Practice begins with collecting character cards

Chapter 224
A few days later, a caravan bypassed Donglan Mountain and came to Donglan Town.

From the caravan carriage, a plainly dressed young man jumped down.

The young man was big and round, with a burly and strong figure, with short black hair, and looked intently at the town gate and the long high wall.

"It's finally here!" The young man smiled.

Suddenly he saw a person leaning against the town wall by the town gate, waving at him.

The young man smiled even more when he saw it, and strode up.

The two looked at each other, smiled and hugged each other.

"Xiao An, how do you know I'm here at this time." Xu Guping asked.

"The people in the caravan will calculate the time of day and hurry, and the agreed time usually will not exceed the time limit." Xu Gu'an said.

He was the one who found this caravan, and asked them to take a short detour this time to go to Xujia Village to bring his eldest brother Xu Guping.

The caravan used money to do business, and had business transactions with Yuanxian Department Store, so it was impossible for Xu Gu'an not to give him face.

"Brother, I've prepared all the banquets for you, let's eat and drink before doing other things." Xu Guan smiled.

Xu Guping readily accepted.

This time, the reception banquet was held in Baiwei Pavilion, there were no extra outsiders, only the two of them, no one disturbed.

The two brothers reunited after a long absence and told each other many things.

"Brother, since you have arrived in the town, what are your plans next?" Xu Gu'an asked after drinking for three rounds.

"At first, I wanted to go to a martial arts gym to practice martial arts, and then I would go on a career after I had a good skill.

But now that you are practicing the martial arts that you gave Xiaoan, the meaning of practicing martial arts in the martial arts hall is not very great.

"So I plan to join the bodyguard bureau in the town first, go out to escort the bodyguards, do missions, accumulate some experience in the world, and make myself mature first."

Xu Guping wiped his mouth and said, he does have some ideas of his own.

I don't want to rely on Xu Gu'an's help all the time, thinking that I should go out alone.

Xu Guan nodded, as long as Xu Guping's ideas were not too outrageous, he would support them.

"The largest bodyguard agency in the town is Lin'an Security Agency. The boss's son is in the martial arts academy. He met me. Let me say hello. Brother, you can go there then." Xu Gu'an said immediately.

However, Xu Guping shook his head this time and said: "Xiao An, if you go to say hello, I will definitely be treated specially, this is not the training I want.

With my current strength in the Bone Strengthening Realm, it is not a problem to join an escort agency, so let me go by myself. "

Xu Guan was taken aback for a moment, then understood Xu Guping's intentions, nodded with a smile, and said no more persuasion.

Xu Guping himself wants to start from the bottom, which is indeed more tempered.

Regarding this, he only told his eldest brother to be more careful in everything and not to take too much risk.

Xu Guping had hunting experience in the wild in his early years, and his style has always been prudent, so Xu Gu An probably doesn't need to worry about anything.

Originally, Xu Guan bought Xu Guping a house in the town, but Xu Guping also didn't want it.

The meal lasted for three hours before the two separated temporarily.

Xu Guping found a hotel to rest after being exhausted.

Xu Gu'an told him his contact information and the existence of Yuanxian Department Store, and he can be contacted at any time if there is anything in the future.

In addition, after understanding Xu Guping's thoughts, he did not give this elder brother any more help.

After leaving Novice Village, everything is up to him.

On the second day, Xu Guping, relying on the strength of the Bone Bone Realm and his good sword skills, was successfully appreciated, joined the Lin'an Escort Bureau, and became a trainee Escort Master.

When the severe drought is over, he will basically be able to participate in some business of the Escort Bureau, betting on Escorts to do missions and the like.

After some time, Zhang Yang, who had been traveling around Suicheng, came back.

Wang Jingshen, who was escorting all the way back, came back together.

"Okay, I've finished my task, so I'll go back and rest first. If you need anything, just ask your butler." Wang Jingshen waved his hand when he saw Xu Guan.

Rao is a natural master like him, and his face is a bit tired, which shows that this journey is full of twists and turns.

"Thank you, Brother Wang. I'll be the host of Baiwei Pavilion tomorrow." Xu Guan smiled, and then gave Wang Jingshen another bag of gold coins.

Wang Jingshen laughed and took it directly.

Money is used everywhere in cultivation, and he, a congenital master, is no exception.

When there is money to be made, it is usually not rejected.

