Chapter 147 Promotion "Lin Guang, are you back?"
"Well, Aunt Liu, I just came back. Why is my yard so clean? Did my second aunt help me clean it?"
"We are neighbors. When I finish my work in the fields and clean my yard, I help you clean it. You haven't been home for more than a month. If no one takes care of the house, it will easily form spider webs and become damp and unsafe. "
"That's it. Thank you Aunt Liu. I have a box of pastries here. You can take it back and eat it with the children."
"How is this possible."
"Take it, this is my idea."
"I...well, I'll thank you on behalf of Xiaohu and the others. Oh, by the way, let me tell you, Liu Lili and his family have all moved away and were driven away by people from our village. They really deserve their ungratefulness. .”
"what?"
"Liu Quan became a useless person and was kicked out by the owner of the Iron Hall. The Liu family lost its backer and could no longer survive in Liujiagou. Besides, everyone now knows that you passed the examination as a martial arts scholar and ranked first in Nancheng. They also I want to stay away from you."
"It's better... to move away."
Only then did Chu Linguang realize that Liu Quan's house was in darkness, and the doors and windows had been torn down. It was like a tree fell and the hozenes scattered, and the wall collapsed and everyone pushed it down.
"Lin Guang, my uncle dug a lot of sweet potatoes at home and there's so much to eat. I'll get you some."
"Lin Guang, it's time to replace the roof tiles on your house. Let me replace them for you tomorrow!"
"This is the red lantern I bought at the Liquor Street. I'll hang it up for you."
"Your aunt killed an extra chicken today and has just marinated it. Eat it while it's hot!"
……
Chu Linguang passed the martial arts examination and won the first place in Nancheng. This was a unique thing in Liujiagou. After the news came back, the villagers in Liujiagou were waiting for Chu Linguang's return.
Not long after Aunt Liu bumped into Chu Linguang, everyone in Liujiagou knew that Chu Linguang was back. In the past, everyone was sleeping in their rooms and hardly went out at night.
Now they are all gathered in front of Chu Linguang's house.
Everyone asked for help, or rushed to help Chu Linguang repair the house.
Only now did Chu Linguang realize that Liujiagou was so lively, with people coming one after another, as if there was no end.
When Chu Linguang sent these people away, he found that there were a lot of things in the room. Although there were no valuables, they were the best things that the neighbors could get their hands on.
Chu Linguang actually didn't want to accept it, but the villagers were too enthusiastic. Some people dropped their things and left, and Chu Linguang couldn't stop him.
He had to write them down one by one.
The next morning.
"Lin Guang, my aunt cooked an extra pot of porridge and I can't finish it. Please help her eat it. Don't waste it."
Aunt Liu heard the sound of Chu Linguang opening the door and came over with a pot of porridge.
"Auntie, you are too polite. My master has prepared food at the martial arts school."
Chu Linguang pushed his hands hurriedly.
"It's just a pot of porridge, just accept it, Auntie... let's go first!"
Aunt Liu put down the stone pot and stopped talking.
"Auntie, if you have anything to do, just tell me!"
When Chu Linguang came back last night, he saw that Aunt Liu was more enthusiastic about him than other neighbors. She must have something to ask him for help.
"Actually, it's nothing. Your uncle's health is getting worse day by day, and he can't do heavy work. He wants you to help him find an easy job in the brick factory. If it's not easy for you, that's okay. Just say it casually as an aunt. Don’t take it personally.”
Aunt Liu said cautiously.
"I will go to the martial arts hall to ask my senior brother later and I will give you an answer tonight."
Chu Linguang said.
"Hey, okay, drink the porridge while it's hot. It'll become mushy when it's cold."
Aunt Liu looked overjoyed and went back satisfied.
Chu Linguang went to the kitchen to get a wooden spoon, and took a big sip from the stone pot. He found that the porridge cooked by Aunt Liu was filled with oil and some shredded meat, which was obviously specially prepared for him.
Although he practiced in the Guo Wei Martial Arts Hall before, he did not have any fame and fame. Although everyone looked up to Chu Linguang, they did not think that Chu Linguang could do anything good.
Now that he has won the Taoist examination and won the honor, everyone's attitude towards Chu Linguang has not only undergone earth-shaking changes, but they also regard Chu Linguang as a person who can do practical things.
The matter entrusted by Aunt Liu was just the beginning. Chu Linguang knew that as long as he could handle this matter well, the villagers would think that he was capable of both handling and practical matters.
You can also accumulate more favor points.
In the martial arts hall.
"Brother Chu!"
