A master of supernatural powers who started from low martial arts

Chapter 88 Arrival, what I saw and heard, the magic effect of returning elixirs

"Uncle, us?"

Under the light of the fire, two horse bandits were approaching with malicious intent. Xi Beichen looked stern, pressed his sword with one hand, and reached into his arms with the other hand to prepare for action.

Now half a year has passed, and all the wounds he suffered in the Jingwusi dungeon have been fully recovered, and his martial arts has further reached the level of Leiyin in the Four Realms.

Although the horse bandits in front of him had more than a dozen guns, most of them were a mob. Moreover, it was dark and there was a post station as a bunker. He also brought a musket with him. With the combined efforts of his own party, he might not be able to deal with this group of people.

The only thing that worried him was that his uncle Li Jun had a hidden illness. If he really took action, would it have any impact?

"Beichen, Ayuan, don't move yet."

However, Li Junxian, who had now recovered from his injuries, suddenly whispered an instruction, then raised his hands and shouted loudly:

"Boss, the old man and my two nephews have finally returned to their hometown. It has been difficult to save some money for them to marry wives over the years. Can you allow the old man to give me some important news in exchange for letting me go?"

"Huh? Important news?"

The one-eyed dragon a few feet away looked at him with surprise and said with great interest:

"what news?"

Li Junxian said slowly:

"The old man and his nephew stayed at an inn in Tianyun Town two days ago. When they came back from the hut at night, the old man accidentally heard two people looking for some treasure. It sounded a bit weird."

Tianyun Town, treasure! ?

On horseback, the one-eyed dragon's expression changed, and an association instantly occurred.

Tianyun Town is a small town under the jurisdiction of Tianyun Mansion.

Tianyun Mansion was the capital of the Shengping Heavenly Kingdom more than twenty years ago.

There are rumors in the world that before the Jin Ting captured the Tianyun Mansion, the Holy King Chen Kequan had secretly sent his confidants to escort away a large amount of treasures worth millions of silver dollars and buried them in the mountains near the Tianyun Mansion for future revenge. Use.

After the fall of the Shengping Heavenly Kingdom, the Jin Army sent a large number of troops to search the mountains and plundered the land. However, they could not find it after several months. As a result, the news spread and triggered a wave of treasure hunting among the people in the following years.

He never thought that after such a long time, someone would still be looking for the treasure. The one-eyed dragon became very interested:

"Bring him here and talk carefully!"

The two horse bandits who were going to search immediately surrounded him. Li Junxian immediately raised his hands and walked forward unhurriedly.

Having understood Li Junxian's plan, Xi Beichen looked a little worried, but Lu Yuan looked like he was watching the show.

After all, even before he recovered from the injury, this master had martial arts strength at the peak of the Four Realms, and was by no means an easy person; now that he had mostly recovered from his internal injuries, although he could not return to his peak immediately, he could still deal with a horse bandit leader.

Soon, Li Junxian, whose aura was completely restrained and could not recognize his high martial arts skills, arrived in front of a group of horse bandits who were eyeing him eagerly.

"You said someone is looking for treasure in Tianyun Town!?"

The one-eyed dragon held a gun in one hand and a knife in the other, looked at him up and down, and asked impatiently:

"Tell me carefully what's going on!"

At this moment, the distance between the two sides was only ten feet. Li Jun raised his head first and smiled slowly: "Go back to the boss, let's talk to the two people."

Doom!

Suddenly, there was a loud sound like a drum.

In everyone's sight, Li Jun's decrepit figure suddenly rose up, and the air around him exploded with strong winds. His whole body was like a flaming meteor tearing through the sky, and he immediately rushed in front of the one-eyed dragon!

what! ?

Li Junxian's move was truly shocking. It was too sudden and violent, and a terrifying energy rushed towards his face. The one-eyed dragon's face changed wildly, and he had no time to shoot or draw a knife. He subconsciously dodged to the side in fear and anger.

Crack!

