Rebirth of Zhu Di's son

Chapter 146 Ji Gang appears
On the outskirts of Beijing.

In a deserted mountain cave.

Pang Wensheng pointed at the map and was introducing the defense layout of Jinling Regular College to the two people around him.

"There is a guard room on both sides of the main entrance of the academy and the second and third entrance gates. There are six guard rooms in total. The number of people in each room ranges from eight to 20."

"On the day of the quiz, half of the guards from the six rooms of the academy who are on duty will enter the Zhengxin Hall to guard, and only the other half will be left to guard the three gates."

"The quiz will last all day, sometimes until late at night. In order to prevent an accident, the guard captain Cao Hu will transfer the guards guarding the west, south and north walls of the academy back to the guard room to strengthen the defensive strength of each gate."

The reason why the front, middle and back courtyards of the academy can be clearly divided is because there is a two-foot-high wall between each two courtyards.

Therefore, the guards in the guard room on both sides of the three major gates not only intimidate Xiaoxiao, but also serve as a reserve force for the overall security of the academy.

Pang Wensheng pointed to a dotted line on the map and continued: "Mu Su, Hu Xiaoliu, you two, look carefully. If we sneak down from the outside of the mountain behind the academy into the creek, and after touching the culvert, we can enter the inside of the academy. Appeared in the creek behind the mountain."

"On weekdays, there will be students from the field of physics conducting various experiments around the river, but on the day of the exam, all the students gathered in the Zhengxin Hall. Except for a few patrolling guards, there was no one else in the back mountain."

"Follow the east bank of the river and make two more turns, and you can go around to the south of the hill, which is closest to the Zhengxin Hall."

"According to accurate information, on the 1000th of this month, more than [-] students will take part in the quiz. Each group of ten students will be assessed simultaneously in four side halls. Because the assessment is complicated and there are other students observing and studying, it is quite popular. It takes time. Unless there are special circumstances, Zhu Er will stay in the academy until dark, or even late at night."

"As long as we kill the guards in the back mountain and change into their clothes, we can easily enter the Zhengxin Palace. Then we use the dim lights at night to blend into the crowd and create chaos. Then we use a small crossbow to shoot poisonous arrows and kill Zhu. Second, it is possible to destroy Zhu Er’s appearance.”

"The final opponent I am waiting for, apart from the academy guards who can be easily dealt with, there are only two guards with strong martial arts around Zhu Er."

"Sir, I heard that the dwarf monkey (Zhao Junchen) knows the iron cloth shirt, and the fat man (Wei Xian) knows the golden bell cover. They are not easy to deal with. We want to use firearms only in a very short period of time. It is too difficult to kill these two people by force."

Hu Xiaoliu couldn't help but said: "Although I have practiced martial arts for eight years, my boxing and kicking skills are not as good as Brother Mu's."

"Hu Xiaoliu, do you think we are living in a storyteller's story?"

Pang Wensheng said coldly: "The golden bell cover and iron cloth shirt are just deceptive names. In fact, they are a kind of hard Kung Fu called Vajra Kung Fu. Since ancient times, soldiers have mostly practiced this hard Kung Fu. The enemy is not invulnerable to fire or water."

Mu Su then said, "Sir, you are right. The Diamond Kung Fu is indeed a hard skill popular among the military. However, it is not easy to practice it. Those with weak minds or weak bodies cannot practice it at all."

Pang Wensheng had cured Mu Su and Hu Xiaoliu who were infected with the disease. Therefore, Mu and Hu trusted and respected Pang Wensheng and called him "Sir".

Hu Xiaoliu felt the difficulty and said with some surprise: "When I was forced to live in the world after my family was ruined, I heard someone mention it. I didn't expect that such martial arts actually existed in this world?"

"I have a fellow Shandong man who saw no hope in the imperial examination, so he changed his mind to martial arts and planned to join the army. He and his master practiced hard skills like this."

