The longevity of the heavens begins with Mingyu Gong

Chapter 19
"Bronze ribs and iron bones, I never imagined that you, Xiao Song, have advanced to such an advanced level in martial arts!"

After getting rid of the pursuers, Hu Tianya couldn't help but marvel at Song Xing's young face next to him.

In the battle just now, he also heard what Ai Shifei said before he died. He has a complete inheritance, and he has also read the records of copper tendons and iron bones in the classics. Naturally, he knows what kind of terrifying talent Song Xing has shown.

In the land of China, with a population of hundreds of millions, it is possible to have more than a dozen extreme talents in a hundred years. To say that there is no one talent in a million is an understatement.

"It's Uncle Hu who gave me the knife manual, which is of great help to me." Song Xing still had the same calm expression as before.

Hu Tiandao shook his head: "It's your own talent plus hard work, don't put gold on Uncle Hu's face."

He knew very well that although the moves of the Hu family's saber book are exquisite and can improve martial arts in a short period of time, they will definitely not be improved to the point of brass and iron bones, otherwise he would not have practiced for many years, and his martial arts cultivation would be mediocre.

I thought that when Chu Luozhao said that Song Xing's kung fu was not weak, he was speaking modestly, but now it seems that this is still too much to say.

Hu Tianjiao didn't know that when Song Xing was in Cangwu, although his boxing skills were great, he hadn't reached his current level.

The reason why he was able to cultivate copper tendons and iron bones was entirely because he had further perfected his own martial arts principles after obtaining the Hu Family Saber Manual, and the twelve tendons that had not been broken through. Finally practiced to perfection.

So far, Song Xing has practiced the Twelve Tendon Poses of Changing Tendons, which has been practiced hard for a long time, to the point of great success after the ape strike technique.

The Twelve Poses of Changing Muscles is originally a kung fu created for the purpose of transforming the body. After the Twelve Poses are penetrated, the changes brought to the body are several times as much as before.

Almost every day, Song Xing could feel new power emerging from his body, slowly transforming the muscles, bones, flesh, and marrow of this body, making his physique stronger and stronger.

According to legend, only a very few people can reach the copper and iron bones, and it is also logically cultivated.

While chatting, the two carefully avoided the Qing soldiers patrolling the streets. In a city with a population of more than 200 million, it was very easy to find a few empty houses that were uninhabited. The two found them easily. A remote and desolate empty house, temporarily hiding.

On July 21th, Song Xing assassinated the magistrate of Cangwu County. On the [-]th, he met Hu Tianjiao. On the [-]th, he escorted Hu Tianjiao to Guangzhou Mansion. Now it is the [-]st.

As for Hu Tianjiao, he had to arrive in Hong Kong before July 24th.

"Uncle Hu, can your contact person in the Guangzhou mansion let you leave Guangzhou on time?"

Hu Tianpo nodded: "They did things very safely, but I'm not sure if they didn't get it right after all."

Song Xing looked outside and said, "Uncle Hu, you showed your face, it's not appropriate to go out again, you tell me the address of the joint, and I will run for you."

In the entire Guangzhou mansion, except for Wang Yigu, no one has seen Song Xing, so it is much safer for him to act outside than Hu Tianjiao.

Hu Tianjiao thought about the notices posted everywhere outside the city gate, and admitted that what Song Xing said was reasonable, so he told him the location of the meeting and the code words.

Song Xing instructed Hu Tianya to hide, carefully checked the door, and quickly left.

From Cangwu to Guangzhou, what Song Xing saw along the way was dilapidated scenes. The whole society was desolate and lifeless. The lives of ordinary people were very difficult.

Only in a big city like Guangzhou can we see a trace of prosperity.

Song Xing, who was walking on the street, saw itinerant vendors building stalls and setting up shelves among the gorgeous shops, and displaying their own vegetables, fruits, fish, or some very inconspicuous things, and the officers and soldiers maintaining law and order shuttled among them.

Pressing down the brim of the hat on the top of his head, carefully avoiding the pedestrians carrying burdens on the road, after a few twists and turns, he detoured into a narrow alley paved with green bricks.

The alley should be dedicated to literati business. Most of the shops on both sides sell paper, ink, pens and inkstone supplies. Song walked in and found a bookstore named Wenyanzhai according to the house number.

Walking into the bookstore, Song Xing was a little surprised that the size of the bookstore is not small. The shops next to it have been opened up and connected together. There are seven or eight bookshelves in the store, which are full of books. On the wall behind the bookshelves , with a single line of characters written on it, which was sold by Fatigu inkstone in Jingshiziji.

As soon as you enter the door, there is a square table filled with all kinds of books. On the right hand side of the door, there is a counter. The boss wearing a long gown is sitting in the middle, and a Confucian scholar who is also wearing a long gown is sitting in the middle. Checked out there with two books.

After Song Xing waited for the Confucian scholars to leave, he came to the counter. The boss, who seemed to be about 40 years old, smiled and asked, "What do customers need?"

