A master of supernatural powers who started from low martial arts

Chapter 90 Man and Dog

From Gu Yourong's mouth, Lu Yuan learned about a piece of the past that Li Jun had never mentioned before.

It turns out that the woman just now is Gu Yunsheng, the daughter of the former head coach of the Shengping Sect, Tou Gu Kanshan. She had a relationship with Li Junxian many years ago when they were in Tianyun Mansion.

But the turning point was when Tianyun Mansion was conquered by the Jin army. Li Jun was seriously injured after the battle to break the city, leaving behind incurable hidden diseases, and his martial arts also declined as a result.

Under the double blow, he was disheartened and did not want to drag down Gu Yunsheng. After he was almost healed, he left a letter and left without saying goodbye, completely severing the relationship.

Gu Yunsheng also waited for several years, but when there was no hope, he had to marry someone else. However, his fate was rough. The husband he married died in the pursuit of the Jin army after only a few years of getting along. Among them, she became a widow again.

From this point of view, the two people's experiences also have some tragic feelings of ill-fate.

"Junior Brother Lu."

Gu Yourong looked back with expectation and whispered:

"Aunt Sheng is alone now, and my uncle seems to have never forgotten our past friendship just now. Do you think it's possible?"

Xi Beichen scolded: "Junior sister, don't talk nonsense!"

Lu Yuan also moved his eyes and said with a smile:

"It's not easy to guess. It still depends on the two elders' own thoughts."

Although no one said it clearly, he vaguely guessed that the master was probably injured because of his injuries, which affected humanity or the inheritance of the family line, and he left alone without saying goodbye that year.

But now that Li Jun has taken the mixed Yu Bai Huan Dan first, this hidden disease should also be cured. As long as he takes good care of himself, he will most likely be able to recover as before.

If the biggest problem is solved, there is no doubt that this pair will really have the possibility of continuing their relationship.

"makes sense."

After all, two elders were involved, so Gu Yourong couldn't say much, so he had to keep his mouth shut.

The three of them waited outside for a long time.

Almost an hour later, the door of the house opened, and Mr. Li Jun and his daughter Gu Kanshan walked out of the house.

Xi Beichen and Gu Yourong immediately came forward: "Master Gu, Aunt Sheng, are you leaving?"

Gu Yunsheng nodded lightly: "Your master's injury has just improved and he needs to rest peacefully, so we will go back first. We will buy some food and wine later and hold a banquet here to entertain Master Qin and the others."

Xi Beichen said ashamedly: "What I'm saying is that my uncle and the others came all the way to rescue my master yesterday, but now they haven't even had a decent meal. I'm really sorry."

Li Jun didn't take it seriously at first: "Things have their own priorities, there is no need to talk about it."

The head coach of the Shengping Sect, Tou Gu Kanshan, was focusing entirely on Lu Yuan at the moment, his eyes becoming more and more surprised:

"Li Zi, I wanted to ask you before, is this kid really your apprentice?"

Li Jun first smiled and said: "Master Gu, can this be false?"

"Dragon sinews and tiger bones, skin as white as jade, and divine light within, this is a rare martial arts genius."

Gu Kanshan looked at Lu Yuan closely as if looking at some rare treasure, and said with surprise and jealousy:

"How did you get such bad luck to find such a good apprentice? Master Gu, I still don't have a decent apprentice, why don't you give me this apprentice? Although I am old, I still have a martial arts master. , should be qualified to teach him."

"Xing Chao said that someone rescued him from the palace. It should be you, Mr. Gu?"

Knowing it was a joke, Li Jun didn't worry about it and said with a smile:

"Master Gu is interested in A Yuan's submission. As long as he is willing, I will not stop him from switching to your sect."

Gu Kanshan was obviously moved, but he still sighed:

"Forget it, a gentleman won't take away someone's love. If such a rare apprentice is robbed, you will have to vomit blood when you go back. But you have come all the way here, are you really going to leave tomorrow?"

Gu Yunsheng looked at him with a faint gaze, and Li Jun shook his head slightly in avoidance:

"Xing Chao is no longer in danger, and I can't make any difference if I stay here. The key is that there are still some unresolved matters at Fengyang Mansion, so it's better to go back as soon as possible."

Not knowing this situation, Xi Beichen was suddenly shocked:

"Master, uncle, you are leaving so soon? But you have come all the way and have only stayed here for one night. Why do you want us to entertain you as landlords for a few days and take a good stroll in Jinjin City?"

