Martial Arts: Opening Awakening

Chapter 20 The Iron Shirt

"The Zhongnan Sword Sect."

"But the Zhongnan Sword Sect from Zhongnan Mountain?" Jiang Nan asked in surprise.

"En." Qin Si nodded.

"Amazing!"

Jiang Nan praised sincerely: "No wonder you have such martial arts and swordsmanship at such a young age."

You must know that this Zhongnan Sword Sect is not only the largest martial arts sect in the entire Shannan Road, but also one of the top ten sword sects in the world.

In Namsan City, which belongs to Shannan Province, it can be said that everyone knows everyone.

Even if it is just the most ordinary Zhongnan Sword Sect disciple, it is enough for the Patriarchs of the three major families to receive him personally when he arrives in Nanshan City.

Li Chen on the side also looked envious and in awe.

Qin Siqiao blushed slightly: "Brother Jiangnan, you are also amazing. Your swordsmanship is no worse than mine."

The two hugged and humbled each other for a while, making Li Chen's teeth sore from watching.

"Uh. You two are talking slowly, I feel a little dizzy, so I'm going to sleep first."

"Ah."

"go Go."

Under the candlelight, the two chatted for a long time.

Mainly because Jiangnan asked about some sects and things in the Jianghu, Qin Si replied.

Before I knew it, the candle burned out and the surroundings were plunged into darkness.

The entire space where the two of them were located seemed to be silent suddenly.

The breathing sounds of the two young men and women who were close at hand suddenly became very clear.

Qin Si moved a little closer to Jiangnan, exhaling like blue: "Brother Jiangnan..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Nan stood up abruptly.

"puff--"

He blew on the torch in his hand, lit another candle, and handed it to Qin Si:
"It's late, go to bed."

"Uh……"

Qin Si hesitated to speak.

In the end, he gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Jiangnan, then you should go to bed too."

"Ah."

Jiang Nan didn't hesitate, holding a fire bag, walked to the guest room that had been tidied up before, closed the door, and lay down with his clothes on.

After a while, there was the sound of the door closing in the next room.

As Jiangnan expected, the night was safe.

Information transfer is slow in this era.

It will take at least a day for the Poison Wolf Gang to wait for the news of Scarface's missed attack to reach the Poison Wolf Gang before making new arrangements.

Therefore, the few people in Jiangnan will live in the pharmacy with peace of mind.

"Morning!"

Jiang Nan greeted Qin Si with dark circles under his eyes.

"Ah, morning."

"Why, didn't you sleep well last night?"

"Uh. Maybe it's me who recognizes the bed." After Qin Si finished answering, she seemed to think of something, and put her face over the water tank in the yard to take a photo.

"ah--"

Qin Si covered his dark circles as if being pricked by a needle, and asked pitifully at Jiangnan: "Brother Jiangnan, am I ugly like this?"

"No. In my hometown, there is a kind of makeup, which is to blacken the eye circles. It's very flattering."

"really?"

Qin Si let go in surprise, and then asked in surprise, "Huh? Brother Jiangnan, isn't your hometown the same as mine, Nanshan City? Why haven't I heard of such makeup?"

"Er. Slip of the tongue. I mean, I've seen a make-up like that in a book."

"Ha. Brother Jiangnan, don't try to comfort me. At worst, I'll cover my face."

As Qin Si said, she actually took out a purple gauze scarf from her bosom, covered her face, and covered her eyes.

Jiang Nan was taken aback.

Sure enough, it is the most attractive half-hidden.

At this time, Li Chen also came out of the room.

Jiang Nan found that the swelling on Li Chen's head had completely disappeared, and he immediately felt relieved.

This is the case when stung by a poisonous bee. It swells quickly and disappears quickly.

"My lord, should we go directly back to Nanshan City?"

"Not going back yet. Let's go to Leopard Ridge."

"Okay." Li Chen nodded.

Going to Leopard Ridge is also good, just to temporarily avoid the revenge of the Poisonous Wolf Gang.

