will be really wasted. He is so good."
Zhang Yunqiao looked serious and his expression was filled with emotion.
"Hahaha, forget it then. If he is really kidnapped, where can I find the second Kunlun?"
Seeing that he was not stingy with his words of praise.
Chen Yulou couldn't help but joked.
Although he is not good at marksmanship, he can still get a general idea.
From the beginning, I knew nothing about it, but now I have become a decent person.
At least it is already at the level of entry.
"Is it the end of the day?"
Zhang Yunqiao nodded.
"Okay, you go back and rest first. Let him come over tomorrow to learn how to shoot. Let him borrow it for today."
Hearing this, Zhang Yunqiao dared not refuse. After accepting the order, he cupped his fists and Then he stepped aside.
Because he served as Kunlun's gun and stick master.
In the past few days, the sword on the mountain not only did not fall on his head, but he also gained the position of leader.
It can be considered that after all the hardships, I have achieved something famous.
"Kunlun, let's go. You have worked hard during this period. I will take you to relax."
Chen Yulou patted him on the shoulder.
Through learning, reading, and practicing martial arts, he is completely different from what he was in the past.
The burly figure is imposing.
When he calmed down, he had a somewhat calm and calm temperament.
“Okay.”
At first glance, there are three people: the shopkeeper, Guaizi and Honggu.
Kunlun couldn't help but smile.
He was used to being tense in front of outsiders, but in front of the three of them, he seemed to be the same stupid boy who didn't understand, and immediately nodded in agreement.
"Good boy, I just finished praising you and you can't stand it anymore?"
Chen Yulou joked.
While talking.
Huamaguai has already been led to the horse.
Seeing this, the four of them didn’t waste any more time, jumped on their horses, and headed straight down the mountain towards Shijun Mountain.
