Advance the future and become a martial saint on earth!

Chapter 128 If one day, I can stand firm with a title, I will be called the Tiandao lineage, and be named "Zhenzong"!

Boom, crack!
The stall pier is hazy and misty!
Tied up with iron chains, standing on both sides of the huge flagpoles supporting the sky, they were shot down by two arrows.

It is called the "Chen Family Fisherman" Grand Festival Fishing Flag, which is written with the Taoist method of drawing talismans.
Suddenly, it collapsed with a loud bang, hitting the solid lacquered wooden pier and shaking it three times!
The huge commotion startled the people in the surrounding area who were unloading and transporting the goods.

"What the hell is this!"

It was still dark and many people were still asleep. The violent shaking startled everyone.

When they saw clearly what was collapsing.
It was as if he had seen a ghost, and even his mouth was trembling:

"The flag of the Yuyuhang Grand Sacrifice!"

"Who is so bold as to shoot down the Chen family's facade?!"

Fishing business, Chen family!
It was a big bank that had stood in Jiangyin Prefecture for nearly a hundred years. It was one of the "Upper Nine Banks" and had eight ferry crossings, dozens of fishing pens, and employed hundreds of boat captains!

As the saying goes:

The palace belongs to the officials.

The roundabout is the dojo of the school master.

And there are eight ferry crossings in the east, west, south and north.
The Chen family is the one that controls everything!
Even the 'dock guard' that was merged into the Chen family had to be carefully selected, and only those who were at least good at the second level of refining would have a chance.

Those youngsters who have a bit of luck, have been taught a few moves by a martial arts master, and have gained strength and muscle training, are not qualified for this!
As the saying goes, every industry has its own rules.

This is the big flag of the fishing business. No matter the leader, the fisherman, or the boat boss,
As long as you go out to sea, you must first worship and offer sacrifices to ensure protection for your fishing trip, so that you can have good weather and good harvests when you go out to sea!

It is said that the big words "Fishing Chen Family" written on it were written by Master Chen, one of the "Nine Masters", who invited a "talisman master" who was an expert in Taoism to write it himself.

It has the nature of Taoism, which makes people look up and feel reverence. It represents the face of the fishing industry!
Since its establishment, there have been indeed no troubles for sixty years, and the fishing business has been as stable as Mount Tai.

But today, I was suddenly shot like this.
If the boss of the fishing company knew about this, he would definitely catch this daring thief, skin him alive, and sacrifice him to the dragon, letting his blood spill all over the East Cang Sea! ?

"what happened!"

Whoosh!
A middle-aged man with eyes radiating a bright and divine aura and a surging aura around his body, walking like a dragon and a tiger, with cold wind swirling around him, making his face light and dark.

This man's name was Gu Qi. He was initially a casual worshipper recruited by a fishing company. Later, he built a lower Qi Sea and was promoted to a "big boss". He then became the leader of a ferry and was quite powerful.

A group of twenty or thirty guards, armed with weapons and wearing uniform "fishermen's clothing", followed the ferry leader Gu Qi to the dock and looked at the two collapsed sacrificial flags.
I couldn't help but take a breath:

"It is said that you should not hit someone in the face, and you should not expose someone's shortcomings when you scold him. Where did this fierce dragon come from? He does not know the rules and just..."

He looked towards the Canglang River where day and night alternated.

I saw a black spot getting closer and bigger, even splitting the water in two, causing hundreds of boats to scramble to avoid it.
The more he looked, the bigger the middle-aged man's pupils became:
"and many more."

"Isn't this the dragon that Chen Xingzhu worships every day? Wasn't it said that it was invited to deal with Duan Wufu who showed up in Anning County? How come it came so quickly?"

"Wait, that's not right."

When he saw the figures standing on the dragon's head, one holding a knife, the other drawing a bow, the latter even put down the bow and looked up, it turned out to be the mastermind who shot down the flagpole.
Shocked expression:

"That warrior in purple clothes with a broken arm is... Duan Chenzhou!?"

"The archer next to him looks so young, is he his apprentice?"

"What a great arm strength. He was able to break the sacrificial flag with the Taoist art attached to it from such a long distance and in such a strong wind and waves. He must be an expert in the third level of muscle, bone and skin training at least."

Gu Qi had long ago learned from the news sent back to Jiangyin Prefecture from An Ning that this young sword master in the prefecture had already achieved a superior Qi sea and had accepted a disciple.

But according to the owner of the fishing company, he and several other companies have set up a killing spree that will result in 100% death and no chance of survival, leaving this beast with no chance of coming back.

Can.
This seems to be different from what those big masters planned!

Especially, when Gu Qi saw the figure of Duan Chenzhou tied to the back of the dragon, his throat rolled several times, and he suddenly felt extremely difficult:
"The third master of the fishing business, Chen Chuhe, and the eighth eldest son in the business, Chen Chuan."

