Start practicing archery

Chapter 90 Die together
Chen Sanshi drew out his sword and gently slashed it across his arm.

It stung and left a white mark, but no real damage was done.

This is still the Zhenyue Sword.

If it were an ordinary sword, it would be even more difficult to break the defense.

"It's not always this hard, it needs to be filled with blood."

Chen Sanshi kept trying.

Under normal circumstances, their skin would be tougher than that of ordinary people, but not to the point of being inhuman.

“When it is fully developed, it will be a body of diamond!”

“There’s no medicine!”

Chen Sanshi sighed.

Xiang Tingchun had already awarded him two jars of the Tiger Blood Wine that the Ministry of War had sent as a reward, but that wine was specifically for bone training. Medical books said that drinking it beforehand would be useless and harmful, so it could not be used for the time being.

"Go to the martial arts gym and borrow some!"

Centennial black ginseng.

In Poyang County, most people pick the oranges and keep them at home as treasures.

It was already night when Chen Sanshi came down the mountain.

He went straight to the Liang family mansion outside Tianyuan Martial Arts School.

Let’s start with this.

If you can't find it, go to the Pan family in Yunhe and the Zhao family in Zhao.

Tianyuan Martial Arts School and Pharmacy doesn’t do much business, but that doesn’t mean there are no treasures hidden at home.

Bypassing the two servants and disciples who were on night patrol, Chen Sanshi jumped lightly onto the roof and hopped back and forth on the rubble. Under the effect of [Light as a Swallow], he did not make any noise.

He didn't even hide his spear, he just carried it on his back.

Spears, bows and arrows, and Zhenyue swords, everything is included.

It’s not that I’m not worried about being discovered.

only……

The Liang family had better pray that no one finds him.

Otherwise, there would be another tragic case of family annihilation in Poyang County.

Not what it used to be.

When he first started learning martial arts, he had to swallow his anger when he saw people from the martial arts gym.

Nowadays, people in martial arts schools don’t need to use their hands, they can just snap their fingers and pull the bowstring to do it.

Just borrow some herbs.

I hope they don't know what's good for them.

Chen Sanshi quickly found a warehouse specifically for storing medicinal materials.

The person in charge of guarding fell asleep on the table, which saved the lives of dozens of people in the Liang family.

He climbed into the medicine storehouse through the window, picked up the sack and started stuffing it.

In a short while, it was filled up.

"There really is some black ginseng, and the quantity is quite large. It will be enough for me to use for a while."

Chen Sanshi found some exquisite boxes stored separately in the corner. After opening them, he found ginseng, Baozhi and many rare and precious medicines that could be used to dissolve various poisons.

He packed up everything, whether he needed it or not.

In the quiet Liang family mansion.

Only one study room was lit with candles.

Chen Sanshi thought about it and decided to step closer on the eaves, open a gap and look inside.

In the room, in front of the desk.

A middle-aged man with gray hair was sitting there, with books in front of him arranged in a mess. He was holding a folding fan in his hand, stroking it back and forth with a dull look in his eyes.

'Is this Liang Zhan's fan?'

"Hey, old man, you miss your son?!"

Chen Sanshi was a little hesitant about whether to send them to reunite the family.

"waste!"

Sharp curses were heard.

An equally haggard woman rushed out of the bedroom and ran straight to the study, kicking the door rudely and savagely: "Old man, what's the point of you pretending here every day? If you really love Zhan'er, why don't you go and take revenge!"

"I would like to report it!"

Liang Shengzhi gnashed his teeth and said, "But Xiang Tingchun is only a minor master of internal organ refining. How can I be his opponent? Besides, there is no evidence, so he will definitely not admit it!"

Xiang Tingchun?
Chen Sanshi was surprised.

It turns out that the captain has been taking the blame for him.

"So what!"

The woman shouted at the top of her voice: "You can ask others for help. Is Xiang Tingchun really invincible? Aren't there people who can help the county magistrate and the prefect? ​​Go and ask for help!"

“No one can help me.”

Liang Shengzhi cried, "Ji Guangxian and Xiang Tingchun are birds of a feather. How could he help me kill Xiang Tingchun? Even if I lose everything I own, I can't afford this price!"

"What about the magistrate?!"

The woman lowered her voice and said, "Hasn't the magistrate been calling you back and forth recently? Can't you ask him for help?"

"Less likely!"

Liang Shengzhi said: "I heard that the new Magistrate Xue was sent by the cabinet. He rarely accepts our gifts. He is arrogant and proud. How could he be a killer for us?
"Moreover, he has been calling us back and forth recently to interrogate us about the fairy treasure!

"If you want him to help, unless..."

He suddenly understood what the woman meant: "You are crazy. Hiding the immortal treasure is a crime that will lead to the extermination of the entire family. No, it is a crime that will lead to the extermination of all nine generations of the family... If you do this, you can avenge Zhan'er... But my Liang family's century-old foundation will also be destroyed in an instant!"

"Foundation?"

The woman laughed madly: "Liang Shengzhi, your son is dead, who are you going to give your inheritance to? And the barbarians are about to attack the city, do you think you can hide at home? Will Xiang not draft you into the army?"

Liang Shengzhi stood up hurriedly: "What are you doing?!"

The woman held the hairpin to her throat and said, "If you are such a loser, I will go find Zhan'er myself!"

"what--"

Liang Shengzhi roared and flipped the table: "You all forced me, then let's die together! Xiang Tingchun, I want to die with you!"

What a touching scene of deep love between father and son, and the old man sending off the young man!
Is it touching?
Chen Sanshi sneered.

