Zhu Tian: Starting from the World of Zongwu

Zhu Tian: Starting from the World of Zongwu

Author: Jin Zichen

In the land of Kyushu, martial arts flourished. As a time traveler, Song Xuan had no system, no cheats, and except for the "Pure Yang Wuji Tongzi Gong", he seemed ordinary no matter how he looked at it. His previous life was exhausting enough. In this life, Song Xuan just wanted to get a job, work from nine to five, and be an honest constable. But Song Xuan, who just wanted to lie down and relax, gradually found that while he wanted to live a lazy life, there were always people rushing to his door to die. What to do? He could only find a way to bury them all! (This book is a comprehensive martial arts book, integrating characters from the martial arts worlds of Jin, Gu, and Huang. Please don't stray into it. Thank you!)

Chapter 1 Dad, my brother is watching Xiao Huang...

Great Zhou, the imperial capital.

In a house on the corner of East Suburb Street, a tinkling sound was heard early in the morning.

"Brother, get up, today is the day for the Xuanyiwei assessment!"

Song Qian has skin as white as snow and a pretty and lovely face. She is wearing a tight-fitting outfit with a token hanging around her waist, which makes her slim and well-proportioned figure even more perfect.

At this moment, she was yawning and couldn't wait to push open a door.

When she saw that the young man in the room was already dressed and sitting at the desk reading, she greeted him with some disappointment.

"Brother, are you reading the Spring and Autumn Annals again?"

"Well! Reading history makes people wise. There's no harm in reading more!"

Song Xuan put the books in the drawer without leaving a trace, then raised his hand to hold his sister's head and pushed her out when she tried to break in.

"You're not a child anymore, how can you just barge into a man's room?"

Song Qian snorted, glanced at the three words "Jin Ping Mei" in the desk drawer, a smile appeared in her eyes, and she opened her mouth and started shouting.

"Dad, my brother is looking at Xiao Huang... woo woo..."

Before she could finish her words, Song Xuan covered her mouth with one hand and put his arm around her neck with the other. He glared at her and hummed, "A string of candied haws!"

Victoria Song stretched out two slender fingers and shook them left and right, "Two strings!"

"make a deal!"

Song Qian's face lit up with joy. She glanced at the desk with a smile and said in a low voice, "Brother, when can you let me see your Spring and Autumn Annals?"

Song Xuan rolled his eyes at her. With his sister's carefree personality, if the ancient book "Spring and Autumn" really fell into her hands, it would be discovered by his parents within three days.

He doesn't care about his image in his sister's eyes, but he doesn't want to make a fool of himself in front of his parents!

Father Song Yuanshan was practicing boxing in the yard. When he heard his daughter's call, he wiped the sweat off his face and walked in.

"What are you brothers and sisters up to again?"

"nothing!"

Song Xuan walked out of the room as if nothing had happened and said with a smile, "Isn't today the Xuanyiwei assessment? I told Xixi to stay by my side during the assessment and not to act tough, but this little girl still refuses to accept it!"

"You have to listen to your brother on this matter!"

Song Yuanshan stretched his body, the friction of his bones colliding made a crackling sound, and then he looked at Song Qian with a serious face.

"Although our family has been in the Xuanyiwei system for generations, and the assessment for you two is just a formality, even so, you must not be careless or negligent!"

"Every year, more than half of the Xuanyi Guards suffer casualties during assessments. Xixi, you've always been reckless, not as calm as your brother. You can let your temper run its course on ordinary days, but during assessments, you must listen to your brother. Remember?"

Song Qian curled her lips, somewhat unconvinced.

She glanced at Song Xuan, who was as steady as an old dog, with some resentment. Although she was unhappy, she still didn't dare to talk back to her father.

Dad has a hot temper. If you really make him angry, he won’t care whether you are a girl or not. He will really pull out the seven wolves and throw them at you!

Subconsciously, Victoria Song glanced at the Seven Wolves belt around her father's waist. This belt was made by her brother himself as a promotion gift for her father.

She was given a strange name, something like Seven Wolves. The wolves were never seen, but her butt was definitely spanked seven times since she was a child!

After having breakfast at home, with the instructions of his parents, Song Xuan grabbed Song Qian's neck from behind with one hand and carried the greedy girl out of the house with a bun still in her mouth.

Although it was just daybreak, there were already many people coming and going on the streets, some carrying breakfast, some eating breakfast at stalls.

Victoria Song held the sword in one hand, chewing on a bun, and muttered a little unhappily, "Brother, I'm taking the blame for you again this time. It was you who read the pornographic book, but it was me who got scolded by Old Song!"