Mu Su said coquettishly: "As far as I know, when practicing this kind of hard work, you use a cloth hammer to beat your chest and back at first. When you feel no pain when you hit with a cloth hammer, you switch to a wooden hammer. When you hit with a wooden hammer and you don't feel any pain, , then switch to a hammer, and when the hammer no longer hurts, start sleeping on a hard bed, and then combine it with other exercise methods. Only after practicing for more than three years can you achieve something."

In fact, all hard skills are practiced in a cyclical and gradual manner. The ultimate goal is to enhance the hardness of bones and slowly change the shape of local bones in the body.

For people who have practiced Vajra Kung Fu, the bones in the chest and back have merged together, and the bones inside are extremely hard.

In other words, this person's chest and back are almost as solid as a rock. Hitting it with ordinary fists and feet is like hitting an iron plate. It is naturally difficult for ordinary swords to pierce. This is also the origin of the bluffing name "Golden Bell".

"We can't beat them head-on, but they are also made of flesh and blood, and their eyes and necks are all vulnerable. A slender crossbow arrow coated with poison can make them incapacitated and even lose half of their lives. , became disabled. My face was injured by this poison."

When Pang Wensheng said this, he took out a three-inch long white jade bottle from his arms.

He placed the bottle on the palm of his right hand and shook it in front of the two of them.

"This half bottle of poison is enough to deal with them. Even if you can't kill Zhu Er in the end, it will be considered a success if you disfigure him. Both you and Zhu Er have the hatred of destroying your family and destroying your family. Now that things have happened, we have no way out."

Pang Wensheng put the medicine bottle in his arms and said: "Tomorrow is eighteen, the day after tomorrow is nineteen, and the day after tomorrow is September [-]. On that day, we will take action. If you have unfulfilled wishes, you can try your best to go there in these two days. Do it, but remember not to reveal to anyone our plans to assassinate Zhu Er."

"Sir, don't worry, I have no blood relatives in this world, and no one in the capital recognizes me. For the past two days, I have stayed in this cave, practicing the accuracy of my crossbow arrows, and I will not go anywhere."

Hu Xiaoliu said decisively.

Pang Wensheng looked at the six-foot-tall Hu Xiaoliu, grinned and said, "Okay, I'll accompany you."

When he laughed, the scars on his face immediately appeared, making his face look very ferocious.

Hu Xiaoliu was completely unafraid and stood up immediately, bowed and said, "Thank you, Mr."

Pang Wensheng stood up, helped Hu Xiaoliu up and said: "No one can escape death. Since you are going to die sooner or later, why not give it a try? If this assassination is successful, you will have a lifetime of glory!"

"Sir, could it be that you are doing something for a noble person?"

Hu Xiaoliu asked in surprise.

At this time, Mu Su had also stood up and stood next to Hu Xiaoliu.

"The less you know, the better."

Pang Wensheng said this deliberately to make Hu Xiaoliu misunderstand.

He could tell that Mu Su, who was silent by the side, had something or someone in his heart that he couldn't let go of. His words at this time were tantamount to strengthening the determination of Hu and Mu to participate in the assassination.

"There is no turning back when you draw a bow. Mu Su, I hope you can understand this truth." Pang Wensheng stared at the slim Mu Su and said.

Mu Su bowed and said, "I have never regretted my decision. Sir, please rest assured, I will definitely be back here before tomorrow night."

The next day.

early morning.

In the capital city, the backyard of a small inn.

A six-foot-five strong man with his upper body bare was waving the thick-backed iron knife in his hand in the yard, doing various chopping moves.

Mu Su was holding a bowl of porridge, squatting not far away and watching the strong man practice his sword.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly, the thick-backed iron knife was thrown out by the strong man, and it accurately hit the cracks in the ground in front of Mu Su.

"Ji Gang, there are still ten steps left, and your iron sword will hit my head."

Mu Su visually measured the distance between the iron knife and him, and then said loudly with an angry expression on his face.