"Good morning, Senior Brother Chu!"
"Good morning, Senior Brother Chu!"
Stepping into the martial arts hall, Chu Linguang could also clearly feel that the eyes of the students from the outer courtyard had changed drastically when they looked at him, with admiration in their eyes. Everyone knew that it was not easy for him to practice, and it took him a full year to develop his punches. , was finally accepted as a disciple by Guo Wei.
Unexpectedly, he won the first prize in the Nancheng Road Test, and his reputation spread throughout more than a dozen counties in Nancheng. He was already considered a figure in Baiyang County.
Even the county magistrate Mr. Xu personally came to the martial arts hall to express condolences, congratulated Guo Wei, and told Guo Wei and Chu Linguang to inform him when he came back.
"Hello."
"Everyone, keep practicing."
Chu Linguang bowed his hands to everyone and did not ignore them because of his fame.
"Senior Brother Chu, I can't grasp the sense of Qi no matter how I practice Iron Mountain Fist. Can you give me some advice?"
asked a teenager.
"As long as you follow the methods my master has given you and practice hard, you will sooner or later be able to find the aura you are looking for. Remember not to give up easily."
Chu Linguang said loudly.
Since joining Guo Wei's sect, some students from the outer academy have asked him for guidance, but Chu Linguang has not taught anyone except Liu Quan.
It's not that he feels that he won't earn favor points by instructing the students from the outer courtyard, or that he's afraid that the instruction will not be good enough and will affect them, but that teaching the students to practice is Guo Wei's business. He has not yet graduated and cannot overstep without Guo Wei's permission.
On the road of spiritual practice, you must not only keep your original intention, but also do your duty well.
Chu Linguang did not dare to overstep his bounds and never asked Guo Wei whether he could instruct the students of the outer academy. He dared to instruct Liu Quan in the first place because Liu Quan was brought into the martial arts school by him and he was from Liujiagou. Even if Guo Wei knew about it, he would not be able to do so. They will treat each other as two teenagers from the same village and won't think too much.
Now that he had just passed the exam and became the first in Nancheng, Chu Linguang had to remember his duty and never let people think that he thought he was successful in his studies and could teach and teach instead of Guo Wei.
You must know that this matter can be big or small. If you are not careful, you will be charged with bullying your master and destroying your ancestors. Even if Guo Wei doesn't care, it is a very unfilial act to let Guo Wei be criticized.
"Oh, thank you Brother Chu."
Although the young man was disappointed in his heart, he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction on his face.
Chu Linguang didn't want others to think wildly, so he said loudly: "I was taught by my master. His strength is well-known even in the Governor's Mansion. If you want to join his disciples like me, you must practice hard. Keep in mind every word of his advice and never give up half-heartedly."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Chu!"
Everyone responded.
Chu Linguang practiced his punches just before the deadline. His words were very convincing and everyone kept them in mind.
Chu Linguang smiled at everyone, and then went into the backyard. After a while, Black Tiger came over, and the two of them went to greet Guo Wei. They first served Guo Wei some porridge, and after seeing him move his chopsticks, they sat down to eat together.
The days seem to be the same as before, nothing has changed.
"call!"
After breakfast, Chu Linguang used the day and night breathing method to digest, and then practiced the basic thirteen styles of marksmanship in the backyard. He wanted to achieve the state where people and guns are one, to the point where he can do whatever he wants, be able to easily use the surrounding potential energy, and also use the potential energy. The power is maximized.
Double the power of each shot, and your combat effectiveness will skyrocket.
He is not enlightened enough and can only rely on hard training.
Apply in the afternoon.
Chu Linguang saw that Heihu had just finished performing the breathing method, his brows were furrowed, and he didn't know what he was thinking about, so he walked over and asked: "Brother, what are you thinking about?"
"I have combined the breathing techniques and pile skills that Master gave me, but I still haven't been able to awaken the power of the Dragon Elephant."
Black Tiger said depressedly.
"Senior brother is extremely talented and will be able to awaken the power of dragon and elephant sooner or later. Don't be too hasty."
Chu Linguang comforted.
"I want to hear the sound of the dragons and elephants singing in unison and feel the power of the dragons and elephants. Junior brother, please help me."
Black Tiger looked at Chu Linguang expectantly.
"Okay, according to the rules of the academy, although I can't tell you the day and night breathing method, I can tell you my experience of awakening the blood dragon elephant. However, I am stupid, so please bear with me, senior brother."
Chu Linguang did not refuse.