The box cannon in his hand was first crushed by Li Jun.

At the same time, Li Junxian's other hand had already firmly grasped his right shoulder. Under the terrifying force of the landslide and tsunami, there was an obvious sound of bone bursting on his shoulder, and then the whole person was lifted off the horse as if being caught by an eagle. Got caught!

"what--!"

In an instant, the shrill roar of pain resounded through the night sky. The one-eyed dragon, which had been so prosperous just now, was pulled off the horse by Li Jun in the blink of an eye and crashed to the ground, vomiting blood.

Behind, more than a dozen minions suddenly turned pale with fright, and they all raised their guns and cursed angrily:

"The old man is brave!!"

"Let go of our Lord Jiao, or you will die without a burial right away!"

Including the martial arts masters from the Zhen'an Escort Bureau in the station, they were dumbfounded and unbelievable when they saw this scene.

At this moment, Li Jun locked the one-eyed dragon's throat with one hand, snatched the big knife from his hand with the other hand, and lifted it up as a shield in front of him. He floated back and said lightly:

"Master Jiao, please let your subordinates be quiet."

At this time, the one-eyed dragon barely recovered from the severe pain in his shoulder and the shock in his heart, and immediately shouted with a ferocious expression:

"Shut up first!"

Then, he tilted his head slightly, with a rather ugly smile on his ferocious face:

"Master, we have never met before and we have no grievances. Why do you, a martial arts practitioner, pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger? As long as you tell me in advance, I will definitely retreat early. How can I let my men search for you? ?”

"We are all people who can't survive under Jin Ting's rule, so we come out to lick blood on the knife edge to make a living. Why do you do this?"

In just a moment, he clearly felt that this old man's terrifying martial arts cultivation was far better than his own who had just entered the realm of thunder, and he might have reached the fifth realm.

Normally, even if he had so many people and guns at his disposal, he would try to avoid provoking such people. Who would have thought that Li Jun could hide so deeply without revealing anything?

Still careless!

"How can green forest bandits like you be scared off with just a few words?"

Not mentioning the regret in his heart, Li Jun said calmly:

"One-eyed Jiao, they said that you are quite disciplined in your actions and are not a heinous person. I will not take your life. I will let you go if you ask your men to drop all their guns."

The one-eyed dragon, whose life depended on other people's thoughts, had no other choice, so he immediately turned around and shouted:

"Did you hear that? Throw all your guns away from me, quickly!"

More than twenty horse bandits looked at each other.

And because this team was entirely raised by the one-eyed dragon and had high prestige, they only hesitated briefly before dropping their muskets on the ground.

This also made the one-eyed dragon breathe a sigh of relief: "Master, is this all right?"

Li Jun didn't speak at first, but Lu Yuan and Xi Beichen had already stepped forward, quickly picked up all the muskets on the ground, and then took them back to the inn.

At this time, Li Jun nodded: "Very good."

With that said, he held the one-eyed dragon hostage and retreated to the wall, letting it go.

The one-eyed dragon staggered with his teeth bared, turned around and covered his dislocated shoulder, and hurriedly ran towards his men, taking three steps at a time and then two steps at a time.

After two of the horse bandit's confidants stepped forward to support him, he turned around and shouted uncertainly:

"There is no way to know someone without fighting. I was defeated by the one-eyed dragon when I fell into your hands. I wonder what your surname is?"

Li Jun first smiled but said:

"Why, is it possible that you are planning to take revenge again?"

"Your Majesty, you are joking. I am not good at my own tricks. I can't blame others."

Although there was resentment in his heart, the one-eyed dragon still held up his hands in a bachelor and wise manner and begged:

"Those guns are the foundation of our brothers' livelihood. Can you give us some back?"

Li Jun pondered for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Okay, I'll leave the musket in the inn. You can send someone to pick it up tomorrow morning after we leave."

The one-eyed dragon, who didn't have much hope at first, was immediately overjoyed:

"Thank you, thank you very much for your mercy!"

