Similar to the situation when he went up the mountain several times before, Lu Jing saw no one along the way. There were only sparrows, turtle doves and red-billed lovebirds chirping on the branches.
In addition to the most common camphor trees and osmanthus trees inside and outside Wujiang City, there are also many ginkgo and metasequoia trees on the mountain, especially ginkgo. Because the leaves are duck-foot-shaped, it is called duck-foot tree by the locals. Nowadays, the branches have begun to grow. Yellow, golden, very beautiful.
Lu Jing followed the path taken by the firewood collectors all the way to the mountainside and stopped about thirty steps away from the Bodhisattva Temple. However, he did not rush in. Instead, he picked the strongest root in front of the temple. Camphor tree.
Lu Jing then took a stance in front of the tree. Because he had not been able to sense Qi before, Zhang Sanfeng had not taught him any moves other than internal skills and mental techniques. As a result, Lu Jing's skill panel had remained empty until now. Therefore, he could only use the stupidest method to reverse the Little Vajra Energy and try to mobilize the internal power in his Dantian to his hands through the Hand Shaoyin Heart Meridian.
Then he clenched his fist and swung it out, hitting the camphor tree in front of him.
As a result, the camphor tree, which only three people could hug together, did not move at all. Only the leaves swayed symbolically, which made Lu Jing not sure whether it was caused by his own punch or whether it was windy just now.
But the good news is not without it. At least his hand was not broken by the punch just now. However, the internal force only protected his muscles and bones, but was not punched out and turned into damage as he hoped.
The place where he hit the camphor tree only lost some bark. Of course, Lu Jing's internal energy was not consumed much. The remaining internal energy seemed to have no work to do. It wandered around in the meridians outside and then retracted back. Gone in the Dantian.
Lu Jing was not too depressed. It was his first time. Failure was normal. His master had told him that people in martial arts could use their inner strength to hurt the enemy. This enemy was not limited to people, but also included objects. Just like Gang Leader Jie had done before. The footprints standing out on the bluestone of the pier.
This is what Lu Jing wants to take now, using his fists to break trees to consume the internal force in his body. The general direction should be correct, but the specific operation still needs to be worked out.
In the final analysis, he still suffered the disadvantage of not having any martial arts moves, otherwise he would not need to start from scratch in terms of exerting force and performing martial arts skills.
However, there is no point in complaining about this kind of thing now. At least until the master comes back, Lu Jing can only rely on himself.
He thought for a while, wondering if he had not chosen the right meridian. Should he try another meridian this time?
So Lu Jing took a deep breath, and invited the heavenly soldiers in his Dantian to the Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian of his hand. This time, he closed his eyes before punching, completely calming down his mind, and tried to be as quiet as possible. Things move.
When the brewing was almost done, he punched again.
But this time, as soon as his fist touched the bark of the tree, Lu Jing heard the sound of the trunk breaking.
Got it! Lu Jing felt happy, but soon realized something was wrong. The cracking sound sounded like it was coming from above his head.
Lu Jing opened his eyes and saw a figure wearing a red shirt and skirt, a sword on his waist, and a bamboo hat falling from the tree.
But just when he was about to land, a delicate foot suddenly stretched out from under the shirt and stepped lightly on the tree, slowing down the fall and avoiding the tragedy of landing with the back of his head first.
Judging from her appearance, she seemed to want to make more adjustments in the air, but for some reason she could not complete the movement. The right half of her body had already landed on the ground first, and then rolled into the grass on the side under the action of inertia.
Lu Jingguang felt pain hearing the sound.
Could it be that this unlucky guy was knocked down by the punch he just punched?
This thought only flashed through Lu Jing's mind and was dismissed by him.
Lu Jing knew that even if his internal energy could successfully leave the body, it would not be transmitted that far. Looking at the place where he hit the camphor tree, it was clear that there was still no mark.
So it was obviously just a coincidence that he hit the tree with his fist and landed with the girl on the tree.
Although it was unfortunate, the other party was clearly to blame for this traffic accident.
In addition, Lu Jing also noticed the other party's dress, as well as the life-saving kick after falling from the tree. Both of them showed that the figure lying in the grass at the moment was a martial artist.
This was also the reason why Lu Jing did not step forward rashly. Although according to his master, he was only one step away from a second-rate master based on his internal strength, but Lu Jing knew very well that he really had nothing but his internal strength. .
Now that he is very partial to science, he naturally has no plans to start his own career in the world.
In fact, Lu Jing only cares about one question right now, and that is why does the heroine in red appear here? From the looks of it, she was just passing by. Judging from the direction of travel, her destination was probably Wujiang City, but the official road was not far from here.
Unless she was in a hurry, why would she come to this uninhabited hill and fly around the treetops instead of leaving her good official duties? Isn't it fun?
Okay, Lu Jing had to admit, it was quite fun. Anyway, he was very envious when he saw it.
And as if to answer the doubts in his mind, Lu Jing heard another rush of footsteps behind him the next moment.
"This is it! I just saw her fall near here. This little girl's sword skills are very evil. Everyone, please be careful and search carefully. Don't let her escape again... Hey, why is she still here? one person?"
Lu Jing had turned around at this moment. The result was different from what he had imagined. What he saw was not a group of murderous gangsters or gangsters. In fact, these people did not even look like gangsters. , among them were a candy vendor, a flower girl carrying a flower basket, a fisherman carrying a bamboo pole, a butcher selling meat, a Taoist priest who told fortunes and an acrobat.
It looks like a folk culture exhibition, which makes it lively.
Before Lu Jing could speak, the little flower seller with a jacquard basket called him in a soft voice, "Brother, what are you doing here?"
"Fighting." Lu Jing pointed to the camphor tree behind him and said honestly.
When the little flower seller heard this, she first looked at Lu Jing, then widened her eyes at the camphor tree where a little of the bark had been knocked off, and finally burst out laughing, "Brother, it's so funny. I even fight with my enemies." , it’s better for you, you can’t get along with a tree.”
She said it more like she was happy, so she asked again without waiting for Lu Jing's answer, "Since I'm here to shoot... trees, did you just see a woman wearing a red dress and wearing a Wearing a bamboo hat, he is easy to recognize."