Gu Yunsheng also said softly: "Brother Li, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years. This is your first time coming to Jinjin. Can't you stay a few more days?"

Li Jun felt a little moved at first, but fell into hesitation:

"The main reason is that I still have a powerful enemy in Fengyang Mansion. I'm worried that over time he will be detrimental to Dahu and Erhu."

Lu Yuan, who knew that Lei Huating had become a dead ghost long ago, helped:

"Master, there is no need to worry too much. Lei Haojie was seriously injured and needs to be taken care of. Lei Huating should not be able to spare any time in a short time. Plus, with Gang Leader Pang taking care of him, it shouldn't be a problem to go back a day or two late."

Li Jun, who seemed to be convinced, couldn't help but look at Gu Yunsheng, his eyes immediately retreated, he took a deep breath and said:

"That's true. Then we will stay an extra day tomorrow and return the day after tomorrow."

Although there was only one extra day, it was still more time to get along. The rest of the people had barely achieved their goal, and everyone was happy.

Ever since.

After Gukanshan's father and daughter left.

In the afternoon, Li Jun, who no longer needed to pay attention to Lin Xingchao's condition, returned to his room to recuperate. Lu Yuan could not go out alone and spent his free time meditating in his room.

And after evening.

Gu Kanshan and his daughter came to visit with two large food boxes, and then set up a rather sumptuous banquet in front of Lin Xingchao's bed, which was regarded as a welcome blessing for Li Jun.

But that night, except for Lin Xingchao who couldn't drink, all the old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years had mixed feelings, drank and talked about the past.

Lu Yuan and other juniors were completely speechless and sat with them like background boards, but they also had a deeper understanding of the Shengping Heavenly Kingdom and even that period of history of war, blood and fire.

When it comes to the depth of love, not to mention Li Jun's predecessor Lin Xingchao, even the ancient master who has gone through many vicissitudes of life has his eyes slightly red, thinking about his past experiences and the passing brother Paoze.

Lu Yuan also learned from this that although the Shengping Heavenly Kingdom was destroyed, there were not a few people who inherited the legacy or inheritance of the Holy King Chen Kequan and even the Eight Heavenly Kings under his command. These people have been active in Jinjin, Magic City, Guangdong and other places. , and secretly developed and cultivated manpower, hoping to one day completely overthrow Jin Ting's rule and restore the Shengping Heavenly Kingdom.

Of course, after so many years, the remaining members of the Shengping Heavenly Kingdom have also become divided. Some are just grateful for the kindness of the Holy King and the dire straits of the people, and want to overthrow Jin Ting; some are ambitious and just use the name of the remaining members of the Shengping Heavenly Kingdom. Under the banner of seeking personal gain and seeking hegemony.

After learning this information, Lu Yuan also began to think about what he should do during the banquet in order to gain a lot of luck and cultivate his own power at the same time.

After all, changing the dynasty and rebuilding the world is not something that can be accomplished by simply killing Demon Queen Xici. He must first have a set of ideas and programs that can be accepted and desired by the vast majority of ordinary people, and then use this to gather talents, manage territory, produce money and food, develop industry, and so on.

Of course, even in a world with some extraordinary power, achieving this level requires great talent and a lot of time and energy.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan had the unique power of the Seventy-Two Earthly Demon Techniques, so he had the opportunity to overtake others in a corner and establish a force that could sweep the world faster than Zhang Jiao in ancient times or Chen Kequan in this world.

in his thoughts.

A simple banquet lasted until nearly the second watch.

Although they drank several large jars of wine, these drinks are nothing to martial arts practitioners, especially Gu Kanshan, who is already a martial arts master, but his face is slightly drunk, and his old face is full of contentment. , took Gu Yunsheng away.

After seeing the two of them off, Li Jun returned to the room with Lu Yuan's support.

Although he could tell that Li Junxian and Gu Yunsheng had an unusual relationship, he didn't point it out and just pretended that he didn't know about it.

Just like that, the night passed.

Early the next morning.

Gukanshan father and daughter came to visit again.

Today is Li Jun's last day here. Last night they had agreed to have a good time in Jinjin today.

Of course, from Lu Yuan's point of view, this seemed to be Gu Kanshan's intention to bring Li Junxian and his daughter together.

After everyone had breakfast together.

Gu Yourong was still responsible for staying behind to look after Lin Xingchao. Master and apprentice Lu Yuan, Gu Kanshan, his daughter, and Xi Beichen walked out of the yard to the street, and summoned many rickshaws with a casual move.

Before getting on the bus, Xi Beichen asked: "Uncle, there are only a few famous places in the city. Where do you want to go first?"