"We traveled thousands of miles and came to the capital from Linyi, Shandong. We agreed to join the army together, so that we could immediately win honors and be granted the title of wife. It would be better for you to leave me without saying a word and go on your own happily. No trace for ten days.”

Ji Gang walked in front of Mu Su with steady steps, pulled out the iron knife, held it in his hand, and continued: "Do you still regard me as your brother?"

Mu Su threw the bowl aside, quickly stretched out his right hand, and snatched the iron knife from Ji Gang's hand.

Without saying a word, he raised the iron knife and pretended to chop off his left hand.

"Dangdang!"

Ji Gang kicked out with lightning speed, knocking the iron knife away from Mu Su's hand, and then cursed: "What's wrong with you?"

"Brother, I'm sorry for you."

Mu Su suddenly knelt on the ground, bowed his head and cried: "The revenge for killing my father is irreconcilable, I have to avenge it!"

"You're crazy!" Ji Gang hurriedly helped Mu Su up and whispered: "You want to seek revenge from the Jin Yiwei?"

Mu Su didn't say a word.

Ji Gang cursed angrily: "Can you f*cking speak properly?"

"Brother, this is my private matter." Mu Su said with determination, "I came back this time to say goodbye to you."

Ji Gang asked anxiously: "Are you going to give up and join the army?"

Mu Su said: "The selection of the Shenji Team is strict. Even if I can get in, if I want to climb to a high position, it won't be impossible without one or twenty years or a chance encounter."

"Your Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince both attach great importance to the Divine Machinery. As long as we join the Divine Machinery Team, it will not be difficult for us to stand out." Ji Gang advised.

"This is easy to say, but extremely difficult to do. Therefore, I decided to take a shortcut."

Mu Su did not listen to the advice and instead made a point.Ji Gang asked in a low voice: "What shortcut are you going to take? Are you going to assassinate the captain in Jinyi who was the leader?"

"Isn't it possible?" Mu Su asked.

"Just you?"

Ji Gang felt that the other party was a bit arrogant and deliberately laughed: "Haha, I'm afraid even you don't believe this."

Seeing that Mu Su's eyes were a little evasive, he felt that he had guessed the other party's intention, so he persuaded him again: "You are going to die by doing this. Listen to my advice and follow me to join the army."

"It's too late. There's no turning back. I've already found a contact person."

Mu Su gritted his teeth and said, "In a few days, I will make that person pay the price!"

"Now that we have said that, it would be unloyal for me to stop you again. In this way, before we part ways, I want to compete with you again to see if your martial arts have improved in the past half month. How about that? ?”

Ji Gang thought of a plan and said.

Mu Su had no doubts. He felt that what Ji Gang said was reasonable, so he nodded.

"A sword fight or a sword fight?"

Ji Gang said something first, and then shook his head and said: "Forget it, you have never defeated me with a sword, so you should use your best crossbow."

Mu Su nodded in agreement.

After a while, the two got into position and began to compete.

"Brother, you have to be careful. Although the crossbow arrow has removed its stinger, it still hurts when it hits the body."

Mu Su raised his crossbow, aimed at Ji Gang's shoulder and said.

"You must have forgotten that what I practice is hard work. My chest and back are as hard as a rock. There is no difference between a crossbow arrow and a tickle."

Ji Gang deliberately boasted.

"Look at the arrows!"

"Look at the knife!"

The two quickly fought together.

Many waiters and guests at the inn were attracted by the sound of fighting and came to the backyard to watch.

After the two fought for about ten rounds.

Ji Gang suddenly revealed a flaw and pretended to be hit by a crossbow arrow and fell to the ground.

Mu Su didn't know there was a trick, so he hurried over to check, intending to help Ji Gang up.

Suddenly, Ji Gang jumped up and hugged Mu Su in an instant. With lightning speed, he knocked the crossbow arrow out of Mu Su's hand, and then used a grappling technique to cut off Mu Su's hands on his back, making him It cannot move.

"Ji Gang, if you still regard me as a brother, please let go." Mu Su whispered.

"Brother Mu, I'm sorry, I can't let you die."

