Republic of China era: A hundred-year-old still practicing martial arts? Is that right?

The next day.

It was before dawn.

A number of instructors had gathered outside the martial arts hall, with Xiao Jinglan standing at the very front, dressed in a dark blue outfit.

Lin Ji stood beneath the vermilion gate, staring into the distance.

"Extra number! Extra number!"

"The Jiangcheng concessions were divided, and everything within the concessions was handed over to the management of various countries."

Outside the door, the oppressive silence made it hard for people to breathe.

On the streets, green pickup trucks hummed as they passed through the alleys, carrying foreign soldiers armed with guns.

The officer in the black Ford looked on with disdain, his eyes sweeping smugly across the street, stealing glances from the window cracks and corners.

"laugh!"

A Ford car was parked in front of the martial arts hall.

The officer pushed open the door and came down.

"I am Zack, and I am honored to have heard of Principal Xiao. I hope to receive your guidance in the future."

Zack, a burly man standing at 1.95 meters tall, stood in front of Xiao Jinglan, took off his gloves, and gestured with his hand.

He completely blocked out the morning light, and the shadows enveloped Xiao Jinglan entirely.

Xiao Jinglan extended his hand and gave it a slight handshake: "Nice to meet you."

far away.

Lin Ji looked at Zack, slightly surprised, as he recognized the man.

Back then, before the ban on weapons was issued, the sentry station saw this person from afar on the second floor of Wangjiang Tower.

People from Great Britain!

Was Wutang Middle School assigned to the British?

It seems that practicing martial arts at the martial arts hall will be difficult in the future.

Zack didn't say much, turned around and walked towards the Ford, where a familiar figure appeared in everyone's sight.

The trunk of a Ford car.

Zhang Shijie gently waved a folding fan, fanning away the July heat from Zack.

Zhang Shijie's obsequiousness was exactly the same as Si Tianhu's back then.

"Back to the martial arts hall to practice!"

Xiao Jinglan's voice was as loud as a bell.

Everyone turned around and walked into the martial arts hall in unison.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Even while staying in the martial arts hall, Lin Ji sensed the lurking dangers in Jiangcheng.

Even Qingfeng Street in the south of the city was placed under the administration of the military governor's office.

It's also much more desolate than before.

The faces of pedestrians on the street were more or less somber.

Business was slow in the small shop, with very few customers.

These three days.

Bai Yu'er suffered terribly.

He suffered torture at night at the hands of Lin Ji.

During the day, Lin Ji still had to arrange for him to practice swordsmanship.

Lin Ji gently pushed open the door.

The wooden gate to the courtyard slowly opened.

Bai Yu'er swept the courtyard so clean that you could see your shadow reflected on the ground.

in the courtyard.

Bai Yu'er called out softly.

He was holding a straight, long stick.

The long stick is swung.

It possesses both the sharpness of a sword and the gentleness of a woman.

This is a martial arts technique called "Jade Maiden Sword Technique" that Lin Ji found in Liu Qing's candle cabinet.

It is a rare swordsmanship and martial art.

Bai Yu'er held a wooden stick with a sharp sword blade that sliced ​​through the air.

"call out!"

The stick struck a withered, yellow leaf in the flower bed.

With a single, precise strike, the withered leaf was severed.

Bai Yu'er put away the wooden stick and looked at Lin Ji at the door.

A blush instantly spread across her face: "You're back?"

These three days.

She suffered a lot of torment.

Practice martial arts during the day.

He also practices martial arts in the evening.

During the day, she practices the Jade Maiden Sword Technique.

In the evening, I practiced the Tongxin Jade Combination Technique.

Just three days.

Her cultivation level has advanced by leaps and bounds, and she broke through to the Skin Refining stage just last night.

Lin Ji was even worse.

Last night he finally broke a porcelain bowl through the paper.

The force penetrates the body.

This is a symbol of hidden strength.

However, they did not grasp the true power of that penetrating force.

At most, she's similar to Shen Jinluan back then.

It should be a half-step hidden strength.

Lin Ji nodded, his gaze sweeping over Bai Yu'er's thin training clothes.

Her training clothes were soaked with Bai Yu'er's fragrant sweat, faintly revealing her fair skin underneath.

Martial arts training has made Bai Yu'er's skin even more refined, making her even more eye-catching than before.