Li Jun pondered for a moment: "Then let's go to the Dagukou Fort first."

Dagukou Fort was a defense fort built by Jinting after the first Shinra invasion war to prevent the powerful armored ships of the Shinra from invading the port, and it was heavily guarded.

However, during the second HRE invasion, this fort did play a role in resisting the great powers at the beginning. The artillery bombardment forced dozens of armored ships of the HRE powers to be unable to approach.

But later, the Shinra powers dispatched more advanced steam airships, blowing up the forts with absolute air superiority. Then the fleet drove straight into the controlled port, and the invading army landed and approached the capital of Jin, creating the shocking shame of bombing the palace.

After the war, Jin Ting signed an unequal treaty. The Shinra powers not only established a concession in Jinjin and expanded their missionary power, but even the Dagukou Fort, which had been reduced to ruins, was not allowed to be rebuilt by Jin Ting.

Therefore, this place has become a shame and scar for all Han people in Jinjin and even the 36 provinces of China. Anyone with a patriotic heart will definitely come here to see it when they come to Jinjin.

Soon, a few relatively strong rickshaw pullers pulled Lu Yuan and others along the end of the joint alley, while Lu Yuan silently observed around during the bumpy journey.

Like Fengyang Mansion, after leaving the relatively bright and beautiful inner city, most of the houses in the streets of the outer city are dilapidated and messy, and beggars can be seen everywhere.

In addition, there are quite a lot of martial arts schools with various brands in both the inner and outer cities. After only a few miles in the car, he saw four or five martial arts schools of different sizes, which shows that Jin Jin is very good at martial arts. The style of martial arts is still strong.

In addition, he also saw scattered opium dens that were openly opened, with plaques hung so ostentatiously, and the smoke from the doors even floated to the street.

According to what the coachman said, the opium dens that dare to open openly now are basically people related to the foreigners in the concession, and the government is also afraid of them and turns a blind eye.

Watching with such cold eyes.

The coachman ran for more than half an hour before finally arriving near the estuary east of Jinjin.

On a high ground, several coachmen sat on the ground to rest, gasping for air.

Under the humid sea breeze, Li Jun first got out of the car and then stepped forward to look up. It was obvious that there were ruins of forts along the coast, as well as densely packed black pits, indicating the tragedy of the war that year.

"When the Dagukou fort was destroyed, it was also the time when we, under the leadership of the Holy King, were attacking the city and seizing the territory. The fire was in full swing and the sun was at its peak."

Gu Kanshan sighed and said:

"Who knew that things would become like this in just twenty or thirty years."

Looking at the sea and sky, Li Jun was silent at first, and then asked after a long while:

"I heard that the concession of the Shinra powers is not far from here?"

"It's just over ten miles."

Xi Beichen beckoned with understanding, and the extra reward of two silver dollars per person made the coachmen and coolies who had not yet completely rested burst out with great enthusiasm, and once again pulled everyone to the vicinity of the concession.

The so-called concession is actually an urban area isolated by high walls and iron grids.

The city is located on both sides of the Haihe River that passes through the city. It is the most elite location in the huge Jinjin, but now it has become a country within a country for the powerful Shinra.

It can be vaguely seen that the streets in the Shinra Concession are neat, with various Western-style buildings on both sides.

Outside every entrance avenue of the concession, a large number of vendors and even beggars gathered. Whenever a blond, well-dressed Shinra man came out in a rickshaw or steam locomotive, they would swarm them, vigorously selling or begging.

At this time, Han policemen carrying guns and wearing unique uniforms would come up and yell at them to drive them away.

Including this moment.

Lu Yuan and others stopped on the opposite side of the road and looked into the distance. When the patrol officers found out, they stepped forward arrogantly and shouted:

"Gungun, this is not a place for you to visit!"

"Stay away from me. If you disturb the foreign adults inside, I won't let you eat and walk around!"

The driver of the cart hurriedly drove Lu Yuan and others forward. It was the first time he saw Li Jun, a country within a country like the concession, with a slightly ugly look on his face.

Especially if we go more than ten miles further.

On the outskirts of another city, a large group of scrawny coolies with pigtails were building high walls and weaving iron nets under the scorching sun.

At the same time, nearby, a group of short, fierce-looking soldiers wearing new military uniforms were holding whips and shouting and cursing in an unknown language.

Behind him, on the tower that had just been built recently, there were clearly posted a few slanted characters:

People and dogs are not allowed to enter the Jin Dynasty!