Song Xuan glanced around, patted the sword at his waist, and whispered, "Be careful when you go out. That's our father. Don't call him Old Song all the time!"

"You're the one who taught me that!"

Victoria Song licked her lips and said with a giggle, "Brother, when are we going to confront Dad?"

Song Xuan's heart tightened, "What cards are you showing?"

"What else could it be?" Song Qian was faintly excited. "Of course it's because we're stronger than him! Old Song has been trying to be strong all his life. If he knew he wasn't as good as his children, wouldn't his expression be amazing?"

Hearing this, Song Xuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought that his identity as a time traveler had finally been discovered by his sister.

In his previous life, he was a planner for an online game company. He remembered that before crossing over, he was testing a martial arts game called "World of Martial Arts" produced by the company.

This game is set in the Kyushu continent and incorporates most of the characters in the novels of several martial arts masters such as Jin, Gu, and Huang. It is extremely playable and explorable.

At that time, he suddenly had an idea and wanted to try the martial arts fusion function in the game.

He integrated together the internal skills and mental methods of a bunch of top-level martial arts such as the Nine Yin Scriptures, the Nine Yang Magic Art, the Yi Jin Jing, the Xiantian Gong, the Changsheng Jue, the Jiayi Magic Art, etc. When he was looking forward to eventually integrating them into some peerless magic skill, his eyes went dark and he traveled through time.

When he regained consciousness, there was a game panel in his mind, as well as an internal martial arts technique called "Pure Yang Wuji Tongzi Gong".

He himself had become a child of three or four years old, with a burdensome little sister beside him, pulling at his arm and asking in a baby voice for candied haws...

"Brother, what are you thinking about?"

Song Qian's voice sounded in his ear, bringing Song Xuan back to his senses.

"Nothing!" Song Xuan said calmly, "Over the years, I've taught you how to practice so you can protect yourself, not to show off in front of Old Song!"

"Oh, I see!" Seeing that her brother seemed a little unhappy, Victoria Song shrank back and became extremely well-behaved in an instant.

The Xuanyiwei Yamen was located outside the imperial capital. It was a secret agency directly under the emperor and was not under the control of any department of the court. It had the power to detect criminals, conduct external intelligence, engage in reconnaissance, arrest, and interrogation, similar to the Jinyiwei during the Ming Dynasty.

The Song family is one of the 120 hereditary Xuanyiwei families in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Song Xuan and Song Qian, as relatives of the family, became members of the Xuanyiwei after being reviewed by the Xuanyiwei Yamen years ago. They were third-class Xuanyiwei, the lowest level of Xuanyiwei.

The third-class Xuanyi Guard is a position where most second-generation rich people in the imperial capital just live a life of idleness and wait for death. It can also be regarded as a hidden benefit given by the court to the noble group.

They were not assigned any important tasks. They usually just patrolled the streets and intimidated gang members. They received a monthly salary of ten taels of silver and lived a very comfortable life.

If one does not want to live a life of idleness and wait for death, but wants to move up and gain more power, then he must accept the level assessment of the Xuanyi Guard. If he passes the assessment, he can be promoted from the third level to the second level.

The second-class Xuanyiwei are the real members of Xuanyiwei.

Especially for a hereditary Xuanyiwei family member like Song Xuan, after being promoted to the second-class Xuanyiwei, not only will his monthly salary increase by 20 taels, but he can also receive one Dahuandan and two Xiaohuandan every three months.

One Da Huan Dan can increase one's internal strength for one year; one Xiao Huan Dan can repair the body's internal and external injuries.

These two kinds of elixirs were personally refined and bestowed by the Great Zhou Taizu. Only the hereditary members of the Xuanyiwei family can obtain them after being promoted to the second rank. In the martial arts world, they are considered to be panaceas and are hard to come by!

Even if he was the emperor, the quota of these two kinds of elixirs would not be much in a year.

The reason why Song Xuan and Song Qian signed up for the Xuanyiwei assessment was for these two kinds of elixirs.

Chapter 2: Could it be you, the flower thief outside the city?

The Xuanyiwei Yamen is very large, with complex departments and a large number of staff.

As third-class Xuanyiwei, the Song Xuan brother and sister were under the jurisdiction of the Xuanyiwei Yamen's Inspection Office.

"Brother Xuan, I heard that you signed up for the promotion assessment?"

After entering the inspection office, a man in green clothes with a chubby face came to greet me.

Song Xuan nodded. "My elders are pushing me hard. When are you going to sign up?"

The man in green laughed carefreely and said, "Forget about me. Don't you know my character? The salary of a second-class Xuanyi Guard is not something I can afford!"