Song Xing asked: "Boss, do you have the Yangzhou Painting Boat Record published by Jiangnan Book Company?"

The boss raised his head and glanced at Song Xing, and replied calmly: "Guest, it's unfortunate that the Yangzhou Painting Boat Record was sold out a few days ago, and I haven't had time to buy it yet, but the small store has a booklet of Yangzhou scenery published by Chongming Bookstore. Would you like to take a look?"

Song Xing shook his head, and said: "There is already a collection in Yangzhou's collection of cultural relics, so give me a copy of Chunxi Liyun."

The boss got up and walked out of the counter, and said: "The shop just accepted a replica copy a few days ago, please come with me."

The two came to a bookshelf in the inner room. The boss took out a copy of Chunxi Liyun from the corner and handed it to Song Xing. At the same time, he secretly stuffed two tickets into Song Xing's hands, and whispered: "Tomorrow night And the boat ticket for the day after tomorrow, leaving Yongqing Gate, and leaving Guangzhou on a foreigner’s freighter, the Qing court dared not search.”

Song Xing nodded incredulously, and then said, "Great, I've been looking for this edition for a long time."

The boss said with a smile: "It's as long as the guests like it."

Song Xing took out a piece of silver from his pocket, settled the book fee, and left the bookstore without looking back.

Putting the book in his arms, Song Xing was not in a hurry to go back, but started to wander on the street, like a bumpkin who had just entered the city, everything he saw was very fresh, he wandered until dusk, and finally stopped at a restaurant on the way I bought some food and went back to the dilapidated house in the dark.

Hu Tianjiao, who was hiding in the dark, saw Song Xing appear, got out from the hiding place, and asked, "How is it, have you connected?"

Song Xing nodded, put down the food in his hand, took out the Chunxi Liyun from his arms, and handed the two tickets inside to Hu Tianpoo, "The tickets for tomorrow night and the day after tomorrow, Yongqing Gate, Go to Hong Kong on a foreign freighter."

"I've found out the location of the freighter. It's a night full of dreams. Uncle Hu, you will leave by boat tomorrow night."

When investigating the situation during the day, Song Xing had already encountered several groups of Qing soldiers searching from house to house, but fortunately Song Xing did not show his face, and escaped without any risk.

The gates leading to the port in Guangzhou Mansion were all guarded by heavy soldiers, and the port was patrolled by Qing soldiers around the clock.

"It seems that the Ministry of Internal Affairs is determined that we will leave by boat, so they simply guard the port and wait for the rabbit."

A trace of worry flashed in Hu Tianjiao's eyes. Although he successfully broke into Guangzhou Mansion and got the boat ticket, how to get on the boat was a difficult problem at the last hurdle.

In order not to let him leave, Wei Enming would definitely send heavy troops to guard him. It would be as difficult as going to heaven to quietly board the boat without disturbing them.

Song Xing, however, was confident, took out a bought map of Guangzhou, spread it out in front of Hu Tianjiao under the moonlight, pointed to the map and said: "The distance from the east, west and north gates to the port is too far, and the risk of exposure is too great. So we can only go from the south, Anlan Gate, Yongqing Gate, Jinghai Gate, and Wuxian Gate are the gates closest to the port."

"They are probably worried about attracting dissatisfaction from foreigners, so they sent the least troops at Yongqing Gate. The cargo ship of foreigners will set off at Xushi tomorrow night. At the moment before departure, I will protect Uncle Hu and you to pass through the barrier. As long as you go Once you get on the boat, everything will be fine.”

Hu Tianjiao stared at the map for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, as long as the Yongqing Gate starts fighting, the reinforcements from the other sects will arrive in no time. Even if I get on the boat, what will you do?"

In the original plan, only Hu Tianjiao went to Hong Kong, and Song Xing did not go to Hong Kong, but now according to Song Xing's plan, after Hu Tianya boarded the ship, the danger was left to Song Xing who was under the boat. This is Hu Tian Pouring unacceptable.

Song Xing raised his hand to stop Hu Tianjiao from speaking, and his smile in the dark was extraordinarily bright: "Uncle Hu, didn't we agree at the beginning that I would escort you out of Guangzhou safely? Don't forget the burden behind you, so many The sacrifices made by people, now, there is no room for you to retreat."

Over the past century, our nation has suffered so much and sacrificed so much, which is rare in the world.

We have experienced too much suffering, and thousands of people are striving for their ideals, trying to find a ray of light in the desperate darkness.

Song Xing said with a smile: "Uncle Hu, when you gave me the Hu family knife book that day, I didn't refuse. Don't act like a child. Tomorrow, I will guard the Yongqing Gate for you, Uncle Hu, until you leave safely."

Seeing that Hu Tianyao was still frowning, Song Xing could only comfort him: "When the boat sails, with my skills, if I want to leave, they can't stop me."

The martial arts cultivation that Song Xing showed gave Hu Tianjiao a glimmer of hope. Although stopping all the masters of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is a mission of a narrow escape, Hu Tianjiao at this moment can only bear Song Xing's pressure silently. kindness.