He and Hei Hu are senior brothers, unlike the relationship with the students in the outer courtyard. Telling Hei Hu his own experience and experience is because the two senior brothers support and care for each other. If Hei Hu can gain enlightenment, Guo Wei will not only If he is not happy, he will praise the two of them as teachers who have a close friendship and know how to help each other.
"I know your virtue, it's okay, come on!"
Black Tiger was overjoyed.
"Brother, let me start."
Chu Linguang immediately mobilized the power of the Blood Dragon Elephant, used the Iron Mountain Fist, and attacked the black tiger with a downhill move.
What are feelings?
Obviously getting beaten is the most real feeling.
"Hey, junior brother!"
Black Tiger's eyes widened and he hurriedly defended, but he couldn't stop it at all. With a bang, he flew out and knocked the falling platform to the ground.
"When I awakened the Blood Dragon Elephant, it was like this first, then that, and finally this..."
After Chu Linguang made Heihu clearly feel the power of the roaring dragon elephant's cry, he told Heihu exactly what he felt.
Dinner is over.
Black tiger's nose is bruised and his face is swollen.
Chu Linguang said to him: "Senior brother, my neighbor Aunt Liu wants me to help her man arrange a light job in the tile factory of my second uncle's home. Senior brother, let's see if this can be done?"
"It can be done. The man you call Aunt Liu can just report to the brick factory tomorrow morning. I'll tell my second uncle tonight. Oh, by the way, tell me how you feel about awakening the power of dragon and elephant."
Black Tiger simply would not refuse.
"Okay, I'll invite my senior brother to the wine street for a drink. Let's talk as we walk. In a moment, you can call your second uncle too. My uncle works in his tile factory and has always taken care of him. I want to thank him in person."
"Okay, I'll call him up later. He'll be very happy if he knows you invited him to drink."
"Senior brother, I think that before awakening the power of the dragon and elephant, one must first penetrate the bloodline. Senior brother, don't be too hasty, first penetrate a bloodline, and then it is not too late to think of a way to awaken the power of the dragon and the elephant."
"Junior brother is right. I just want to understand first. Cultivation matters must be done step by step. There is no rush."
……
The two brothers put their arms around each other's shoulders and walked toward the wine street together.
After having a drink in the wine street, it was completely dark. When Chu Linguang came back, only a few lights were still on in Liujiagou.
Aunt Liu's family is one of them.
Chu Linguang came back and deliberately opened the door louder.
"Lin Guang, you're back from boxing practice. Have you eaten? Auntie just steamed a basket of steamed buns." Aunt Liu heard the commotion and hurriedly took out a basket of steamed buns from the kitchen. Each one was steaming, saying it was a basket of steamed buns. There are actually only five.
The world is not easy, but their family can buy white flour for cooking, which is already very luxurious.
"Auntie, I've eaten. You can take the steamed buns back. Oh, by the way, I told my senior brother's second uncle about Uncle Liu. He asked Uncle Liu to report to the brick factory tomorrow morning. If you have any requests, just tell him. .”
Chu Linguang knew that Aunt Liu was waiting for news from him, so he didn't hide it and said it directly.
"Hey, this is great. Thank you, Lin Guang. I don't know how to thank you. Please take these steamed buns and eat them."
Aunt Liu was so excited that she was trembling when she spoke.
"Lin Guang, uncle, thank you."
When Uncle Liu heard the commotion, he shyly raised his head to say hello.
"You're welcome. I'll just take one of the steamed buns. Aunt and uncle can keep the rest for themselves. It's getting late, so you should go to bed early."
Chu Linguang symbolically took away a steamed bun and closed the door to prevent Aunt Liu from leaving all the steamed buns.
"Thank you, Lin Guang. Auntie, thank you so much."
Aunt Liu was very excited.
After she left, a line of words appeared in front of Chu Linguang.
"Help Aunt Liu's man find a job in the brick factory and gain 37 favor points."
Chu Linguang nodded with satisfaction, took a bite of the steamed bun, and then checked the information on the panel.
Favors: 604 Changchun Zhuang Gong (0-2000)
Day and Night Breathing Method (1355-3000)
Weekly movement method (191-1000)
(Remaining life span 115 years) Chu Linguang vaguely remembered that advanced breathing techniques were the basis for strength promotion, and he did not hesitate to use all his favor points on day and night breathing techniques.
The panel information changes.
Favor: None Day and Night Breathing Method (1959-3000)
(Remaining life span 118 years) On the bed, Chu Linguang performed the day and night breathing method.
The next morning.
Two new streams of heat appeared in Chu Linguang's blood.
