Infinite Brilliant Scroll

Chapter 6

There are many martial arts gyms in Guangzhou. In recent years, it can be said that it is a place where the heroes of the southern boxing system gather. It is natural that Wang Xiongjie, a northerner, can open a boxing gym there with real materials.

At the beginning, he picked a martial arts street. According to the rules, each martial arts school set up a bench, and the benches connected to form a long bridge on the street. Each family sent their proud disciples to guard the benches. The entire long bridge, knocking down all these boxers, is qualified to open a boxing gym here.

After Wang Xiongjie beat him from the beginning to the end, the locals were still dissatisfied. On the day he opened the museum, he made an appointment to go to the lion dance to provoke, and Wang Xiongjie also danced the lion in response.

Eight lions from the south and the north fought in a ball. Wang Xiongjie arranged charcoal to pave the ground. There were red-hot iron plows inside the charcoal fire.

The apprentice in charge of the lion's tail couldn't hold back and escaped. He danced the lion alone and moved forward. The flames burned up from the lion's tail, like a fire dragon wrapping around.

Wang Xiongjie got the title of "Iron-toed Fire Dragon" because of his bare feet and no injuries after picking green.

It's a pity that although his reputation has grown, the martial arts hall is in a downturn. The locals are still xenophobic, and many businesses do not take him. No one introduces high-ranking customers to him, and secretly suppresses them.

This time the General of Guangzhou came to him, first paid a lot of money, and promised that in the future, he would get a five-point bonus, which is one-twentieth of the tobacco business in the three cities and seven villages.

At least it is an income of 3000 taels of silver a year!

In the early years of Daoguang, one tael of silver was exchanged for a hang of money, that is, one thousand Wen. After 20 years of Daoguang, because of a battle with foreigners, one tael of silver could be exchanged for [-] Wen for making money.

In recent years, the price of silver has risen a lot.

Calculated according to the grain price in Guangzhou this year, one tael of silver can buy 170 catties of grain at this time, which is equal to the wages of a shop assistant for three months.

3000 taels of silver are enough for those low-level people to work for 750 months, [-] years.

Wang Xiongjie, who was still concerned about his reputation, was a little hesitant. When he heard the offer, his eyes were a little red. 3000 taels a year is still a long-term bonus.

Wealth touches people's hearts, not to mention the risk of people dying for money and birds dying for food. How many people spend their entire lives trying to find a chance but can't find the opportunity to work hard for such a large amount of wealth.

But working hard at least means having a chance of success, and that green-faced ghost was much stronger than they predicted according to the dossier before, and he even killed Zhu Changshou, who was a master of training.

Wang Xiongjie had already lost his hand and lost a lot of blood. If he still rushed forward, he would not be desperate, but courting death.

He had no choice but to run away, desperately, to save his life.

Ever since the Allied Forces of Eight Nations broke through the Forbidden City, Wong Fei-hung, who had just won the Lion King gold medal at the Ten Thousand Lions Conference in the Forbidden City, was hit hard and disheartened.

As soon as Huang Feihong left, Wang Xiongjie deservedly became the person with the highest leg skills in Guangdong. This leg skill is even more amazing when he is running away.

Many boxing techniques in the south, when practicing running, mostly pay attention to one heel to touch and go, which means that every time when running, the front foot lands first, relying on the elasticity of the foot to pull the calf muscles, from the leg to the hip, Along the back and up the shoulders.

When running like this, waving your hands can drive your whole body, and the more you run, the lighter you run, and the force of your heels pressing on the ground is only a very small part.

But Wang Xiongjie's Northern Fist is different. Every time his foot hits the ground, he shoots the entire sole of his foot. The forefoot and heel touch the ground at the same time. The bones of the ankle joint, knee, and crotch are important to push the body's center of gravity. hub.

Compared with the lightness of Nanfangquan, Wang Xiongjie's running style is more rigid and fierce, and the distance between each step is large.

Guan Luoyang chased after him all the way, but he still failed to shorten the distance between them.

This situation didn't change until they ran out of Diancheng and started to go to more and more remote mountains and forests.

In terms of the general trend, the soil in the north is thick and solid, windy and sandy, and dry, while the south is muddy and soft, with more rainfall and slippery.

With Wang Xiongjie's running method, in the wet mud outside the city, every time he takes a step down and up, he needs to spend some extra strength, which naturally wastes a little more time.

The distance between Guan Luoyang and him began to shorten.

What's more terrible is that when Wang Xiongjie turned over a gentle slope, a group of people with short knives were ambushed in the low-lying grassland ahead.