When these beasts captured the country folks to test drugs, why didn't they think that they also had families?

Even if their entire family is killed, without sparing a single man, woman, old or young, they do not deserve the slightest sympathy. Instead, it is considered as eliminating harm to the people.

But since they put the blame on Xiang Tingchun and he was involved with the fairy treasure, they couldn't just kill him randomly, otherwise it would easily lead to complications.

"The magistrate is really here to look for the immortal treasure, and he has a refining organ with him!"

"It seems that the Liang family is going to inform the county magistrate."

"Master Xiang, I wish you good luck." Chen Sanshi did not stay any longer. He jumped up, left the Liang family residence, and disappeared into the night without a trace.

……

"You want to practice swordplay?"

Wang Zhi, who was sitting on a stone pier drinking, raised his head, somewhat puzzled by the boy's sudden request: "Are you sure?"

"determine."

Chen Sanshi nodded heavily.

He looked for Sun Li's sister and brother, but neither of them knew how to do it, so he had no choice but to ask Tang Ruoshan.

Wang Zhi recalled carefully: "I really do have it, come with me."

The first time I entered Fatty Wang’s house, it was unexpectedly simple.

The yard was unattended and there was no furniture in the rooms. Only the bedroom had a bed and a locked box.

Wang Zhi opened the box and took out a bunch of martial arts manuals. He also picked out a few sword manuals and threw them over as if they were worthless: "See which one you want to practice. I don't have anything else, but I have a lot of martial arts.

“When they packed up their bags and left, they only took away the skills above the level of refining the internal organs, and I kept all the skills below the level of refining the internal organs.

"Among these books, the best one should be Dian Cang Sword, the same one as Master."

"Commander-in-Chief Sun?"

Chen Sanshi asked, "Isn't he a spearman?"

"He also practiced swordsmanship. As far as I can remember, he practiced all sorts of random techniques before he broke through to the Martial Saint level."

Wang Zhi stroked his chin and said, "This Dian Cang Sword was the unique skill of the Cangshan Sect, one of the eight major sects in the world, more than a hundred years ago. Later, the Cangshan Sect was destroyed for treason, and the skill fell into the hands of the court. Even Master practices it, so it must be very good, but it must be difficult to learn. Aren't you worried that it will affect your spear practice?"

"Compared to this..."

Chen Sanshi expressed his confusion: "I am more curious, what benefits can I get from practicing multiple weapons?"

One of the main functions of martial arts is to enable the physical body to break through its limits.

But as the physical body's realm improves, what will it bring to practice a new weapon?
The physical body will definitely not improve significantly.

Otherwise, everyone would have known about it long ago.

"Before you transform your energy, practicing one more weapon technique will make your Qi and blood stronger. After you transform your energy, your true energy will become deeper. Apart from that, there are no other benefits."

While changing the dressing on his wound, Wang Zhi patiently explained, “So, generally, only those who are at a high level and have no hope of breaking through will collect all kinds of skills to practice in order to improve their combat effectiveness. After all, in the end, people at the same level often compete to see who can outperform in terms of true qi and blood.

“Your realm is still low, so there is little point in practicing at this time.

“Even if you master it, you can’t use the two techniques at the same time in actual combat. You only have one brain, how can you do two things at once?

"At most, it's just one long weapon and one short weapon to prevent you from being helpless when the enemy gets close to you. I think this is also your idea, right?"

"It is."

Chen Sanshi did not deny it.

I just quickly connected some information in my mind.

A person at a high level with no hope of breaking through.

This sentence also includes the former Governor Sun.

It was not until the fifteenth year of the Longqing reign that Commander Sun suddenly broke through to become the legendary Martial Saint.

Is this related to his sword practice?
Of course, this is just speculation at this point.

The so-called Martial Saint is still too far away.

Let’s try practicing sword first.

"That's it!"

Chen Sanshi accepted the "Dian Cang Sword Technique".

"what ever."

Wang Zhi added: "With a realm as a foundation, you will be able to practice other techniques faster, but how fast it can be depends on your aptitude and understanding."

"Thanks!"

Chen Sanshi didn't waste time.

He started practicing swordsmanship that day.

The Haoran breathing method is universal.

All you need to learn are standing meditation and sword techniques.

I still remember the first time I learned martial arts, it took me nearly ten days just to perform the stance exercises and moves fluently.

Now I learn sword.

It only took him half a day!

[Kung Fu: Dian Cang Sword Technique (Not yet started)]

【Progress: 0/50】

[Effect: None]

Entry-level proficiency only requires fifty?
Chen Sanshi tried to practice formally.

The result happened faster than he thought.

Basically, every time you practice a complete set of sword techniques, your proficiency will increase significantly.

At this rate.

It only takes one day.

After one day, you can master the sword technique.

"What a great sword!"

Chen Sanshi held the Zhenyue Sword in his hand, reluctant to let it go.

This kind of heirloom sword cannot be measured by money and is absolutely priceless.

"What a loser!"

"I heard that the Ninth Prince was taken directly to the capital."

This is a good thing.

If the ninth prince stayed in Poyang.

The barbarians will definitely continue to increase their troops, and more senior generals are also indispensable. Xiang Tingchun alone cannot hold on.

Now the ninth prince has been taken away.

If the Yuwen family wants someone else, they can only look for the emperor.

Of course, this does not mean that Poyang is safe. On the contrary, its life and death are still uncertain.

The Xihe tribe had at least five thousand soldiers and horses, possibly even more.

To the one thousand people in the Qianhu Suo.

Even the defenders were under considerable pressure.

The fortifications inside and outside the Great Wall began to be strengthened.

The war is about to begin.