"I'm leaving for a few days. Stay here and wait for me to come back."

Lin Ji walked into the courtyard, and Bai Yu'er stuck the wooden stick in her hand into the black soil of the flower bed. She then stepped forward and took off Lin Ji's long robe, making him look just like a domestic young lady.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu'er was startled, and her movements slowed slightly.

"it is good."

She didn't ask any further questions.

She knew in her heart that the old man in front of her was not as simple as she had imagined.

She naturally couldn't possibly stay confined to this small courtyard, so she didn't ask any further questions and simply slowly took off her long gown.

The matter of the union of the two sexes.

It always works.

Lin Ji has gained a lot of benefits in the past three days.

Anyone with a discerning eye could immediately see that Lin Ji's wrinkles had diminished considerably.

Lin Ji himself could also feel that the blood and qi in his body were like a furnace, constantly regenerating.

"I heated up my lunch, want to eat it while it's hot?"

Bai Yu'er pushed open the wooden door of the side room, and a smell of meat mixed with the scent of medicine wafted into Lin Ji's nostrils.

What is the formula for a blood-nourishing soup?

wrong.

It's not as potent as a blood-nourishing soup.

The day before yesterday, in order to ensure that Bai Yu'er could break through as soon as possible.

Lin Ji not only gave her the Yin version of the Tongxin Jade Combination Technique, but also gave her a blood-nourishing soup recipe and a large amount of medicinal herbs.

Who could have known what would happen now?

Bai Yu'er actually used this soup recipe to cook meat.

Unable to resist the aroma, Lin Ji readily agreed.

"Okay, of course I'll give it a try."

Bai Yu'er, as expected of someone from the palace, was adept at making these small dishes and snacks. After using the blood-nourishing soup multiple times, she even improved upon it.

The improved blood-nourishing soup is as pure as water. When swallowed, its effect is one-third that of the blood-nourishing pill.

This is also part of the reason why Lin Ji was able to reach the peak of Ming Jin.

After lunch.

The beautiful scene I had imagined did not occur.

It's not that Lin Ji is incompetent.

Bai Yu'er couldn't take it anymore.

Bai Yu'er tightened her plain-colored outfit, afraid that Lin Ji would take advantage of her again.

After lunch.

Bai Yu'er nestled against Lin Ji's chest.

He didn't care at all about the age difference between Lin Ji and himself.

"Old Lin."

"You must come back alive."

Lin Ji gently patted Bai Yu'er's shoulder:

"I will."

……

After leaving the courtyard, Lin Ji headed west towards the city.

This place has completely become a Gallic concession, but the Gauls are romantic by nature. They don't act with the same decisiveness as the British, and apart from the low spirits, the people on the streets continue with their lives as usual.

Lin Ji opened a notepad.

The above is Shen Jinluan's handwriting.

Even the handwriting has a captivating charm.

Lin Ji opened the letter. It read:

"At midnight tonight, annihilate the Japanese stronghold!"

The demarcation of concessions is the most pressing issue in Jiangcheng these past two days.

Unlike the Gauls.

The Japanese in the eastern part of the city are ruthless and decisive in their methods of killing.

They destroyed the old and established the new, unaware of how many souls had perished by their swords in these three days.

Dog Tail Alley is located within it.

Lin Ji couldn't help but feel fortunate for his decision; otherwise, he would have truly regretted it.

We arrived in the west of the city.

In the former reception room, Shen Jinluan's eyes no longer held the alluring charm she had previously displayed, and her black brocade cheongsam accentuated her beautiful silhouette.

Dozens of gang leaders stood in front of her.

None of them dared to look up at Shen Jinluan even once.

Lin Ji leaned against the door of the banquet hall.

He carefully observed Shen Jinluan's figure.

He couldn't help but compare her to Bai Yu'er.

Bai Yu'er was only twenty-one years old, with a slender and supple figure, and a voluptuous bust.

Shen Jinluan was charming and alluring, with two long, snow-white legs that were captivating. Although she was already twenty-seven, she exuded a mature and seductive charm.

Comparing the two.

Each has its own merits.

"Tsk!"

Lin Ji couldn't help but click his tongue.

What's wrong with me, old man?

Has he truly become the Ancestor of the Albizia Sphere?
