Picked up a dark secret martial world

Chapter 22 Inner Strength and Mind Method
Eight o'clock in the morning, Longshan County Government Office, South Street Alley.

In the huge courtyard, housekeeper Wang Fugui was directing the concierge to prune the trees in the courtyard.

At this moment, the door to the east wing opened and Han Ze walked out.

The maid Mudan, who was wiping the doors and windows, said happily: "Ah, sir, are you finished practicing? Are you hungry? I will bring you breakfast."

Han Ze practiced in seclusion the night before yesterday, and as of this morning, it had been a day and two nights.

Yue Ji heard the sound over there and rushed over immediately to help Han Ze wash up.

After all, Han Ze received education in modern society and usually has no airs, so the maids and cooks are not as restrained as other wealthy families.

After washing up, Han Ze asked Wang Fugui while eating breakfast: "Did anything happen in the city yesterday?"

Wang Fugui lowered his voice and said, "Sir, the night before yesterday, a bizarre murder occurred in Lijiazhuang in the north of the city. Three members of a family committed suicide by throwing themselves into a well. After inspection and confirmation, they met the symptoms of drowning in a well. But that old well dried up a few years ago. .”

Han Ze couldn't help but be startled when he heard this.

He immediately thought about the fact that the boss of Dade Bank drowned in his bed as mentioned by the members of the Black Evil Gang earlier. The death of the two was very similar.

Han Ze asked again: "Is there any more?"

Wang Fugui nodded and said: "Yesterday afternoon, near the old temple in the south of the city, many people saw a woman in red holding an oil-paper umbrella. The sun was setting, but there was no shadow of her."

"Yeah, you came out in broad daylight?" Han Ze cursed secretly, and then asked: "How is the Zhenwei Escort Bureau doing now?"

Wang Fugui said: "Yuan Sihai's sister Yuan Fang is now the chief escort. However, the business has plummeted and was taken away by another Sihai Escort Agency. By the way, sir, the boss behind this Sihai Escort Agency is Song Defei, the county magistrate's brother-in-law. .”

"I think I've heard of this Song Defei. I heard he's very powerful?" Han Ze asked.

Wang Fugui said indignantly: "This Song Defei is very domineering in Longshan County with the support of the county magistrate. He has to get involved in every business, including brothels, hotels, inns, cloth piles, tea houses, pawn shops, watch shops, banks, etc." ...If you don’t give him a stake, he will try his best to sabotage you.”

Han Ze was surprised: "How could such a powerful person exist in such a small Longshan County?"

Wang Fugui knew that some "new" terms often appeared in his master's mouth, and he could roughly guess what they meant after many times.

"Yes, sir, this Song Defei is very awesome. But I estimate that all this must be Dai Kang's idea."

Dai Kang is the county magistrate of Longshan County.

Han Ze has heard his story.

In the ancient feudal society where "imperial power did not extend to the county", the county magistrate had sole control of the military and political power of a county. He was like a local emperor, covering the sky with one hand and calling for the wind and rain.

Of course, Dacang is different from the general ancient feudal society. There are warriors here who can fly to the sky and escape from the earth, but one person can defeat the army. There are also many local martial arts families, all of whom are murderous guys. They annoy them every minute. You can cut off the head of the county magistrate and use it as a ball.

The county magistrate certainly cannot cover the sky with one hand.

However, Dai Kang's ability to become the magistrate of Longshan County naturally relies on him. First of all, he is a master of the second level of body tempering. In terms of skill, Huang Dapeng is slightly inferior.

Secondly, Dai Kang has trained many martial arts masters, all of whom can compete with ten in martial arts. Tigers are also afraid of wolves, which is enough to suppress the martial arts families in Longshan County.

Moreover, it is said that Dai Kang has a backer in Fucheng, so although many people in Longshan County dislike him, they have never been able to kill him.

Wang Fugui followed: "Sir, you don't know something. This Song Defei has always coveted Yuan Fang's beauty. He has sent people to Yuan's house several times to negotiate matchmaking, but he was kicked out by Yuan Fang."

"So Song Defei bought a stake in the Four Seas Escort Master, not only to make money, but also to avoid getting involved with Yuan Fang."

Han Ze nodded, "Go to the boxing gym and find Jiang Yong."

"Hey, okay sir."

"Wait a minute, come back."

"What's the matter, sir?" Wang Fugui asked doubtfully.

"Don't call me master from now on. You call me old." Han Ze didn't bother to ask him to change his words before, "From now on, you will call me young master."

"Okay, I understand, Master!"

Wang Fugui responded, turned around and ran all the way to the martial arts gym, and soon came back with Jiang Yong.

"Brother Han." Jiang Yong shouted enthusiastically from outside the door.