"Xu Mao, the master of Chaihang, heard that Master Xu Nan had mastered the fundamentals of Taoism and was only one step away from condensing his 'spiritual thoughts'."

"There are also the Zixia Dojo, the Shuihuo Dojo, and the concubine of the medicine store whose grandson just died. The most promising one now is the illegitimate son Huang Chan, who has become a 'centurion general' in the garrison."

"It seems that this group of people has suffered a big setback. How come even the dragon that the leader worships every day has defected?"

"Duan Wufu, what are you doing?"

"He thinks that just because he has become a big shot, he can break into the mansion. Isn't he afraid of getting into trouble?"

As long as you can hang out in the city.

Which of these names have you not heard of?

Not to mention that Mr. Chen Chuhe, the Third Master Chen, is from the same clan as 'Master Chen' and they were his brothers who worked together to build the fishing business!
Now, they were all stepped under Duan Chenzhou's feet!

Seeing the airway people showing their heads on the dock, Ji Xiu couldn't help but smack his lips:
"Master, are there only so many people in Jiangyin Prefecture?"

“You can show your head at any stall”

Duan Chenzhou's sleeves fluttered as he looked at Gu Qi on the dock and said nonchalantly:
"The Qi Sea Realm is a realm that one can naturally advance to after one's tendons, bones, and skin have been polished to perfection and one has the 'Qi Scroll'."

"All it takes is a bit of talent, hard work, and most importantly, the inherited Qi scroll, and you can do it."

"This level is not difficult. The difficult part is how to achieve the highest level of Qi, how to break the three limits, and how to go further after that."

"There aren't many people from Jiangyin Prefecture, but there aren't many either."

"For example, this fishing business known as 'Shangjiuhang'"

"At the eight-level ferry crossings, the four ferry crossings in the east, south, west and north are all manned by 'Qi training masters'. The situations at the other ferry crossings are similar."

“But although they are both Qi Sea, the difference is worlds apart.”

Duan Chenzhou raised his eyes and looked at Gu Qi from afar:
"How can a body that has broken through the first and second limits be compared with you who has practiced the top secret sect method, blasted through the third limit, condensed the treasure body and achieved the first level of Qi Dao?"

"I have heard from your master that those young prodigies in Tianzhu, Jushi, and Xuanjing can break through the three limits and condense a precious body, so they can cross the border without any injury and kill the 'big guys'."

"If he becomes a master, even three or five Qi Dao warriors will find it difficult to compete with him!"

“What you want to emulate and achieve is people like that, not people who do things shoddily and disregard their own future.”

"Well, just like these trash."

He stepped on Chen Chuhe, whose eyes were spitting sparks, and the people from Chaihang and Erdaoguan. He took a deep breath, his eyes were fierce, and he shouted in the air, his aura running wild, like thunder:
"They want to kill me to avenge their past grudges. This is the reason."

"But they were not as skilled as others, so they were defeated by me and captured by me. This was their fate."

"All the businesses and institutions can come to me, so why shouldn't I come?"

"The prefecture is not like the remote countryside in the county. Every household and every business has a communication talisman, so."

"Duan will give you half an hour."

"If there is no earthly treasure, send it to the pier"

"These four heads, as well as these eldest sons, will be shed in blood in the East Canghai today!"

puff!

Duan Chenzhou closed his palm, seeming to cut off the airflow. The sound was loud and clear, covering the whole area and falling into Gu Qi's ears.
This made the leader who was guarding the ferry tremble in his heart.

If it were someone else, perhaps the truth of the words could be discussed and bargained over a bit more.

But Gu Qi knew that Duan Chenzhou, this young and inexperienced
It really is what you say!

So, without saying a word, with a heavy heart, he hurriedly went to communicate with various banks and halls with talismans.
Ji Xiu finished listening to Duan Chenzhou's words.

Looking at the tied-up Chen Chuhe and other masters of the big banks, as well as Huang Chan, Chen Chuan and other disciples of the various industries, he could not help but feel a little sorry:

"Master, so many heads were exchanged for only one 'Earth Treasure'?"

“Isn’t that a bit too little?”

Hearing the apprentice's greedy words.

Duan Chenzhou couldn't help but roll his eyes and kicked the third master of the fishing company with his toes:

"Do you think Dibao is cabbage?"

"For just this one plant, these three banks and two museums may not give it to you."

"A complete earth treasure can be subtly transformed, and branches and leaves can be continuously picked to refine spiritual elixirs and precious medicines. It is a true heirloom!"

"The dojo is backed by the school, and the good stuff is all inside the mountain gate. The dojo in the mansion can't produce such stuff."

"Only these few big banks might be able to bear the pain and take out one."