This group of people are all dressed in dark brown clothes, even their heads are covered, only two eyes and nostrils are exposed, the iron chain in their left hand has a hook, and the dagger in their right hand has a dark coating, which is very inconspicuous at night. The cloth strips were tied tightly around the hands.

As soon as the two sides met each other, the one closest to him stabbed the knife fiercely, aiming at Wang Xiongjie's liver.

If this knife really stabbed into the human body, it would be too late to scream, and he could only utter an "uh" and be killed on the spot. Obviously, he was a ruthless character who was used to killing people.

But Wang Xiongjie kicked back and came first, and kicked the killer an inch below the knee with his toe. The bone in the lower leg was dislocated, the knee joint was broken, and the whole leg was bent backwards, and the body fell forward involuntarily.

Wang Xiongjie raised his knee, just hitting the killer's chin, interrupting the screams that this man might be about to make, and causing his neck to snap back.

Although he can solve one of them as soon as they meet each other, Wang Xiongjie is extremely panicked. If he delays here, the killer behind will catch up.

"Get away from me!!!!"

The killer move inside the poking door, the nine-turn chain of mandarin duck feet, was performed under Wang Xiongjie's feet.

Nine turns in a chain, mandarin ducks form a pair.This is a killer move that combines footwork and legwork. The feet change rotations, attacking the legs forward, and smashing the soles of the feet from the side.

Wang Xiongjie turned left and right, his body swayed, and he kicked left and right under his feet in all directions. Every kick was extremely precise, leaving the lower body of those killers permanently disabled.

But these killers are not afraid of death, even if they are seriously injured, they still have to swing the chain with the hook at Wang Xiongjie.

Wang Xiongjie, who originally only wanted to break through here and continue running for his life, had no choice but to kick to death the dozen or so killers who had gathered nearby. Side waist and left shoulder.

Wang Xiongjie pulled out the iron hook, jumped out stepping on a dead body, and continued to escape, but after only a few steps, he became dizzy and fell to his knees.

"There is poison on the knife...Damn it, if I hadn't broken my hand and bled so much..."

He thought of this in a daze, and a double image appeared in front of his eyes.

With a wave of his left hand, Guan Luoyang stabbed Wang Xiongjie's throat.

After Wang Xiongjie fell down, Guan Luoyang looked at the killer's corpses with a thoughtful expression on his face.

The direction of Wang Xiongjie's escape was random, and it was impossible for someone to anticipate these things and send people to ambush him.

Moreover, after Wang Xiongjie yelled that sound just now, there were other movements in the forest, obviously not only this group of killers were ambushed.

But the other killers haven't rushed over yet, it's only possible that they have encountered their real target to ambush.

Guan Luoyang tore off a piece of cloth, covered his face, and sneaked towards the place where the fighting sound came from.

After walking less than thirty steps, under an old tree, they encountered the corpses of other killers.

They and the ambush target seemed to be fighting at the same time, leaving corpses along the way, all of which belonged to the killer's side.

There are iron hooks, short knives, guns, and even barbed wire.

One of the killers was still breathing, and he was resting on the corpse of his companion, groaning in pain intermittently.

Guan Luoyang rolled his eyes, and suddenly fell beside the man, covering his face with a cloth, imitating the local accent, and said in horror: "You, who are you, why are you fighting in the mountains in the middle of the night?"

The seriously injured person turned his head, his consciousness seemed to be a little fuzzy, and he said weakly: "There...someone, hurry, find something to tie my chest wound, we are the official servants who came to arrest the prisoner..."

Guan Luoyang said: "Where is there an official who dresses like this?"

The man was panting anxiously, and reluctantly said: "There is a sign, I have a sign in my belt."

Guan Luoyang reached out and groped for a bit. There was indeed a hard object in his belt, but it was just a coin-sized tag. If he hadn't heard it from his own mouth, it would be really hard to find it.

The small token was painted black all over, with white marks engraved on it, with "House of Internal Affairs" written on one side and "Worship Tang with a Sticky Pole" written on the other.

"It's really an official post, so what is the origin of the prisoner you want to arrest?"

"It's a chaotic party, the most important thing in a chaotic party..."

The man seemed to feel something was wrong, so he suddenly shut up at this point, Guan Luoyang didn't wait for him to question, he swung the token forward and hit his throat.

After getting up, Guan Luoyang accelerated his speed, chased to the place where the killers were fighting, and hacked the two killers to death from behind with a knife in his right hand.

The killer in front was alert, turned around and slashed at him.

Guan Luoyang blocked it with his sword. Between the flashes of light and flint, the hilt of the knife was retracted and made an extremely fast tilt. The opponent's dagger slid down from his blade and struck the oval gauntlet.