After awakening the blood dragon elephant, Chu Linguang finally awakened the blood dragon elephant. The two blood dragon elephants came from the Yang Wei Vein and the Yin Wei Vein respectively.
Chu Linguang clearly felt the sound of the breath in the blood resonating with the blood.
Improve with day and night breathing techniques.
The awakening of the dragon-elephant power also became a matter of course.
The power of the dragon elephant in his body now, if based on the standard that one blood dragon elephant is comparable to three or four blood dragon elephants, then he now has at least five dragon elephant powers.
Combined with the Zhoutian movement method, even if Chu Linguang cannot fully exert the power of these five dragon-elephant powers, Chu Linguang can still punch more than [-] punches now.
Among the warriors of his generation, he can be regarded as an outstanding existence.
He couldn't help but think of Yan Zhen, and asked himself in his heart, compared with Yan Zhen back then, who was stronger or weaker now?
Yan Zhen awakened the power of three dragons and elephants at once, and it took him three months after leaving the academy to penetrate his body's blood. It is said that he should not be stronger than Chu Linguang in the same period of time.
However, the Yan family has superior cultivation methods and abundant cultivation resources. They usually take supplements and medicines continuously, and the increase in strength cannot be measured by common sense.
Coupled with a killer sword technique, if practiced to the extreme, it can cut out a sword energy of more than three feet. Yan Chengdu personally said that the power is not weaker than Liu Eunuch's Mianrou Kung Fu.
Chu Linguang believes that his strength may be stronger than many people at the same time, but compared with Yan Zhen at the same time, he may not be able to surpass him.
At the same time, the combat power cannot be compared with Yan Zhen. If he can truly grasp the point of the integration of man and gun, and be able to apply the potential energy as he wishes, and bring out the full power of the potential energy, then he may be able to fight against Yan Zhen.
As for being compared with the current Yan Zhen, Chu Linguang has never thought about it.
After going to the academy to practice, he truly realized how far behind he was compared to the disciples of the aristocratic family.
What's more, Yan Zhen had been practicing for several years before him, and had stayed beside Wei Yongguang, and trained with the Imperial City Forbidden Army. His current strength is probably extraordinary.
You must know that Yan Zhen did not take part in the martial arts test in the last term because he won the first place in the martial arts test in this term. This shows how terrifying Yan Zhen's strength is.
How dare Chu Linguang dare to compare with it.
He has always been self-aware and only hopes to surpass himself in the past during his spiritual practice. He will not have ups and downs in his mentality or affect his own fighting spirit due to changes in other people's achievements.
"call!"
In the martial arts hall, Chu Linguang, as usual, practiced the thirteen basic marksmanship styles every day. The marksmanship combined with potential energy increased the power of each shot.
More than half a month later, there are only ten months left before the rural martial arts examination at the Governor's Mansion.
A dragon-like cry came from the backyard.
Black Tiger's talent is amazing.
After practicing hard day and night, and with Chu Linguang's side training, he finally awakened the power of a dragon elephant within two months after practicing advanced breathing techniques and running pile exercises.
Guo Wei heard the noise, entered the backyard and looked at the black tiger's condition, and nodded with great satisfaction.
Black Tiger couldn't help but said to Guo Wei: "Master, I have awakened the power of the dragon and elephant, I can pass the martial arts examination, and I can take the provincial examination of the Governor's Mansion."
The smile on Guo Wei's face gradually disappeared.
"Master, am I too ambitious again?"
Black Tiger scratched his head and said.
"No, you and Lin Guang are training hard day and night, just to pass the martial arts examination and change your family's life. There is nothing wrong with your idea."
Guo Wei shook his head.
"It seems that Master has never said that we should take part in the martial arts test in the spring next year?"
Chu Linguang asked curiously.
After he and Black Tiger passed the Taoist examination, although Guo Wei taught them how to practice as usual, he never mentioned that they should take the provincial martial arts examination.
"Does Master not want us to take the provincial examination too early?"
Black Tiger followed and asked.
"The imperial court has established diplomatic relations with the Turks. In recent years, wars have subsided, and heroes have emerged in large numbers from all over the country. Everyone regards the martial arts examination as a path to fame. I will teach you how to practice as a teacher. Naturally, I also hope that you can excel in every martial arts examination. Coming back from the top spot is just..."
"You have just finished taking the Taoist test, and then you will take the provincial martial arts test. It is only a year later. It is indeed a bit early. I am worried that you will encounter a strong opponent in the test. After you are defeated and fail, like your senior brother Wang, from now on Devastated."
Guo Wei hesitated and spoke his heart.