"You are a real 'gold-spending den'. Otherwise, if it were any other time, I would have killed these guys long ago. There would be no need to go through so much trouble."

hiss!
Hearing this, Ji Xiu remembered the 'Jade Marrow Cold Lotus' that he had given to Old Man Huang before, and sighed with his hands behind his back.

I am really a kind and righteous person, and I can be called a man of my word, right?
According to this pattern of one bank per museum, there are not many rare treasures to be seen.
Such a good thing might be worth more than a thousand taels of gold!
However, before the New Year during the "Zhonghuang Disaster", Old Man Huang brought Zheng Jun and followed Xu Li onto a merchant ship bound for "Fucheng".

Right now, he should be in Jiangyin Prefecture.

I don't know what will happen after this period is over.
Could he have heard about the story of how his master and his disciple rode on dragons to knock on the government door and make all the businesses and institutions bow their heads?

The sea breeze is cool.

Ji Xiu galloped all night, looking at the brightly lit city on the sea.
I pondered secretly in my heart.

In Jiangyin Prefecture.

The marquis's mansion with the words "Beicang" hanging on it is located in the inner city. The sentries are extremely strict and any disturbance, even the slightest, can be transmitted to it.

If the outside world cannot communicate with each other,
Not even a mosquito can fly in.

because.

This is the only residence of a local marquis in the entire Jiangyin Prefecture.

It can be said that even the Lord of the Palace, the Head of the Court, and the General of the Garrison!
The big men who are in charge of the government, education and military of the three parties are all here, and they have to bow their heads when they see the "Marquis of Beicang".

Deep inside the Marquis's mansion, in the Shuyu Pavilion, this courtyard is built entirely of cold stone walls.

There is a cold and deep pool, in which there are extremely cold silver fins of ice souls, and there are dots of frost on the scales;

This spiritual fish alone, if sold in the city, would be worth at least tens of gold coins, and could be used to make spiritual elixirs as medicine. It is extremely precious and tastes excellent. If used as a dish, it would be listed as one of the "Eight Wonders of Jianghuai".

But in this Shuyu Pavilion, the entire cold pool is covered.

By the pool.

The wheelchair rolled over the narrow path paved with black crystal stones, and the ice soul beads on Xiao Mingli's wrist were making a tiny sound.

She lowered her eyes and untied the sash around her waist. When the hem of her gauze skirt fell, she revealed a pair of extremely cold, lifeless long legs covered with hideous scars.

One side.

The waitress named Li Xuanyi, holding a medicine called 'Cold Marrow Jade Paste', which is a fifth-grade spiritual medicine for the Qi channel made from the earthly treasure 'Jade Marrow Cold Lotus', helped Xiao Mingli apply it on her legs with great concern:
"If there hadn't been that disaster back then."

"With your precious body and your twenty-year Qi cultivation accomplishment, you may have been nominated in the Fenghua Building of Cangdu, or even ranked on the Young Dragon Monument, not inferior to the old marquis."

"Why?"

In response to this, Xiao Mingli smiled with her amber eyes:
"It's good to be alive."

"What's the point of asking so much, especially."

"It's not like there's no hope."

Hearing the words of this woman who was the only heir to the Marquisate's lineage, Li Xuanyi immediately became indignant:
"I get angry when you talk about this!"

"Who are you? The descendant of the Zhenzong, the daughter of the Marquis!"

"Han Ying, who stole the 'Search the Mountains and Chase the Seas' talisman from the county, and his apprentice have asked Qin Gaogong to perform his Taoist magic and find out the reason."

"That magical power was given to a poor boy from a county by them and passed on to him!"

"As a result, that kid used the earth treasure 'Jade Marrow Cold Lotus' that he obtained through his magical powers to present it to the Marquis' Mansion, and asked the medicine store's great alchemist Xu Li to do us a favor. He basically got it for free."

"This is simply inhumane, Senior Sister!"

"That's the result. You even told the old man surnamed Huang that if the kid named Ji Xiu entered the mansion in the future, he would be given a chance to succeed."

"The more I think about it, the angrier I get!"

"That talisman is a treasure that Luo Daocheng obtained with great difficulty at the behest of the Marquis. It is for you to find your destined person, explore the East Canghai, find cold spiritual materials and earth treasures to prolong your life, and find heavenly materials to restore your foundation!"

“That’s the result.”

Xiao Mingli listened to the chattering in his ear and looked at the silver fins in the pool. The smile between his brows faded a little:
"okay."

"You think I don't understand what you said?"

She turned to look at her junior sister who had come down the mountain. She was as calm as a clear spring, and her face was as white as a porcelain doll:
"But it's not so easy to find the right person for the talisman of the 'supernatural power' of the outsiders."

"Luo Daocheng asked so many people to try, but none of them responded. No one was qualified to take on the opportunity? In the end, it was stolen by his disciple."

