'okay.'

Zhang Lingshan checked the panel and saw that he had already mastered the Hongyun sword technique.

I felt the changes in my body, but found that the changes in muscle strength and other aspects were very small, only my knife skills had become much more skillful.

Firstly, it may be because I have already trained my body, and a breakthrough at the entry level will not have much effect.

Secondly, the Hongyun swordsmanship is mainly for training skills rather than strength.

After all, not all martial arts can be compared with the Mountain-Splitting Axe Technique, and it only costs a mere 20 energy points, so what else do you want?

After continuing to practice the Hongyun sword technique for a while, and after he had completely adapted and comprehended it, Zhang Lingshan wrapped up the thick-backed wide sword.

Then he returned to the room and took out a booklet with a dark green cover.

It was none other than the one obtained from Fang Qiuyue.

After learning to read from his younger brother Zhang Lingfeng during the Chinese New Year, Zhang Lingshan can already recognize most of the words in the booklet.

Unfortunately, I was busy refining meat and testing medicinal herbs, and I forgot about this matter.

When he remembered, his brother had already returned to the Jiang family in the inner city.

Now starting to read the book again, Zhang Lingshan picked out the words he didn't know and wrote them down, then found Song Dazhuang and asked him to take him to meet the Song family's teacher.

Because I had made arrangements with Song Dazhuang before the New Year, there was no delay and I met the teacher soon.

Under the guidance of the teacher, Zhang Lingshan learned the remaining characters one by one.

That night, he read by lamplight and benefited a lot from it. It was worth his hurried study that day.

In the early morning of the next day, everything was ready. Zhang Lingshan arrived at the door of Zhenwei Escort Agency carrying his package and weapons.

"so many people?"

Zhang Lingshan was slightly stunned.

The key point is not that there are too many people, but that he found there are many young people in the crowd, both men and women, all of whom are full of youth and playing around with laughter.

It feels like they are going on a picnic instead of a escort mission.

"Senior Brother Shan is here."

Lu Feng stepped forward and greeted him.

Zhang Lingshan asked, "Are you going this time too?"

Lu Feng chuckled, "Yes, thanks to you, my Third Grandfather is here to protect us, so we can be sure that nothing will go wrong. If we don't follow him and learn more, wouldn't it be a waste of his skills?"

Zhang Lingshan suddenly realized: "So, this escort mission is a loss, and you are protecting me. Then I will accept a great favor from your third grandfather."

"no."

An old voice suddenly sounded beside him: "I owe Hong Zhengdao this, it has nothing to do with you."

Zhang Lingshan was so surprised that he didn't even notice the other person coming behind him.

He looked back and saw a sturdy old man with a scar from top to bottom on his right eye. His pupil was white and he was actually blind in one eye.

"Meet Master Lu San."

Zhang Lingshan bowed in greeting.

Lu Sandao stared at him quietly with his left eye, and said after a while: "With a solid foundation and full of energy, Hong Zhengdao has accepted a good disciple. Can you ride a horse?"

“Never.”

"Then while the team is still assembled, Lu Feng, you teach him."

"Yes, Third Grandpa."

Lu Feng immediately invited Zhang Lingshan to his yard and briefly taught him some experience in horse riding.

As a flesh-training warrior, Zhang Lingshan already had a certain level of control over his body muscles, so he learned it in no time.

Just then, Lei Bao and Lei Tao also arrived.

"Is this the person you want to bring?" Lu Sandao asked.

Zhang Lingshan said, "Help me find my father at Jinguang Temple."

"I've met senior!"

Lei Bao pulled Lei Tao and hurriedly saluted. He was shocked that the famous senior Lu Sandao was invited to this trip.

This is a veteran Yi Jin master.

With him in charge, this trip is safe and there will be no mistakes. They only need to lead the way to Jinguang Temple.

"Well, let's go."

Lu Sandao waved his hand, and a middle-aged muscular man from the Lu family led the team forward.

This man is called Lu Fang, and he is the leader of this escort team.

After walking for a while, a long team had been formed, so two escorts were replaced to walk in front and lead the way, while the escort leader Lu Fang sat in the middle.

Behind him were Lu Feng and other young people from the Lu family who were looking for new experiences. They looked left and right, curious about everything outside the city.

The last of these young people was Lu Sandao.

The fat old man was taciturn. He rode his horse and followed the team without saying a word.

Zhang Lingshan followed beside him, not in the mood to talk. Instead, he rode his horse while carefully pondering the words in Fang Qiuyue's booklet in his mind.

"Inside the pylorus is the Netherworld; deep inside the Netherworld is the Netherworld... All strange and evil spirits are Yin spirits and should go to the Netherworld..."