"Master, victory or defeat is a common thing in military affairs. This is something you have often mentioned. Black Tiger and I both keep it in mind."
Chu Linguang said hurriedly.
"Don't worry, there are still ten months left. As long as you sign up one month before the exam starts, you can take part in the Spring Provincial Examination. It's too early to discuss whether to participate now."
Guo Wei took a step back.
Chu Linguang and Hei Hu nodded silently.
"Master Guo, Mr. Xu asked me to come and inform you that he will come to visit you with his friends from the Turkic countries. He has already set off and will arrive in about an hour."
At this time, a county government arrest officer was led in by Guo Fang.
"Friends of the Turkic countries?"
Guo Wei frowned.
An hour later.
"Master Guo, congratulations, I heard that your disciple Chu Linguang has returned."
Mr. Xu and his party of more than 30 people rode horses to the entrance of Guo Wei Martial Arts Hall.
Guo Wei took Chu Linguang and Hei Hu to greet him at the door.
As expected, there were several Turkic friends in Mr. Xu’s team. Two of them, Chu Linguang and Guo Wei, seemed familiar. They immediately recognized that they met on a merchant ship. Later, they only wanted to pay [-]% of the price, so they wanted to transfer Master Yan. Two of the group of people were taken away by Uncle's large ship of medicinal materials.
When the two of them saw Guo Wei, their eyes were filled with hostility, and they chatted a few times with the people next to them.
"Master Xu, why did you bring these friends here suddenly?"
Guo Wei looked as usual.
"Master Guo doesn't know something. The imperial court has established diplomatic relations with the Turks and advocates the use of force to make friends. These Turkic friends came with the mission and have caravans under them to trade with us. I have heard of your reputation in Nancheng. , so they found me through the mission and asked me to bring them to see you."
Master Xu explained.
As the magistrate of Dayuan County, Xu Da couldn't help himself. Although he didn't like these Turkic people in his heart, he could only do as he was told.
"I see, Mr. Xu, some friends, please come inside!"
Guo Wei knew that they came with bad intentions, but since they were part of the delegation and led by Mr. Xu himself, Guo Wei could not turn them away and had to invite them in.
"Master Guo, these are all warriors of the Aika tribe. This one is Markel, this one is Iskoha, this one is Mahmoud, this one is...
They kept asking about you on the way. "
"This is the Master Bai Yangguo you want to see."
Master Xu explained in turn.
"I've met Master Guo!"
"Everyone, please take your seats!"
Guo Wei and those people saluted each other.
Markle and Mahmoud were not polite and sat down directly.
A group of seven or eight Turkic friends sat side by side.
The bearded man named Iscohar sat on a chair and looked around the martial arts hall. When he saw the thin bodies of the students from the outer courtyard, he couldn't help but feel a little contemptuous.
He bowed his hands to Guo Wei and said: "Master Guo, we have traveled thousands of miles to come to Dayuan. We not only want to form a friendly relationship with you Dayuan, and we will not invade each other from now on, but also want to do business with you Dayuan people. Of course, we want to see you even more. Look at how powerful Master Dayuan is."
"The people of Dayuan are not as brave and good at fighting as you are. I'm afraid I will disappoint a few of them."
Guo Wei laughed.
"Master Guo, don't be too modest. We have often heard legends about you all the way from the Governor's Mansion. We want to see how powerful your Flying Leaf Lotus Spear is."
Iskoha said.
"Master Guo, I, a Turkic clan, make good use of cavalry charges. Whether it is ground marksmanship or horseback marksmanship, you Dayuan soldiers have all seen it. I have brought the gun here today and want to ask Master Guo for advice!"
A guy named Gilhan stood up and said.
"Master Guo, don't mind. My apprentice Gilhan has been wanting to learn some tricks from you on the way. Just give him a chance and give him some tips."
Mahmoud said.
Guo Wei immediately understood Mahmoud's intention. Mahmoud was about the same age as him. Although Gilhan was tall, strong and rough-looking, he was actually less than 20 years old. Mahmoud named Gilhan as his apprentice because he didn't want him to be a real disciple. Instruct Gilhan in the end.
He wanted the two apprentices to compete.
Chu Linguang and Heihu stood aside and suddenly thought of Mahmoud's intention. These Turks were really cunning. They had obviously carefully investigated Guo Wei's strength and were not sure of defeating Guo Wei, so they used this strategy to set up a trap.
(I will make up whatever I owe. I was too sleepy in the early hours of last night. It was still [-] o'clock. I continued to type. I'm sorry!)