"Even if the talisman comes back, and I, Xiao Mingli, hold a 'Hairpin Flower Banquet' in Jiangyin Prefecture, will there be a destined person among those so-called talented people in the prefecture?"

"Even if it's 'Cangdu', you may not be able to see it."

Xiao Mingli shook his head:

"The art has no master, it is acquired by fate."

She sat in a wheelchair, unfolded a scroll, looked at the picture of a handsome young man in black clothes with bright eyes, and then read the introduction.
"Instead of that, it's better to invest and bet."

"The whole story of Huang Xuan's offering of the Jade Marrow Cold Lotus has been found out."

"This has already proven what this young man's character is like."

"In that case, why not."

She hadn't finished her words.

Then an attendant from the Marquis's Mansion came forward to report:

"Ms. Hou, the young man you are concerned about"

"He entered the palace on a dragon."

Xiao Mingli paused, looking surprised:

"Aren't you planning to come to Jiangyin Prefecture yet?"

"I haven't even sent my mother-in-law to Anning County yet."

The attendant heard this with a complicated look in his eyes:
"He came to Jiangyin Prefecture to collect a debt."

Debt collection?
Let’s take a look at the whole story of the origins and development of the talismans.

Xiao Mingli raised his eyebrows and suddenly smiled for no reason:
"This temperament."

"It really looks like my father back then."

"It's rare for someone from a county to have such courage and character. No wonder Bai Shuo from 'Shuijun Mansion' favors him."

"Perhaps even if there is no cause and effect of 'searching the mountains and chasing the sea'."

"If I see such young people, I will also help them."

Jiangyin Ferry, on the pier!
Half an hour later.

A dragon stands proudly in the ocean.

All the people who watched were trembling with fear.
Just as time was passing by.

At the end——

The leader of the ferry of the fishing company, Gu Qi, held a box with a gloomy face and handed it to Master Duan Chenzhou and his apprentice:
"The heads of the three branches and two halls are not in the mansion, but several branches of the family got together to have a chat, and then sent this local treasure, 'Thunderstruck Robbery Wood', to Master Duan."

Looking at the rich treasure aura emanating from the box.
Duan Chenzhou raised his eyebrows:
"Those people are so busy, how can they leave Jiangyin Prefecture?"

"But this 'Earth Treasure' was sent in a clever way. It has no branches or spiritual leaves. It is inexhaustible and can only be used once as medicine."

"No wonder you're willing to exchange for these pieces of trash."

He opened the box and looked at the small piece of 'Lightning Struck Wood' that had been struck by lightning and transformed into a spiritual material from the mountains and fields, with vigorous and immortal vitality, and he couldn't help but smile.

Upon hearing this, Gu Qi's mouth twitched:

"Then don't bother with that."

"It's just that I'm a foreigner and I'm asking one more question."

"Master Duan, by doing this, aren't you afraid that the various dojos will ask the schools to leave and embarrass the 'Heavenly Sword School' again?"

In response to this, Duan Chenzhou shook his head, with disdain in the corners of his eyes:

“I said it more than ten years ago.”

"The sect master, Chen He, compromised and distributed the family business left by the old man as much as possible, and even returned the 'Dojo plaque' that Duan had personally carved."

"I have already betrayed my master."

“I’m back this time.”

"There is one more thing. Except for me, Duan Chenzhou, who is not on the list of the Heavenly Sword School, from now on, I will be without a family or clan!"

"If it is a big school in Jiangyin Prefecture, it would only have this much tolerance."

"If you become impoverished in the future, I'm afraid you will have to 'repeat the same mistakes' sooner or later."

A cold wind blew across the sea.

Duan Chenzhou kicked all these young masters off the dragon's body one by one, and threw the box to Ji Xiu on the side.

Looking at Duan Chenzhou's flying black hair, with only one arm, he seemed to be able to support the towering body of Haishan. However, he revealed a sense of loneliness and desolation.

Ji Xiu pursed his lips.

At this moment.

He finally understood why his master said that he had a bad relationship with the Tiandao School.

If he was not a disciple of Tiandao School.

Then all the hatreds can be borne by one person.

But if they are tied together, they will prosper together and suffer together.
Perhaps, the 'Uncle Master' whom he had never met, and the 'Grandmaster' of this lineage, were even more sad.

I thought of the master uncle that Qin Zhuo described.

There is also Master Duan who has such a handsome appearance.
Regarding the ancestor 'Wang Xuanyang'.

Holding the lightning-struck wood that could shed its "jade skin" in his hand, Ji Xiu could not help but be fascinated:

"The master who could teach such a disciple must have opened up the human body's hidden 'six limits'"

"What kind of grace should it be?"

"I really want to meet him."

Simultaneously.

Ji Xiu also had an idea.

If you can do it yourself
It is necessary to revive this 'three generations of master and apprentice' school!

Even, he was promoted to "Zhenzong"!
