Immortal, I only practice forbidden arts

Chapter 54 Cross the river and demolish the bridge
Yuanshou seventh year, May.

The Cangshan Army and the Shijia Old Snake Gang cooperated with each other to attack Dayunfu City.

Two first-class warriors of the imperial army died in battle, and the rest fled in defeat...

Ten days later, the Cangshan Army beheaded the captive generals of the Yan Kingdom at Caishikou, and announced to the world that the Cangshan Army pleaded for the people and crusade against the faint emperor Yan Zhaodi... Before the winter snow falls this year, they will break through the capital and take the emperor's head!
Since then, the Cangshan Army has occupied the five northern mansions, and the Yan State court has steadfastly guarded the seven southern mansions. The two sides use the Yanming River that crosses the Yan State as a boundary, and temporarily draw the river to rule...

……

More than half a month after the city was broken.

Opposite the base camp of the Old Snake Gang, in an unremarkable courtyard with narrow alleys.

A young man with an ordinary face stretched his limbs in the courtyard, slowly doing the cowhide and tiger bone art, and traces of blood flowed under the skin, which was the blood force tempering the skin and muscles.

This person is of course Jiang Ming, since he entered the city disguised as a cook, he has never used his real face.

After all, Master Jiang of Liehuzhuang is well-known in this city, especially those special restaurants on both sides of Zuijin River...

"Speaking of which, those restaurants should all be open again..." Jiang Ming said to himself, thinking of the understanding girl Shuang'er.

Since the city was broken, the Cangshan army has killed and captured the remnants of the imperial army in the city, but it has gradually maintained peace.

A few days ago, the gates of the city were also reopened to allow the common people to enter and exit. The restaurants and shops in the city were all renovated and reopened under the instruction of the Cangshan Army. It was a peaceful scene to live again...

However, the broken walls and ruins that can be seen everywhere, as well as the severed hands and pieces of meat that are stepped on inadvertently, make this peaceful scene not so real... Many wealthy people are worried, and once the city gate is opened They fled Dayun Mansion one after another.

Those who remained were the miserable people at the bottom and the refugees whose houses were destroyed and their clothes were naked... For them, life was already so hard, so how could it be different if they went to other places...

Jiang Ming spent some money and bought this small courtyard from a person who was about to leave Dayun Mansion. He practiced boxing and drinking every day, and kept his schedule low.

Of course, the main purpose is to wait and see the Old Snake Gang...

Naturally, Jiang Ming was not in a hurry. The Old Snake Gang did a lot of evil, not to mention the enemies all over the Dayun Mansion. Now there are probably not a few people who have the same thoughts as him.

Last night, Jiang Ming also saw a man in black walking into the mansion of the Old Snake Gang across the street, and there was a terrible cry of killing, but soon there was no movement...

"No hurry, just wait..."

For Jiang Ming, the most indispensable thing is patience.

"Whoo~"

After practicing until the night fell, Jiang Ming stopped his fists and stood up feeling the exhaustion of blood in his body.

"The second-rate realm is indeed much stronger..." Jiang Ming clenched his fists, feeling the surging blood in his body.

He reckoned that if he used the blood-burning saber technique now, he might be able to chop more than thirty knives in a row. After all, the control and suppression of blood energy by the power of "artistic conception" is completely different from that of third-rate warriors...

"I don't know, who is lucky...to get my first knife!" Jiang Ming whispered...

Of course, the strongest point of a second-rate warrior is not in his blood, but in his physical body.

If the skin and muscles are tempered to perfection, second-rate warriors can break swords with bare hands, but it is difficult for ordinary warriors to break their bodies. It is simply a humanoid weapon, and it is also a great killer in the battlefield.

Jiang Ming heard that during the siege battle, the Cangshan Army's city-breaking team had several second-rate fighters, who used their bodies to carry the rain of falling stones and arrows, fighting to the bottom of the city and forcibly blasting open the city gate.

"However, my physical body can only block the paper knife at most now. I still have to study hard..." Jiang Ming muttered and went back to the house, poured the medicinal soup simmering on the stove into a bowl, let it cool down a little , Fang is a gulp.

"The effect of the medicine is good..."

Feeling the burning power of the medicine rushing to the limbs and bones, the exhausted blood quickly recovered, and faintly became stronger... Jiang Ming also smiled.

After killing Guo Huhu that night, Jiang Ming obtained the luggage he was going to use for his journey. Apart from gold leaves and silver tickets, the most precious thing among them was the prescription of the secret medicine for blindly practicing martial arts.

The prescription is called Zhuangxue Decoction, which is made from precious medicinal materials such as tiger blood, velvet antler, and golden worm ginseng. It is because of this prescription.

Jiang Ming happened to be short of a secret medicine to strengthen his blood. This Guo Huo is really a good person, and he would give him a pillow when he fell asleep.

"However, the medicinal materials are almost used up, and I need to buy some more tomorrow..."

late at night.

After Jiang Ming finished washing, he was lying on the bed drinking tea and reading a book, when he suddenly heard bursts of screaming and fighting outside, followed by a low muffled sound and a scream, but there was no movement.

"It should be a fight between third-rate warriors..." Based on the news that came out, Jiang Ming secretly estimated.

His face is calm, this is not the first time this has happened.

At this moment, an icy voice from outside, also wrapped in blood force, rang out like thunder:

"If you dare to come to the Old Snake Gang to make trouble, prepare your own coffin in advance... If there is another intruder, kill his whole family!"

In the dark night, there is silence!
After a long while, the "barking" sound of a few stray dogs sounded, which seemed a little funny...

"It seems that the Old Snake Gang really panicked..." Jiang Ming smiled, it was obvious that he lacked confidence to speak so harshly.

However, anyone would be flustered by this matter. They thought they had made great contributions and would be on the way to success, but they didn't expect that after the Cangshan Army entered the city, they would ignore the Old Snake Gang at all.

Even the Shi family has lost contact with the Old Snake Gang these days, and some Shi family members who met the Old Snake Gang on the street looked like they didn't know each other...

In addition, in the past few days, the Cangshan Army has been continuously liquidating the local ruffians in the city, as well as some notorious forces... Many people are speculating that the Cangshan Army may be planning to destroy the old snake gang for crossing the river...

Some daring ones wanted to fish in troubled waters, and before the Cangshan Army took action, they would go in and make some money.

Jiang Ming reckoned that someone might actually succeed, but there would be quite a few who would be killed on the spot...

"It's still a small fight..." Jiang Ming shook his head, ignored the movement outside, threw the book away... covered with a quilt and fell asleep.

……

The next day.

After Jiang Ming had finished practicing boxing early, he got up and walked out of the yard, heading towards Liehu Village in a swaggering manner.

For something like tiger blood, it must be of the best quality at Liehuzhuang.

Next to Liehuzhuang's house, there is also a special shop, selling all kinds of animal meat and blood bones.

During the siege battle, the gate of Liehuzhuang was closed and no one participated in the battle. After the war, he "donated" some animal meat, gold and silver to the Cangshan Army, but he was not embarrassed...

Jiang Ming also saw acquaintances such as Peng Lu who was on duty in the store, but naturally he didn't recognize each other. Instead, he slashed the price several times and was almost beaten out by Peng Lu...

After buying the tiger's blood, Jiang Ming went to Jishitang to buy some medicinal materials.

"The Drunken Immortal Tower was destroyed by a catapult, and Dr. Sun is out of luck these days..."

Jiang Ming walked inside muttering, but suddenly smelled a bloody smell.