After laughing at himself for a while, he turned to look at Victoria Song, who looked disdainful at him, and said, "Sister Victoria Song, I'll have the matchmaker go to your house to propose marriage someday!"

"roll!"

Song Qian kicked the other person and knocked him to the ground.

The man didn't get angry. He stood up, dusted himself off, and waved at Song Xuan, "You can't be my brother-in-law anymore, Brother Xuan, why don't you be my brother-in-law?"

Clang!

Song Qian drew her sword directly, her pretty face frosted as she coldly scolded, "Lu Xiaoliu, I'm giving you face, right?!"

Lu Xiaoliu shrank back and scurried to the yamen gate. Before leaving, he winked at Song Xuan and said, "I'll treat you tonight. Let's go to the brothel and listen to music!"

Song Xuan nodded slightly.

Song Qian said angrily: "Brother, Lu Xiaoliu is a weird person, don't always mess around with him!"

"I know, I know!"

Song Xuan laughed and hummed a tune as he walked towards the lobby of the Inspection Office.

How could he not know whether this person was inappropriate or not?

He's a good brother who treated us to drinks and music! I just wanted to save some money, is that wrong?

In the lobby of the Inspection Department, Director Zhao Dezhu was drinking tea and reading documents. When he heard footsteps, he looked up.

"Uncle Zhao!" Song Xuan shouted with a smile.

Zhao Dezhu nodded with a smile, picked up a cup of tea and asked, "These are the best wolfberries from Mingzhou. I heard you've been going to brothels quite a lot lately. Would you like to bring some back to replenish your body?"

"This, we don't need it, right?"

Song Xuan's smile was a little forced.

He went to the brothel just to satisfy his eyes, he couldn't do it for real. After all, he was practicing the skills of a boy, and his current level of cultivation was not at the stage where his yang energy could leak out.

Zhao Dezhu nodded and said, "Young people like to play, but they also need to take it easy."

After all, Song Qian was there too, so Zhao Dezhu didn't say much. After taking a sip of tea, he took out a document from the desk and looked at Song Xuan.

"Have you ever killed anyone?"

Song Xuan shook his head.

As a native of the imperial capital, a secret agent who works from nine to five and eats a public meal, he is suppressed by the skin of the Xuanyiwei. When he walks on the street, others nod and bow with a flattering smile on their faces. In this situation, how can he have the opportunity to kill people?

"The promotion assessment for the second-class Xuanyi Guards basically involves killing people!"

Zhao Dezhu blew a puff of hot air from his teacup and said seriously, "You should all know that the third-class Xuanyi Guards are just there to make a living, and they mainly deal with ordinary people.

But the second-class Xuanyi Guards are different. They often go out on missions and inevitably deal with all kinds of vicious criminals.

Many of these people are martial artists in the martial arts world. Some of them don’t care whether you are a government official or not. They will draw their knives and kill people if they disagree with you!

Therefore, killing is a necessary ability for a second-class Xuanyi Guard!"

As he said that, he handed the documents on the table to Song Xuan.

"I've specially selected the assessment tasks here. They're the easiest ones. You brothers and sisters, pick one, and then go kill someone!"

Song Xuan took a look and tapped his fingers on the third task, "Uncle Zhao, this is it!"

Zhao Dezhu took a look and asked, "Langlang Mountain bandit suppression mission?"

Then he nodded again and said, "Alright, although there are many people in the bandit camp, there are no powerful masters. You should be cautious and kill a few minions, and the mission will be completed!

Remember, you can't wear official uniforms, you can only kill yourself. If you cheat and get caught, you won't be able to stay in the government office anymore!"

"I understand, Uncle Zhao!"

......

After leaving the Inspection Office, Victoria Song finally couldn't help chattering.

"Brother, why don't you choose the first mission? Killing the flower thieves who have been active outside the city recently is easier than suppressing bandits, right?"

Song Xuan shook his head. "The first mission is too random. What if that guy doesn't come out to pick flowers for a month? Do we have to wait outside the city for a month?"

Victoria Song tilted her head and thought for a moment, then touched her pretty face and said proudly, "It's not difficult. I'll just dress up a bit and wander around outside the city. I don't believe I won't attract some perverts!"

Song Xuan tapped her on the forehead and said, "Show off!"

When they got home, their father had already gone to work at the government office, and their mother was busy sewing. Seeing the brother and sister return, she hurriedly asked, "Is the examination over?"

"Not yet!" Victoria Song waved to her mother, "Come back and prepare some things, we'll leave soon!"