Qin Si naturally had no objection.

Baoziling is located in the southwest of Qi County, about ninety miles away.

The three of them had breakfast, bought three fast horses at a nearby station, and it was only noon when they arrived at Leopard Ridge.

Far away, there were mountain bandits stopping the three of them.

Jiangnan Daoming identity.

The bandits didn't dare to neglect, and immediately went back to the mountain to report.

It didn't take long before Jin Santong, who had just parted ways yesterday, rushed over.

Seeing Qin Si next to Jiangnan, Jin Santong's expression froze for a moment, then pretended not to see him, and smiled at Jiangnan:

"Master Jiang is a believer, so he really came when he said he would come to visit!"

"I don't know if your master is here?" Jiang Nan asked straight to the point.

"My elder brother is already waiting in the Juyi Hall."

"Leader Laojin will lead the way."

"Please!"

"Please!"

Leopard Ridge is steep, like a bowed back of a fish.

The Jiangnan trio followed behind Jin Santong, passed narrow stone steps, and passed through the triple stone gate of the village, before they suddenly saw a large flat land in front of them.

"One man is the gate and ten thousand men are not open. The layout of Guizhai is really impenetrable!" Jiang Nan praised sincerely.

Jiang Nan's words were not exaggerated. If there were no powerful martial arts masters, Leopard Ridge could withstand several times the enemy just by relying on these three stone gates.

"Hahaha... Mr. Jiang is ridiculous!"

Before Jin Santong could speak, a voice full of spirit came from a big room in front of him.

Looking intently, Jiang Nan saw more than a dozen bandits walking out of the gate.

The leader was a burly man, obviously a head taller than the others.

With a shiny bald head and a black cloak, he is full of domineering.

Jiang Nan knew that most of this person was the head of Baoziling University, and the Niu who had mastered the Iron Cloth Kungfu from the Dachan Temple was shocked.

Unexpectedly, the other party gave face so much and greeted him personally.

"I've seen Niu Dazhuan." Jiang Nan bowed his hands in salute.

"Young Master Jiang, you're welcome."

Niu Zhen shook his left hand and said falsely: "Mr. Jiang is a guest from afar, please come to the inner hall for tea."

"Thank you!"

Everyone entered the inner hall, and the guests and hosts sat down.

"I heard from Xiao Jin that Young Master Jiang wants to discuss a business with me?" Niu Zhenchan asked.

"That's right." Jiang Nan nodded: "The head of the family must have already found out that I have recently been arranged by the family to take over a mine in the countryside."

"I did hear it."

"Although the mine is not big, it is a high-quality iron mine, with an annual output of more than [-] jin of iron. If the master is interested, I would like to give half of it to the master."

Niu Zhenzhen, who had been casually lying sideways on the tiger leather chair, sat upright suddenly, staring at Jiangnan and said solemnly: "Do you know that trading pig iron with a copycat is a taboo?"

Pig iron can be cast into weapons and is a very important strategic material.

The Great Zhou Dynasty has been established for more than 300 years. Although it has been corrupted from top to bottom, and it is not uncommon for officials and bandits to collude with snakes and rats, there are almost no people who dare to sell a large amount of pig iron to bandits.

Because once it is discovered, it must be ransacked and exterminated. There is no discussion.

Therefore, when I heard Jiangnan's words, I couldn't help but be shocked and not solemn.

If it weren't for Jiangnan's appearance, and he didn't look like a fool who came to amuse himself, Niu Zhenchan would probably explode on the spot.

"Of course I know." Jiang Nan smiled slightly: "That's why I said, it's 'send' and the big master."

"What's the meaning of this?"

"At that time, the ox carts transporting pig iron will pass by near Leopard Ridge, and the boss only needs to send people to operate normally."

Jiang Nan couldn't be more straightforward.

"Then Mr. Jiang, you want me to 'send' you something from Baoziling?"

As the saying goes, "Gifts are reciprocated", "There will be no pies in the sky", so this eldest son of the Jiang family "sends" such a big gift, so naturally he will not ask for nothing.