Zhang Lingshan pondered for a moment, "When Fang Qiuyue tried to kill me, she said that she would wait until I turned into an evil spirit and let Li Ziming absorb it. This means that they have a way to absorb evil spirits. Is this what they mean by calling themselves the Netherworld?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Lingshan couldn't help but get excited.

If I could also learn this method of absorbing evil spirits, and then directly suck them in to suppress and refine them, wouldn't the energy increase rapidly?

But how to open the Nether Palace?

Zhang Lingshan fell into deep thought.

The so-called pylorus, these two words seem mysterious at first glance, but if you add these three words, it becomes familiar.

Helicobacter pylori, who doesn’t know about it?

The pylorus is the site where the stomach and duodenum connect.

According to Fang Qiuyue's booklet, entering the pylorus and opening the Nether Palace refers to this place.

However, the booklet did not say how to open it, it only said that "people with spirits will open it themselves, and people without spirits cannot enter." So, am I a person with spirits or a person without spirits?

"Forget it, since there is no way to open it, let's use the stupid method."

Zhang Lingshan thought about it and decided to develop a method on his own.

Now we are exercising our muscles, so we can sensitively control the small muscles in various parts of the body. The pyloric sphincter, as a checkpoint to prevent the reflux of intestinal contents, also has a sphincter.

So if we place our hand on the skin at the location corresponding to the pylorus and press, can we try to control the sphincter inside?

Zhang Lingshan tried it.

This turned out to be a fantasy.

But there is another way, using the fire of Hunyuan Zhengyang Pillar, maybe the pylorus can be burned open.

The fire of Hunyuan Zhengyang Posture is an invisible fire that can eliminate evil spirits.

What if such a mysterious fire burns the pylorus?

Zhang Lingshan didn't hesitate when he thought of this, and immediately performed the Hunyuan Zhengyang Posture with the Yang Embracing Position.

Hu Hu Hu.

In an instant, heat rose in my body.

"Ok?"

Lu Sandao suddenly turned his head to look at Zhang Lingshan, but did not find anything unusual. He just thought that this young man was really hardworking. He secretly envied Hong Zhengdao for picking up such a good seedling.

One day flies by in a blink of an eye.

The Zhenwei Escort Agency was obviously familiar with the route, and they arrived at a village in the evening. "The Zhenwei Escort Agency is here!"

Someone shouted.

Then people from all directions quickly came to help everyone lead the horses. Everything was in order. It was obvious that this road was often used and the villagers were counting on them to spend money here.

“There’s actually a village here.”

Lu Feng was surprised and said, "It seems that the outside is not as dangerous as we imagined."

"Haha." A middle-aged escort next to him smiled, "Danger is always relative. If everyone is in danger, then everyone in this world will die. There will always be those who are inexperienced and disobedient who die for those who are more experienced and listen to others' advice. And our Zhenwei Escort Agency is one of those that are more experienced and listen to others' advice."

Another escort agent asked, "Then the question is, where does the experience come from?"

"Experience is the correct path that has been verified through many times. Do you understand, young master? This is the wealth of our Zhenwei Escort Agency."

The escort said earnestly.

Lu Feng nodded, not quite understanding, but not dwelling on it. He immediately went to chat with the young people in his family.

Anyway, Third Grandpa is in charge of everything, so I don’t need to worry at all.

That night.

The doors and windows of the inn were closed and the lights were on. No matter how chaotic the situation was outside, everything inside was safe and sound.

"It seems to be the same as in Jincheng. As long as you keep the doors and windows closed and don't go out to seek death, the evil spirits won't be able to get in."

Zhang Lingshan said secretly.

And based on his previous experience with Li Fu, he found that evil spirits actually don't like to run around.

For example, Li Fu always stayed at home and would only cause trouble for himself when he returned to his old house, but would not rush to Hongwu Street to hunt him down.

Therefore, as long as no one has died unjustly in the inn and there are no evil spirits hiding in it, it is basically impossible for evil spirits to appear.

Just as Zhang Lingshan expected, the night passed peacefully.

The next day.

Zhang Lingshan grabbed Lei Tao and asked, "Your father brought people to repair the Jinguang Temple, and there was no escort from the escort agency. How far can he run? We walked for a whole day yesterday, why haven't we seen the Jinguang Temple yet? Do you know where the Jinguang Temple is?"

Lei Tao said quickly, "Don't worry, Master Zhang. Although my father doesn't have an escort agency, he has been taking jobs outside for many years and is very experienced. As far as I know, Jinguang Temple is at least two days away."

"Two days? Is the direction correct?" Zhang Lingshan asked again.

Lei Tao hesitated and said, "The direction... seems... right."

"You really don't know the location of the Golden Light Temple!"

"No no no..."