Ji Gang said softly.

Then, he turned to an innkeeper watching the competition and said, "Don't look at it. I'm talking about you. Go and find me a piece of strong hemp rope."

"Okay sir."

The waiter wisely ran to the inn warehouse, selected a long thick rope, and then hurried back to Ji Gang.

"Why are you still standing there? Why don't you help me tie up this thief?"

Ji Gang stared at the man with sharp eyes and asked sternly.

"Ji Gang, what exactly do you want?"

Mu Su noticed something was wrong and asked quickly.

Ji Gang heard this but ignored him.

"I'm not a thief. You kidnapped civilians and violated the law of the court. You will be imprisoned in the future!"

Mu Su stared at the guy with wide eyes and threatened.

But Ji Gang said to the clerk: "Don't worry about him. He is deliberately scaring you. If anything happens, I will take care of it. I will send him to see the official later. When he gets to the Yamen, he will be honest."

The waiter was determined and hurriedly stepped forward and tied up Mu Su with three strokes.

When Ji Gang saw that Mu Su was tied up, he released his hand, checked the rope, and tightened the rope again.

After confirming that Mu Su could not escape, Ji Gang cupped his fists and looked around at the people watching in the backyard and said something.

"All the young and old men present here can bear witness. I came to the capital from Shandong to join the army and stayed in this inn. I never thought that I would catch a thief. Now I want to send him to see the official. If anyone is willing to be a witness, please Come with me to Yingtianfu Yamen."

The guy just now answered immediately and said, "Sir, I'm willing to go to the Yamen with you to make a personal statement."

The innkeeper had heard the noise a long time ago and came to the backyard.

When he saw that his clerk was about to testify, he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse. He wanted to stop him, but Ji Gang gave him a fierce look.

"Please help yourself! Please help yourself!"

The innkeeper smiled wisely. He knew that if the kidnapped person in front of him was really a thief, then this fierce and shirtless man would definitely be judged by the Yamen as having merit in catching the thief.

And if a strong man who has been successful in catching thieves and has martial arts skills goes to the Shenji Team to join the army, wouldn't he have a great chance of success?

Ji Gang stopped talking to the innkeeper, glanced sideways at the guy who just decided to be a witness, and asked, "What's your name?"

"The younger one's surname is Ji. He is the second eldest child in the family. His parents are not very knowledgeable, so they named him Erlang. I can call the younger one Ji Erlang."

The man bent down and said respectfully.

Ji Gang glanced at Ji Erlang, who was groveling to him, and said, "Are you worthy of the surname Ji?"

Ji Erlang's face instantly became very ugly.

"Little brother, don't be angry. It was my brother who said the wrong thing."

Ji Gang approached Ji Erlang, stretched out his hands and patted each other's shoulders, and said solemnly: "If you don't mind, from today on, you will be my brother Ji Gang!"

"The big brother is on top, please accept the younger brother!"

Ji Erlang climbed up on the pole and immediately knelt down and worshiped.

Ji Gang helped Ji Erlang up with a smile and said: "Brother, please go to my room and get my clothes. After I get dressed, I will take this thief to see the official. If I join the Shenji Team in the future, I will become The divine machine soldiers who eat the royal food cannot do without your benefits, brother."

"Big brother, wait a moment. Little brother will come as soon as he goes."

Jijiro has a talent for being a bitch, so he immediately entered the role and said respectfully.

Listening to the conversation between Ji Gang and the people around him, Mu Su finally realized that Ji Gang wanted to use his fellow countryman as a certificate of submission for promotion.

He couldn't help but yelled: "Ji Gang, I treat you as a brother in vain, I didn't expect you to be so mean!"

"You can die if you want, but you can't ignore brotherhood and cause me to die together." Ji Gang said coldly.

Mu Su finally saw Ji Gang's true face and was so angry that he trembled and said, "Despicable and shameless person!"

"It was you who didn't want to be my brother in the first place. How can you blame me now?" Ji Gang retorted confidently.
