Chapter 56 I Want to Be a Weapon Master

The pitch-black night enveloped the entire Heishan County like a giant beast, and the howling night wind was its roar.

Zhong Lin quickly shuttled through the darkness, made a circle, and headed straight for Huaihua Lane.

After getting the complete "Chiyang Zhuang Gong", Zhong Lin left directly. As for whether Du Chong was alive or dead, or the fate of the Du family, he was too lazy to care.

It's none of your business, just hang it up high.

I have achieved what I wanted tonight, and it's time to go home and rest.

He returned to the yard, lifted the boulder, and led everyone out of the cellar.

"Zhong Lin, has the rebel army broken into the city?" Old Man Xu asked nervously.

"Not yet, but I think it will be soon. There must be a master among the chaotic army!"

Zhong Lin sighed.

Not to mention anything else, just this trick of "throwing bones" has caused heavy losses to the Du and Zhang families. I don't know if there are any other means behind it.

"then you……"

Old man Xu asked Zhong Lin another implicit question.

Zhong Lin also knew what Old Man Xu was thinking. He was mainly afraid that the two little guys would hear it and let the cat out of the bag outside.

Zhong Lin raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Everything went well."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Old Man Xu also breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, the east was already getting light, and the two little guys had not slept enough, so they climbed into bed and continued to sleep.

Old Mr. and Mrs. Xu were already tired of sleep and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

Zhong Lin returned to his study and placed all his gains on the table.

In addition to some gold, silver and jewelry, the most important things are the four secret books and the dagger.

Zhong Lin took the "Chiyang Zhuang Gong" in his hand and flipped through it quickly with the help of the oil lamp, reading ten lines at a glance.

"Although the process was a bit tortuous, fortunately I finally got the blood coagulation technique. As long as it is included in the panel, the door to the sixth level of Qi and Blood Realm will be open to me."

"Sixth rank is already in the middle third rank realm. It is considered a master in the entire Heishan County. There are very few of them. When the time comes, I will no longer be afraid of others."

"These three martial arts, one Qi and blood martial arts, one footwork, and one hidden weapon, are just enough to fill my own bag of tricks. I'll figure out how to collect some other martial arts later. With the system panel, I don't have to worry about biting off more than I can chew. Then I'll become a weapons master."

"The only problem now is the rebellion outside. I wonder how long this riot can last? Can Heishan County hold out until reinforcements arrive?"

"Forget it. There's no use thinking too much about this kind of thing. What I need to do now is to learn the Chiyang Posture as quickly as possible."

He carefully put the basic secret book into the secret compartment of the room, reached out and took the black dagger in his hand. With a slight tremor of his wrist, the dagger disappeared, as if it had never appeared.

This is the subtlety of the instant kill technique. It is usually hidden and invisible to everyone, but it strikes in an instant, making it impossible to defend against it.

As the sun rose, the shouting and screaming outside the city gate gradually disappeared.

Zhong Lin called Xiao Shitou and Xiu Ge'er to have breakfast, then told them not to run around and left home.

Zhong Lin wanted to go outside and find out what the situation was.

Zhong Lin did not go to the county government office, but went directly to Lao Zhou's house.

He had been to Lao Zhou's house for a drink and knew the location.

Boom boom boom!
"Who is it?" A vigilant female voice came from the yard.

"Auntie, it's me, Zhong Lin."

"Dalinzi!"

The middle door opened with a creak.

"Come in, come in."

Aunt Zhou stepped aside to let Zhong Lin in, then cautiously looked around outside, turned around and locked the door, then she breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing what Zhong Lin was carrying, he complained again: "Dalinzi, you just came, why did you bring anything? This year is not easy, don't bother with these face-saving things, especially the wine, it's so expensive, and it won't even stop you from getting hungry."

Old Zhou has only one daughter, who has been married for a long time, and he has no sons, so usually it is just Old Zhou and Aunt Zhou who are at home.

Therefore, when Zhong Lin came to visit for the first time, Aunt Zhou liked him immediately because of his sweet talk and good manners, and treated him as her own nephew.

Aunt Zhou's words were not just polite words, they were sincere.

"It's not a good thing. The wine is from the past. I don't like it, so I can give it to Lao Zhou. Where is Lao Zhou?"

"Inside the house! Lao Zhou, come out quickly, Dalinzi is here."

Aunt Zhou shouted towards the main hall.

Old Zhou also walked out of the house yawning, his eyes bloodshot. It was obvious that he didn't sleep well last night, or he didn't sleep all night.

"You went up to the city wall?" Zhong Lin asked curiously.

"If I, with my old bones, go up to the city wall again, the county town will be really deserted. It's just that the noise was too loud last night and I didn't dare to sleep." Old Zhou waved his hand.

Neither of them entered the house, but sat down at the stone table in the corner.

"Old Zhou, the entire county was ablaze last night. You're well-informed. What happened?"

Zhong Lin lowered his voice and asked.

"What else could have happened? A rebellious army attacked the city, and the spies caused trouble in the city. When I went to the government office this morning, I heard that the Zhang and Du families were attacked and suffered heavy losses. The old man of the Du family was injured, and it is said that both of his sons are gone. It's really tragic."

So he said he was miserable, but there was a slight smile on his face, and it was obvious that he didn't like the Du family very much.

"What about the Zhang family?"

Zhong Lin's face was full of curiosity. Last night, he chose the Du family when given the choice between the two. He really didn't know what was going on with the Zhang family.

"The Zhang family is fine. The Zhang family head and his eldest son are both sixth-grade Qi and blood warriors. They fought off the invading thieves. It's just that the courtyard was burned quite badly, and some of the guards died."

"The rebel army was able to attack the city but was stopped by the county magistrate. I don't think they can hold it back for much longer. Yesterday I went up to the city wall and took a look. There were so many people that I couldn't tell which were the rebels and which were the victims. They will continue to attack the city in order to have something to eat and to survive. We can't stop them!"

Thinking of the scene he saw outside the city yesterday, Lao Zhou still felt a lingering fear.

The mountains and plains were endless and there were disaster victims everywhere. When the disaster victims combined with the rebel army, it was like a flood that could not be stopped at all.

In order to survive and have something to eat, the victims were not afraid of weapons at all. This was why Guo Yanhuai was able to take shape in a short time. How could a group of rabble besiege Heishan County? It was because of their large numbers, just like the Yellow Turban Army in their previous life.

"Zhong Lin, you should be careful too. If the city is really broken, you must protect yourself. Don't fight hard. Run when you need to. You are an entry-level warrior. As long as you don't jump too much, basically you will be fine." Lao Zhou warned.

"I see."

After chatting for a while, Zhong Lin got up and left. No matter what was happening outside, what he had to do now was to improve his strength. As long as he was strong enough, he would not be afraid of anything.