Although he has not known Han Ze for a long time, Jiang Yong has already regarded him as his lifelong confidant and talks to him about everything.

Even when he learned that Han Ze had not married yet, he wanted to introduce his sister to him, but Han Ze refused because he did not consider life-long matters for the time being.

However, Jiang Yong never gave up, and would always mention how gentle, beautiful, virtuous and generous his sister was from time to time.

"Senior Brother Jiang, you are here, please sit down."

"Brother Han, what's the matter with you coming over to me?" The two of them were talking about their own affairs.

After the maid brought tea to Jiang Yong, Han Zecai smiled and said: "Brother Jiang, I came here to ask you where I can buy high-level internal skills and mental techniques?"

Jiang Yong was not surprised when he heard what Han Ze said. Han Ze had asked him about it before.

According to the degree of rarity, internal energy and mental skills are divided into four levels: heaven, earth, black and yellow. Tianji is the highest and yellow is the lowest. Each level is also divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower.

Different levels of internal energy and mental methods are very different in their efficiency in absorbing the energy of the world, in tempering the acupoints and organs, and in cultivating the soul.

For example, the "Kunpeng Heart Method" practiced by Huang Dapeng is a medium-level Huang level.

Don't underestimate the inner strength and mental skills of the yellow-level mid-level. This is almost the highest level of internal strength and mental skills that a warrior without any sect can have access to.

Huang Dapeng even changed his name specifically for this purpose. His original name was Huang Dakun, but he changed it to Huang Dapeng, just to let people know that he was practicing the inner strength and mental method of the middle-level Huang level.

Ordinary people in the martial arts world basically practice ordinary internal skills and mental techniques that are not even high-level.

Huang Dapeng easily agreed to teach Han Ze boxing, but he never mentioned the internal skills and mental methods.

This kind of thing about cherishing your broom is not unique to the earth.

In addition, secret techniques and secret medicines also have strict levels.

"Brother Han must also look down on the low-grade Huang-level internal skills and mental skills. As for the middle-grade Huang-level... to be honest, this is something you can only meet but cannot ask for."

After a pause, Jiang Yong said: "I know that there is an underground auction in Longshan County. Occasionally, high-end internal skills and mental techniques are for sale, but they need introductions from acquaintances. Brother Han, if you really want to try your luck, then I will Let me contact you."

Han Ze nodded quickly and said, "Okay, thank you, Senior Brother Jiang."

"You're welcome..."

The two then chatted about their experience in practicing Chai Feng Fist, and Jiang Yong left.

……

Jiang Yong is very efficient.

In the afternoon, Han Ze was taking a nap in the courtyard. Two little maids next to him were holding cattail fans and taking turns to fan him. Jiang Yong came over happily and told him that he had been contacted.

He was lucky. He caught up with the underground auction that was only held once a month or even a few months.

Han Ze immediately followed Jiang Yong and took a carriage to Dongcheng.

Longshan County is divided into inner and outer cities. Han Ze has been operating within the inner city before. This is the first time he has visited the outer city after entering the city.

The Dongcheng side is the road leading to Wulin Mansion. It has developed water and land transportation and extremely prosperous commerce. It is a must-have for martial arts families and gang members in Longshan County, so this area is a mixed bag of dragons and snakes.

Han Ze was sitting on the carriage and saw from a distance the laborers on the big ship, carrying goods bare-chested.

The noisy docks, huge merchant ships, sparkling lakes, and mines on the horizon all seemed so unreal, but they made Han Ze feel excited.

Having been active in the inner city, this was the first time for him to truly see the world clearly, and he finally understood why Liu San said that Longshan County was an important border town of the Dacang Kingdom.

Longshan County was much more prosperous than he imagined.

Jiang Yong led Han Ze around and around to the entrance of a rice farm in the southeast of the city.

A young man in a long gown came to the door and shouted enthusiastically: "Senior Brother Jiang, you are here."

After Jiang Yong introduced him, he learned that this young man in a long gown was the son of the shopkeeper of Mi Zhuang, his name was Lu Chun, and he had learned boxing at the Huang Family Boxing Gym before.

Under the leadership of Lu Chun, they came to a teahouse by the dock.

Not long after waiting, a young man with a mustache came over. After the meeting, he took Han Ze and Jiang Yong onto a small boat.

The small boat weaved in and out of countless huge merchant ships, wandering around for a long time, and the people around it couldn't tell the difference between east, west and north.

Finally, they stopped beside a huge merchant ship.

The ship has three floors, as tall as a building, with a pointed nose and a square tail, and crash guards on both sides.

The three of them climbed up the wooden spiral staircase that was lowered.

A short, fat man in a gray robe came forward with a smile on his face and said, "I and Jin Sheng, welcome you two distinguished guests to the Black Bee Merchant Ship."