At this point, both parties have reached a consensus.

Then the one-eyed dragon waved his hand, shouted loudly, and turned around and left with the horse bandits.

Under the cover of night, looking at the figures of these people leaving in despair, Xi Beichen stepped forward with hesitation in his eyes:

"Uncle, do you really want to return these guns to them tomorrow morning?"

"return."

Li Jun first agreed very simply:

"This group of horse bandits has some rules. If you destroy these muskets, it will undoubtedly be a deadly enemy. Unless you kill them all just now, there may be more trouble later. Your master is still waiting. It is not appropriate for us to cause unnecessary problems now."

Older gingers are more spicy.

Xi Beichen suddenly understood, while Lu Yuan nodded in his mind.

There were so many horse bandits here just now, and some of them may have hidden muskets but not handed them over. In addition, it was dark at night. Li Junxian and Xi Beichen alone were really unable to annihilate all the enemies.

No one knows how many people this group of horse bandits have. If someone slips through the trap and goes back to recruit friends and bring more people, it will turn into a bigger trouble.

And Lin Xingchao is still waiting for his life in Jinjin. In this case, there is no need to take the risk.

Of course, it would be easy for Lu Yuan to destroy this group of horse bandits if he really showed his methods, but on the one hand, it would be difficult to use the earth magic technique under the eyes of so many people. On the other hand, as Li Junxian said, this group of horse bandits are quite well-behaved. Even if they are all slaughtered, the power vacuum left will be quickly filled by other horse bandits, which will be even worse.

In today's world, I have to say that this is also a kind of helplessness.

"Three, three."

While the three masters and disciples were talking, the bearded martial artist Hu who led the Zhen'an Escort Bureau on the other side came forward excitedly and respectfully, saluting Li Jun first:

"Thank you for driving away this group of thieves. Please accept my compliments!" "You're welcome."

Li Jun first said:

"They will come again early tomorrow morning. You'd better leave before dawn. You should be able to avoid being robbed."

After simply dealing with these people.

The three of them returned to the drafty hall of the inn to rest, with Lu Yuan and Xi Beichen taking turns keeping watch.

The martial arts masters of the Zhen'an Escort Bureau did not dare to be careless at all. Eight of them went out to watch in turns, fearing that the one-eyed dragon and others would sneak in all night long.

They originally wanted to buy some horse bandit muskets from Li Junxian for self-defense, but they gave up because they had no ammunition and couldn't use them.

Fortunately, a fifth-level martial arts master was very intimidating, and after one night, the one-eyed dragon and other horse bandits did not dare to show up again.

And wait until the horizon becomes faintly white.

The martial artists from the Zhen'an Escort said goodbye in advance, took their goods and took a different route to leave the inn.

Li Junxian and others who were in a hurry also followed closely behind. When the sky was bright, they packed up their things and left the inn to start their journey again.

Of course, in order to prevent the One-Eyed Jiao group from catching up after getting the muskets, Xi Beichen filled the barrels of all the long and short muskets with water. They could not be used without drying them for three or four days.

In fact, the One-Eyed Dragon and the others did curse loudly after they got the muskets back, but they were very smart and had no intention of pursuing them from the beginning to the end.

After all, the more aggressive and impulsive people in their profession are, the faster they will die.

Moreover, a fifth-level martial artist was difficult to deal with, and he really didn't want to take the risk.

In short, Lu Yuan and others successfully passed through such a small storm and continued running along like a race against time.

After another two consecutive days of trekking.

Noon on the third day.

At this moment, the wind is strong, the sky is high and the clouds are indifferent.

Above the official road, Lu Yuan and the other three people, who were covered in dust, could clearly see the shadow of a magnificent city in the distance, with a vast sea river flowing past it, sparkling and endless.

It was Jinjin, the important coastal city of Zhili in the Jin Dynasty!

After running at high speed for two or three quarters of an hour, the three of them arrived at the gate of Jinjin City.