The tip of Guan Luoyang's knife had already scratched the killer's neck forward, and then he pushed with his left hand and knocked over the killer in front with the corpse. The knife flashed and took the lives of these killers.

He was punched by Zhu Changshou just now, and his ribs and internal organs were probably slightly injured. He chased Wang Xiongjie all the way, and his breathing was not so smooth. Skill contingency.

An ordinary knife, in Guan Luoyang's hands, was as nimble as a fish with sharp blades all over its body. The edge, guard and even the handle of the knife could be used to parry and kill.

He leaned slightly, rushing quickly and repeatedly, the long knife went around his body, as long as he invaded within four feet, all of them would be pierced by the light of the knife.

puff!
The blade cut open the chest and abdomen obliquely, and a palm hit the killer's stomach, and a large amount of blood burst out from the long and narrow wound.

When the killer's body also fell down, none of the uniformly dressed killers around stood still.

Guan Luoyang flicked the blood from his left hand, and saw the target they had ambushed a dozen steps away.

It was a somewhat embarrassing man, he looked about 40 years old, with an unshaven beard, and his clothes were a bit trendy.

The lower body has long trousers and leather boots, the upper body is a beige coat, a long dark scarf is hung around the neck, and a black beret is also worn on the head.

Guan Luoyang said, "Don't be nervous, I..."

"I recognize it!"

The man's facial features were tough, and his expression was a bit strange at this moment, as if showing a little cautious smile from the thick tiredness, "I recognize your saber technique, the move just now to ask the road to kill the woodcutter came from Baimei Mountain, Emei Mountain. The weapon method of the boxing evolved from Feifeng single sword. But if you have seen other Baimei boxing practitioners, you will know that your move is very different from other people's."

Guan Luoyang glanced at the knife in his hand and said, "Oh?"

"Because I helped change this trick."

The man swiped the short stick in his hand, the head of the stick was drawn upwards to the right first, then quickly dragged, and slashed diagonally downwards to the left. At this time, his left hand sank to his waist, making a palm gesture that seemed to be vomit but not vomit.

Whether it's the external movements, the shaking of the wrists and the sinking of the shoulders, the changes in the hidden strength stored in the elbows, they are all exactly the same as Guan Luoyang's moves just now.

But Guan Luoyang's movement was partly blocked by the killer just now, and with that person's position, he shouldn't be able to see the whole thing.

Unless, he is really familiar with this trick to the bone.

Guan Luoyang put the knife back into its sheath, and had some associations in his mind.

After the man put away his stick, he pressed his chest and said with a pale smile, "Is Lei Gong okay?"

………………

Dawn broke, and a rooster crowed in the distance. The night with a dark moon and high winds was finally over.

Tian Gongyu got up when he heard the chicken, put on his clothes, shoes and socks, opened the window to take a breath, opened the door, got a basin of water to wash his face, and then went into the kitchen.

The kitchen was not too big or too small. There was an old table with vegetables and cutting boards. There were a few iron hooks hanging from the beams, and there were bacon and chili hanging on it.

The stove is an earthen stove, and the people who paste the stove are exquisite in craftsmanship. Two iron pots are placed on top of it, and no trace of smoke will leak out from the gaps on the edges of the iron pots, and all of them will rush into the chimney.

There was also a drawing paper of the Stove Lord pasted on the stove, which gradually became damp in the steam from the wooden pot lid.

I eat porridge in the morning. The rice was soaked last night, so it is easy to cook and sticky.

Although he didn't know if Guan Luoyang would come back in the morning, Tian Gongyu still cooked some more.

Guessing that the fire was almost ready, Tian Gongyu set up a few firewood in the earthen stove, got up and went outside to prepare for exercise, just in time to see Guan Luoyang trudging from the downstream stream.

If you go out to assassinate those heinous guys, you will inevitably get blood on your body.

In order to prevent someone from finding this place with hunting dogs, after each assassination, Guan Luoyang would walk around the woods, crushing some fresh juice irregularly to disturb the smell, and then he really set foot in the direction of home.

But like today, if you want to use stream water to wash your body, I am afraid that you will be stained with too much blood.

Tian Gongyu took a towel and threw it to him, saying, "Did you not go well yesterday?"

"I encountered a few hard ideas, but a genius like me will naturally succeed."

Guan Luoyang wiped his face, rubbed his hair a few times with a towel, and took out a ring from his soaked clothes with a smile.

"By the way, Uncle Tian, ​​I met someone last night who claimed to be your acquaintance. He was seriously injured, but I didn't dare to bring him back directly. This is a token he gave me. Look."

When Tian Gongyu first saw the ring, it looked familiar, but he didn't remember it for a while. After receiving it, he turned around and saw the two small characters engraved on the inside of the ring.

——Teacher.