"Haha. The boss really speaks quickly."

Jiang Nan laughed: "I heard that the master's iron cloth shirt has been practiced to a great degree, and the mediocre just happened to practice the iron cloth shirt, and he has already achieved a small degree. So, I want to share some experience with the master..."

"What? Your iron cloth shirt is ready?"

Niu Shock jumped directly from the tiger leather chair.

Quickly approaching Jiangnan, staring at the appearance of Jiangnan's delicate skin and tender meat, he scrutinized it intently.

After a while, I was finally disappointed.

Sen Ran said: "Boy Jiang, do you know the consequences of deceiving someone like Niu?"

Li Chen and Qin Siju on the side were startled, and stood beside Jiangnan with their weapons on their hands, taking precautions.

Jiang Nan waved lightly, signaling the two not to be impulsive.

"If the boss doesn't believe it, you can find someone to try it out." Jiang Nan sat still and spoke lightly.

"it is good!"

Seeing Jiangnan's swearing appearance, Niu Zhenzhen was puzzled, and stopped arguing with words, and waved directly to summon a young bandit who was standing guard at the door.

"Small success in the iron cloth shirt can already ignore the fists and feet of ordinary people."

Niu Zhen pointed at the young bandit: "Xiao He just went to the cottage a few years ago, and his martial arts has not reached the ninth rank, so he can barely be regarded as an ordinary person. Let him hit Mr. Jiang three times to verify Mr. Jiang's iron shirt kung fu. how?"

"No problem."

Jiang Nan nodded calmly, stood up slowly, and walked to the empty space in the hall.

"Brother Jiangnan..." Qin Si cried out worriedly.

"It's okay." Jiang Nan patted Qin Si's arm, signaling her not to worry: "I'm just going to try it too, the defense level of this iron cloth shirt."

Just now, when Jiangnan proposed to donate half of the pig iron and Niu shocked his heart, the two had already had a causal relationship.

Jiangnan immediately used the supernatural power "Stealing the Claw" on Niu Shock.

Sure enough, he successfully stole the opponent's famous stunt "Iron Cloth Shirt", and directly reached the realm of Xiaocheng.

Jiang Nan learned from martial arts information that the iron cloth shirt of the Dacheng realm can actually defend against the swords of low-level warriors, and it is not an exaggeration to claim "invulnerability".

Immediately, he was very moved, and wanted to communicate with Niu Zhenshen, gain Niu Zhenshen's cultivation experience, and see if he could also achieve great success.

However, cultivation experience is the unique secret of every martial artist, and no one will easily share it with others except the master and apprentice father and son.

That's why Jiang Nan deliberately exposed the secret that his iron cloth shirt had also reached Xiaocheng, in order to arouse Niu Shock's interest.

"Young Master Jiang, be careful!"

The bandit named Xiao He rushed to Jiangnan to remind him, seeing Jiangnan nodding, he immediately made a fist and hit Jiangnan in the chest.

There was a soft "bang".

Xiao He felt like his fist hit a thick layer of cowhide.

Jiang Nan didn't move at all, but Xiao He was knocked back two steps by the force of the rebound.

"what?"

Niu narrowed his eyes in shock and surprise, and told Xiao He, "Come again!"

Xiao He didn't dare to be negligent, put on a boxing air, and punched Jiangnan's chest again with all his strength.

Although Xiao He has only been on the mountain for less than a year, he is extremely talented in martial arts, and he is definitely a rare expert among ordinary people, so he was promoted to stand guard in the most important meeting hall in the cottage.

This punch with all its strength is not far behind even the attack of a ninth-rank martial artist.

Unexpectedly, when the fist hit Jiangnan, Jiangnan just swayed slightly, but Xiao He was shocked back three steps again.

Without Niu Shock's order, Xiao He shouted loudly, and the third punch with [-] points of strength had already been swung with a bang.

The momentum is fierce.

The fist wind whistled.