The city wall, which is more than three feet high, stands tall and weathered, and looks extremely solemn.

In the middle of the city wall, a huge city gate stands. There is a lot of traffic in front of the gate. There are teams of powerful guards setting up checkpoints. A large number of people, motorcades, and horse teams gather here and pour in, indicating the prosperity of this place.

Lu Yuan glanced at it, but didn't have much reaction.

After all, he is a modern person and has long been accustomed to the sky-high buildings and prosperity in big cities. Although the Jinjin in front of him is far more prosperous than Fengyang Mansion, it is not enough to surprise him.

Jinjin is a commercial center, and anyone who brings goods into the city must pay an entry tax. Lu Yuan and others entered the city through the small gate with nothing but packages.

After passing through the thick city gate, the sight suddenly opens up. The bluestone streets are very spacious, and the attic buildings on both sides are row upon row, showing the prosperity.

As we go deeper into the city, there are crowds of people everywhere. Horseback riding is allowed on the city's avenues, but running is not allowed. Under the leadership of Xi Beichen, Li Junxian's master and apprentice controlled the horse speed and followed behind, while Lu Yuan scanned the surroundings with interest. Everything, you can experience the obviously different customs and customs of this big city of Zhili and Fengyang Mansion.

The most intuitive and obvious difference is that in addition to common Jin Dynasty clothing such as commoner blouses and long robes and mandarin jackets on the streets of Jinjin, there are also sporadic Han Chinese wearing new Western clothing!

Most of these people were young people who were obviously influenced by new trends of thought. They wore leather shoes, suits and short hair. Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel as if he was in a trance when they were speeding past on a rickshaw.

Moreover, he also discovered that in addition to the sporadic people wearing new clothes, many pedestrians could be seen on the street without their ugly money rat tails and swaggering through the streets with messy short hair.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but ask: "Senior Brother Xi, here in Jinjin, the imperial court no longer cares about shaving one's hair and changing clothes?"

Xi Beichen, eager to return home, sneered and replied:

"Jinting would like to take charge of it, but unfortunately he doesn't have the ability. Now nearly a quarter of Jinjin's territory has been ceded as a concession to the Shinra powers, and now another part of it has to be ceded to the Japanese pirates of Rizhao Kingdom to become a state within a state. .

Nowadays, foreigners are very powerful here, and Jin Ting's influence has long been reduced to its minimum. Not to mention shaving one's hair and changing clothes, they can't control all kinds of smuggling, associations, religious establishments, gang fights, etc. among the people. Come, that’s why we use Jinjin as a base for development. "

"I see."

Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.

If according to what Xi Beichen said, then this is really a very suitable place for him to develop.

With various thoughts running through my mind, I rode horseback all the way.

Jinjin has a population of over one million. The situation in the city is complex and can be divided into the outer city, the inner city and even the concession. The outer city occupies more than 70% of the area and is mainly populated by civilians and poor people. There are poor and beggars everywhere. Seeing corpses floating in the river and even in the corners, it seemed chaotic;

After traveling this distance and entering the inner city, the situation is different. The business here is prosperous, the residences are all owned by wealthy families and even dignitaries, and the environment and security are far better than those in the outer city in all aspects.

On the Bluestone Avenue here, Lu Yuan even saw a black-smoking, crude and crude steam car passing by on the street, with two blond, blue-eyed, proud foreigners sitting on it.

Needless to say, both the cars and the people must have come from the concessions of the Shinra powers.

The concession of the HRE powers was a heavily guarded state within a state, with churches, factories, guild halls, etc. Without the permission of the HRE powers, Jin Dynasty people from the inner and outer cities were not allowed to enter, regardless of their status.

that's it.

Full of surprise, Xi Beichen led master and apprentice Lu Yuan to the back door of a secluded house outside the inner city.

He nervously knocked on the door at a unique frequency. A moment later, a rush of footsteps sounded inside, and then Gu Yourong, with red and swollen eyes, appeared at the door and said in surprise:

"Brother and uncle, you are finally here!"