Lei Tao explained nervously, but not a single sentence made sense.

Lei Bao on the side said hurriedly: "Master Zhang, calm down. We followed you this time to help you find your father. Don't worry, we will never go back until we complete the mission."

"It would be great if I could find it."

Zhang Lingshan left these words with a heavy heart.

If I can't even find the Jinguang Temple this time, then my trip would be in vain, and I would have wasted the favor owed to Lu Sandao.

Because he was not in a good mood, Zhang Lingshan did not say a word on the rest of the way, and silently used fire to burn the pylorus in his body.

Soon, it was night again. This time there was no inn in the village, but there was a mountain temple.

Everyone quickly went in and repaired the broken windows, doors and all the holes in the roof, then lit the straw and firewood to make a fire and stayed there for the night.

During this period, Zhang Lingshan soaked a packet of medicinal powder in hot water, called Deer Antler and Atractylodes Powder.

This medicine powder is not cost-effective. It costs 30 taels of silver for one set and can only increase 10 energy points. Moreover, you can only drink one set every two days. It is far inferior to the Santang Astragalus Decoction.

But the advantage is that it can be carried with you and is easy to brew. After all, there is no time to boil Sandang Astragalus Soup while escorting.

"What medicine did you take? Do you have kidney deficiency?"

Lu Sandao looked at Zhang Lingshan in surprise.

"No, just a little..."

Without waiting for Zhang Lingshan to explain, Lu Sandao said meaningfully: "Young people should exercise moderation."

After saying that, he lay down on the ground and fell into a deep sleep.

Zhang Lingshan was speechless.

I didn't expect that a taciturn fat old man like you could joke.

"hiss--!"

In the middle of the night, a long horse neigh suddenly came from outside the house.

Everyone suddenly woke up, and Lv Feng and other young people looked at each other in shock, with horror in their eyes: "What's wrong? Who is shouting?"

"Is there something strange coming? Didn't they say that they are experienced and there is no danger?"

"Woo woo woo, if I had known I wouldn't have come."

A young girl said in a crying voice.

"Shut up!"

Lu Sandao let out a low cry, then pricked up his ears.

I heard a heavy panting sound outside, followed by a horse screaming, and then the sound of something being pulled on the ground.

Wait until the sound disappears completely.

Lu Sandao said, "It's not something weird or evil, it's just a monster that's hungry and stole the horses. I'll kill it tomorrow and let you all learn something new. Continue to sleep, there's nothing to be afraid of. You'll all follow me on the escort mission in the future, but you're so scared by a monster, what a waste!"

After cursing, he fell asleep.

However, Lu Feng and other young people couldn't sleep. They looked at each other, no longer having the happy mood they had before for an outing.

But at the same time, curiosity arose in my heart.

In the past, they had only heard people in the escort agency talk about monsters, and had occasionally eaten monster meat, but they had never seen a real living monster.

Tomorrow, Third Grandpa will lead us to hunt monsters, and we can finally see a living one!

When Zhang Lingshan heard that he was going to hunt monsters, he was delighted.

I have been eating ordinary animal meat these past two days, and my energy points are accumulated very slowly. If I had monster meat to eat, the accumulation speed would be greatly accelerated.

The next day, early in the morning.

When I opened the door, I saw that one of the horses was missing, and a trail of blood was being dragged all the way up the mountain.

Lu Sandao asked the escort leader Lu Fang to take some escorts to stay in the mountain temple to guard the things, and then he took the lead, leading Zhang Lingshan, Lei Bao, three flesh-refining escorts, two porters, and young disciples such as Lu Feng, and ran up the mountain along the bloodstains on the ground.

"You two go and check and see how many monsters there are." Lu Sandao ordered.

The two porters immediately set out through the forest.

Soon, he came back to report, saying, "Third Master, they are two scorpion-tailed leopards. The male one is injured, and it was the female one that dragged our horse here and fed it to the male one yesterday."

Lu Sandao nodded and said, "Very good, you can even tell the males from the females. It seems that you are very powerful. Then I will let you two go and destroy them in this battle."

The two porters looked embarrassed and said, "Third Master, calm down. We were just making up stories about the male and female leopards, but it is a fact that one of the two scorpion-tailed leopards was injured."

"Okay, leave the injured ones to you. I'll go kill the bastard who stole the horse yesterday!"

After Lu Sandao finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at Zhang Lingshan and said, "Come with me, let me see the skills of Hong Zhengdao's beloved disciple."

"it is good."

Zhang Lingshan was not afraid and followed him immediately.

After the battle with the demon rabbit, he never fought with demon beasts again.

Today, when he met Lu Sandao, a Yi Jin master, he was there to support him. It was a good opportunity for him to use this scorpion-tailed leopard to test his current strength.