"Go in and talk." After sending Wang Jingshen away, Xu Gu'an said to Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang nodded, his face was exhausted, but there was light in his eyes, and his whole body was full of energy.

Apparently, this trip across mountains and ridges was a tough test for him.

On the second floor, the tea party room.

Zhang Yang tidied up a bit, and then told about the itinerary of this trip.

The journey all the way was fairly safe, whether it was the Escort Bureau or him or Wang Jingshen, they all knew the way to Suicheng.

All the way is also safe and sound.

When they approached Suicheng, they encountered a wave of defeated enemy troops, and many people in the Escort team died.

Fortunately, Wang Jingshen was there, leading him out of the siege, and they just entered the city after this catastrophe.

"Nowadays Suicheng is indeed affected by the war, the overall depression is much worse, the population loss is serious, and many industries in the city are indeed as I said, no one cares about them.

According to the plan, I finalized several properties and went to the government to ask the price, which was much cheaper than I expected. In the end, I picked five properties and bought them together.

As long as Suicheng doesn't fall, even if we don't do anything afterwards, these five real estates can wait for their value to rise, and they can make a lot of money selling them. "Zhang Yang said.

He still has a lot of confidence in his own vision.

As he spoke, he took out five house deeds and land deeds and handed them to Xu Gu'an, and there were more than 1000 gold coins left over.

Xu Gu'an took away the house deed and the land deed. As for the more than 1000 gold coins, he put them in Zhang Yang's place first, as the first start-up capital for entering Suicheng in the future.

Anyway, he can get some gold coins and silver coins through dungeons every day, which must be enough for daily expenses.

"In this way, we can be regarded as having a foothold in the big city, but there is still a shortage of available manpower under the young master's command.

I bought some officers and soldiers from the big city to help take care of the five properties, but this is not a long-term solution after all, and we will need our people to station in the future. "Zhang Yang continued.

Xu Gu'an understood that in addition to combat-type cultivation talents, literary talents like Zhang Yang are also necessary for the development of power.

The more the power expands, the greater the demand for talents in all aspects will be.

And high-quality talents are scarce no matter where they are.

It's no wonder that those powerful people in power, when they see some rare talents, want to recruit them as much as possible.

Every year, the students who successfully graduate from the Donglan School, whether they are from the School of Arts or the School of Martial Arts, are the favorites in the town.

"In terms of talent recruitment, it's still up to you to handle the first screening, and then let me have a look at it." Xu Gu'an said.

Zhang Yang nodded in response. He said this because he wanted Xu Gu An to give him the power.

In October, the dry season ends.

If you go outside the town at this time, you can see the corpses of some starving refugees everywhere.

Drought, war, and famine made this year so difficult for people.

Fortunately, the severe drought is about to pass, and the war gradually has a tendency to be suspended as time goes by.

The days always start to get better slowly.

In the original Immortal Martial Arts Hall in the town, the five people who were originally recruited by Xu Guan have now become as many as 12 people.

Most of them were selected by Zhang Yang from the pile of refugees, and Xu Gu'an finally checked them.

The 12 people are all people with good character and clean background, and they are all talented people.

If you train well, you can reach the innate state in the future.

In addition to these fighting talents, Zhang Yang also recruited some smart people to work and train under him.

Of course, these people, Xu Gu'an, also need to take a closer look to confirm that there are no problems with their character.

When they learn from Zhang Yang in the future, they will be appointed to take charge of Xu Gu'an's other industrial projects.

I have to say that the effect of the insight card is really convenient and easy to use in finding talents.

If he didn't have this insight card, even if he trusted Zhang Yang's vision, he wouldn't be so confident in selecting talents.

It's a pity that among these refugees, at most, they can only find cultivators with grade C qualifications, and it is really impossible to find talents with higher qualifications.

Such as Liyuan and Shenxi's level of aptitude cannot be seen everywhere.

When a person's talent reaches a certain level, he will always show extraordinary characteristics and be noticed by others since he was a child.

If you want the pearl to be dusty, the probability of being picked up by Xu Gu'an will be very low.

Of course, part of the reason is that Donglan Town where he lives is too remote, and the possibility of encountering more advanced talents is limited by the environment and infinitely reduced.

If it was around the big city, maybe with the insight card, he could really find a few fish that slipped through the net.

Of course, the grade C qualification is not bad.

In a small inner courtyard of the martial arts hall, Xu Gu'an sat cross-legged alone there, carrying out his training.