This tone made Li Junxian and Xi Beichen feel relieved. Li Junxian immediately asked:

"Where is your master? Take me there quickly!"

"Uncle, come with me!"

Without saying a word, Gu Yourong led the three of them into the backyard and then to a secluded room.

Li Jun walked quickly into the room first, and saw Lin Xingchao on the bed with a bloodless face and a haggard appearance. His upper body was covered with bandages, and one of his left arms was broken at shoulder level. He did not live up to his demeanor from half a year ago.

Hearing the movement, Lin Xingchao turned his head with great difficulty, revealing a joyful yet extremely weak voice:

"Senior brother, A Yuan, you are here."

"Lie down and don't talk."

Li Jun quickly stepped forward to the bedside, held his other hand, and smiled instead:

"You old boy are not dead yet, you are indeed very lucky!"

Lin Xingchao seemed to be returning to the light, but he was full of energy and said with a smile:

"That's not true. The moment the old witch shot at me, I almost thought I was going to die. I didn't expect that I could barely escape. It's a pity that the witch was so powerful. The palm she hit me was already damaged. My heart is broken and there is no cure. I estimate that I will go to see Master and the Holy King in the next two days, so I can see you, senior brother, before I leave."

"Before I leave, you old boy are lucky, you won't die this time!"

However, facing Lin Xingchao, whose life had begun to show signs of death and whose fire of life seemed to be extinguished at any moment, Li Jun laughed out loud:

"Yourong, go get me a bowl of well water immediately. I have a way to save your master!"

what?

In addition to Lu Yuan in the room, Lin Xingchao, master and disciple were all stunned, while Gu Yourong and Xi Beichen were overflowing with surprise and said as if in a dream:

"Master, are you serious about what you said!?"

"Of course!"

Li Junxian quickly said:

"A Yuan met an incredible man by chance, and got two magical healing medicines called Yubaihuan Dan from his hand. I had a secret disease that I had visited many famous doctors but could not be cured, but after taking this medicine, I could not be cured. He was mostly healed immediately.

I only took one of this healing pill, and I brought another one in my hand, just in time for your master to take. Not only did he fully recover after taking this medicine, he would have no problem living for another ten or twenty years! Go get the well water quickly! "

After the words fell, the two senior brothers Xi Beichen and Gu Yourong were stunned for a moment, and then rushed out of the house without saying a word to get water from the well.

Lin Xingchao, who was extremely weak, stared blankly, darting back and forth between Li Junxian and Lu Yuan:

"Senior brother, how can there be such a magical elixir in the world? Are you trying to trick me?"

Li Jun first smiled and said: "You will know soon after eating it whether it is useful or not?"

Lu Yuan also helped: "Uncle, you are in this situation, how can my master make up random things to entertain you? That elixir is indeed magical and will definitely cure your serious injuries."

While talking.

Outside the house, Xi Beichen and the two men had already fetched a bucket of well water and poured it into a bowl.

Under their extremely expectant gazes, Li Junxian had already taken out the medicine box from his arms, carefully cut off one third of it with the prepared wooden knife, and blended it into the bowl of well water.

After mixing it thoroughly, he immediately handed the bowl to Gu Yourong:

"This medicine should be taken in three doses. Feed this bowl to your master first, and then wait for the medicine to take effect."

Xi Beichen immediately stepped forward, carefully lifted up Lin Xingchao's upper body, and then asked Gu Yourong to feed him.

Because his lungs and intestines were cracked and even breathing was painful, Lin Xingchao drank the well water with great difficulty and slowness, and then slowly lay down.

Including Lu Yuan, everyone stared at each other without blinking, especially Xi Beichen and Gu Yourong. The knuckles of their hands turned white and they even oozed blood without even realizing it.

And about half an hour passed after lying down.

Lying quietly, Lin Xingchao's face gradually turned red. He suddenly opened his eyes, and his weak eyes were full of shock:

"Brother, this, this medicine!?"
