After asking his master for advice on some cultivation issues, Zhao Chen left the main hall and practiced basic swordsmanship on his own in the white sand-covered martial arts field for a whole morning before returning to his small courtyard.
Speaking of which, Zhao Chen is currently able to achieve a "spiritual sense" that reflects the entire body, and his true energy penetrates the twelve main meridians. His speed, strength, and reaction are far beyond those of normal people. Even if he has not practiced swordsmanship, he can defeat ordinary warriors. If you can win without any moves, you can use them to achieve the effect of "Dugu Nine Swords".
But that was just bullying the body-forging warrior, and if the attack from a foot away was fast enough, he might not be able to react in time - such as a firearm.
Therefore, it was Zhao Chen's agenda to initially master a Zhenqi realm martial arts and further enhance his self-protection ability... After all, Wang Daozhi couldn't just come to the rescue when something happened.
Although according to Yan Hongxia, the first choice martial art in the Zhenqi realm is "gun fighting", the master and senior brother have been very busy recently due to the relocation of the martial arts school, and they may not have time to teach him before settling down... So he Then he set his sights on the only true qi martial arts "Taiyi Xuanmen Sword" in "The Secret Records of the Twelve Gates of Jinlou and Jade Room".
Moreover, "Taiyi Xuanmen Sword" is not a single sword technique. It is also an auxiliary practice to enhance the control of the "Five Immortals Zhongling Zhenqi". It can reconcile the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit, practice it to great perfection, and even achieve perfection. A "three-in-one sword energy" killed the armored warrior five or six feet away from the air.
However, if you want to practice this "Taiyi Xuanmen Sword", you must first practice basic swordsmanship. After all, superior swordsmanship is broken down, and each move is also a basic sword style. Only by laying a solid foundation first can subsequent practice be successful. Get twice the result with half the effort.
Fortunately, Zhao Chen's soul power is relatively strong and he has great control over his body. It only took him a morning to fully understand the basic swordsmanship movements that took others several months to master, and made corresponding adjustments according to himself. .
It's quite a bit like Zhang Wuji, who has mastered the "Nine Yang Magic" in Jin Yong's novels. He can learn all kinds of martial arts quickly.
But Zhao Chen knew that this was just his illusion. After all, he was practicing the basic skills passed down by Taojun Taichu. It would certainly seem faster for a "cultivator" to learn ordinary martial arts.
Ordinary monks will not have their souls become so powerful that their "spiritual sense" will almost transform into "spiritual consciousness" as soon as they have cultivated "Zhen Qi". Not to mention reflecting the entire body, Senior Brother Feng can barely even "see within" That's the norm.
In short, after practicing the sword, Zhao Chen went back to his house, took a shower, changed his clothes, and then went out again to a nearby restaurant, where senior brother Chen Xu was already waiting outside a private room.
Next, while eating and drinking, Zhao Chen explained in detail his various insights on "entering tranquility", and recommended to him the "soothing incense" made by the master without any trace.
This thing can indeed assist the monks to hold the Yuanshou Yi. For someone like Senior Brother Chen who has been practicing martial arts for more than ten years and may just miss the mark, there is still a chance that he can use this to "enter tranquility".
Senior Brother Chen was very yearning when he heard it, and his eyes brightened even more when he learned about the effect of "Soothing Incense". However, when he heard the price of 800 cents per column, he fell silent again.
It's not that he can't even produce 800 coins, but he also knows that a few sticks of incense are unlikely to allow him to successfully "enter tranquility". I'm afraid he will have to try again and again.
And this may be a bottomless pit...
Seeing that the atmosphere was in place, Zhao Chen immediately said that he could provide the other party with a large amount of "soothing incense", but accordingly, Senior Brother Chen needed to be his eyeliner and help him pay attention to unusual things that might happen in Bingquan Town in the future.
As for where did Zhao Chen get so many "soothing incense"? Naturally, I bought the goods from the master and recorded them in the original owner's father's account.
For such "reasonable" cultivation supplies, naturally you only need to brush your face.
Since Zhao Chen's request was not troublesome and there was no danger on the surface, Chen Xu could not withstand the "temptation" and was successfully "bribed".
"After I collect the information, what should I tell you?" Chen Xu finally asked.
Zhao Chen thought for a moment and then replied: "I will send someone back to pick it up regularly. You can just hand it over to the other party when the time comes."
Having said that, Zhao Chen actually had no intention of cheating on others...
Anyway, it's more than 400 miles from Yumen to Bingquan Town. With the speed of his "magic spell", he can make the round trip in one day.
When the time comes, just disguise your identity and come to see Senior Brother Chen.
After they had had enough wine and food, and Senior Brother Chen left with satisfaction holding the "Anshen Incense" in his arms, Zhao Chen frowned and thought to himself:
"After completing this transaction with Senior Brother Chen Xu just now, it seems that the efficiency of the Qi has increased a little... Is it an illusion?"
…
Turn around and guard the mansion.
Guard Li Hu personally held a banquet in honor of Hall Master Huang Xianjun. All prominent figures from Bingquan Town, Chijin Town, and Jinwan Township came, including the new acting head catcher who was quickly promoted.
Only the leader of the Sand Snake Gang, Ye Liwang, was missing. Jia Zhengming, the "gunsman in yellow" who had defeated Master Huang, attended the banquet on his behalf.
But others didn't suspect anything. After all, Ye Liwang and Huang Xianjun had a grudge. The latter was forced to leave the Chijin area this time by the other party. It would be difficult to handle him when he came.
However, Zhao Chen, who was toasting behind the master, overheard someone saying that Ye Liwang was not in the town at the moment and seemed to be out on business.
After crossing the table belonging to the Sand Snake Gang, Zhao Chen followed Huang Xianjun and Senior Brother Feng to the Zhao family table... After a few days, he also met the original owner's parents again.
Stepmother Li Xiuling is wearing a thousand-petal chrysanthemum patterned dress and a moon-white pleated Ruyi moon skirt today. She wears a golden fork on her head. Dozens of golden filaments hang down from the golden fork, adding a bit of mature temperament, but as long as she touches her face She still looks like a girl.
Sitting next to Zhao Song, they don't look like a couple, but like a father and daughter... Although they are about the same age.
After the toast, Zhao Chen did not continue to follow the master, but stayed at the table of the original owner's parents, and he also met the original owner's sister and brother "for the first time".
Because his younger brother, Zhao Mian, was only a few months old, he was only held by the nanny and allowed Zhao Chen to take a look at him before he was sent to the back hall where Li Xiuling's own mother was looking after him.
The younger sister, Zhao Xi, was over three years old and looked pretty. At this time, she saluted Zhao Chen like a young adult:
"I've met my second brother."
Zhao Chen touched her head and asked with a smile, "Has Xi'er been obedient lately?"
Zhao Xi raised his head and said in a sweet voice: "Of course Xi'er is obedient... I just haven't seen my father and second brother for a long time, and I miss them very much."
Hearing this, Zhao Chen was slightly startled and looked at Zhao Song strangely.
My sister can't see her normal, but she can't see Zhao Song...
In the memory of the original owner, his father was extremely fond of his daughter and would personally put her to sleep every day.