He doesn't pay too much attention to his daily practice.

But when a breakthrough is approaching, or there are other special cultivation situations, and he is afraid of making too much noise, like the last time the house was burned down, he will often come to his own martial arts gym to carry out the training.

Even if he makes a big fuss here, at least he doesn't need to explain anything to others, and no one disturbs him.

After several months, the Qi and blood in his body has reached its peak.

The blood refinement is completely complete!

Under Xu Gu'an's rotation, the incomparably condensed Qi and blood in the body rushed to open an air pocket in his chest, and then flowed back to all parts of his body.

I saw fascia tremors all over the body, bone ringing, and a slight tingling sensation, but that's all.

When the entire body refining state is completed, there will usually be a wave of all-round strengthening of the practitioner's body, so that the previous four-level body refining can be completely completed and mixed into one.

But Xu Gu'an's physical strength has already far surpassed that of ordinary body refiners, so this wave of all-round strengthening does not help him very much.

Xu Gu'an was not surprised by this, he was more concerned that after this wave of body training, he had already met the cultivation conditions of the innate realm.

"Finally, it's time to step into the Xiantian realm!" Xu Gu'an clenched his fists with an excited expression.

Although he has a combat power comparable to the innate level now, his cultivation base is not innate, which still limits his future strength improvement to some extent.

And once his cultivation base is innate, his strength will inevitably usher in a wave of growth.

A real congenital master!
He has been waiting a long time.

After that, Xu Gu'an began to prepare for the matter of breaking through innateness.

The most important thing is to adjust the state and consolidate the body training state of Dzogchen just now.

As for the ingestion of innate energy, the Tianji jade pendant is the best innate thing.

In addition, just in case, he still bought a Xiantian pill, which was of high quality.

Such a piece cost him a full eight hundred gold coins, and it took him more than a month to transport it from the big city.

There is no way, whoever asks Xu Gu'an to ask for good, high-quality ones will be expensive.

mid-October.

Dragon Elephant Innate Skills (Blue, Beginner)
Xu Gu'an relied on his own comprehension to get into this innate skill that he got from the old dean.

It has to be said that the grade C aptitude is still good, at least it gives him the ability to comprehend and master innate skills.

And getting started with this skill means formally mastering it, which is enough to practice the first innate skill.

Once the Xiantian Gong is successfully operated for the first time, and the first external energy is born in the body, it is considered to have successfully entered the Xiantian.

However, not everyone will succeed in performing the innate kung fu for the first time.

More people's first attempts end in failure, and after many times of accumulation of breakthrough experience, they have accumulated a lot of money and stepped into the innate in one fell swoop.

This process also requires them to consume multiple Xiantian pills, usually one is not enough.

Naturally, Xu Gu'an didn't want to take the usual path, so he stretched out his hand and tapped on the plus sign next to Xiantian Gong.

Soon, what was originally an entry-level innate skill became a rough mastery.

The plus sign is still there, and Xu Guan is not satisfied, so he continues to add points.

Rough proficiency becomes proficient again.

The plus sign behind the skill just disappeared.

He has accumulated only the last point of practice points.

Theoretically, it is impossible for practitioners who have not stepped into the innate realm to achieve the proficient dragon elephant innate skill.

But Xu Gu An can.

With a proficient level of innate skills in hand, the possibility of breaking through the innate failure becomes infinitely small for him.

Glancing at the scorching sun hanging high in the sky, at noon, the sun is at its peak.

Xu Gu'an no longer hesitated, his mind sank into his body, and began to operate his set of dragon elephant innate skills.

Innate is divided into three realms.

Innate external energy, innate internal energy, and transformation energy!

The three realms increase step by step, and the innate masters who are most active in the outside world are those who have cultivated external strength.

A single-handed external strength is enough to crush a group of body refiners.

Naturally, there are innate masters of internal energy and transformation energy, but they are usually more restrained than the vigorous feeling of external energy.

Just like the sea, when there is no wind, there are no waves, but once it is raging, it will be monstrous waves!

It can be seen from these three innate realms that the so-called innate practice is a word of strength.

Whether it is external strength or internal strength, it is a process of evolution and transformation of strength.

Transformation from outside to inside.

The strength of the innate realm lies in the catalysis of this force.

There is strength attached to the ordinary palm, and the power increases instantly, as if using a magical skill.

This is much more powerful than the formidable increase attached to the mobilization of qi and blood by the blood refiner.
