The road to Jianghu started from the martial arts hall

Chapter 13: Tianwang Water Village
Fang Xun probably understood it, as he had taught all his detectives the Quanzhen martial arts.

Although Quanzhen internal energy is of a moderate and peaceful nature, it will not lead to insane practice if practiced incorrectly. It is very good for laying a solid foundation in the early stages.

But the disadvantage is that his progress is slow. Yan Ming is not like Fang Xun, who can absorb the essence of martial arts characters and make rapid progress.

Seeing my progress so slowly, I can't help but feel impatient.

Fang Xun interrupted Yan Ming before he could finish his words: "So you want to change to a faster one?"

Yan Ming nodded.

Seeing this, Wei Lin shook his head and said, "How can you be so short-sighted? You must know that you are different from others. You rely on guiding the Qi of the foundation to enter the acquired state.

As long as you practice diligently and lay a good foundation, you can switch to other advanced internal skills in the future. Not only can you expect to open up your innate meridians, but you can also expect to open up your orifices."

Yan Ming lowered his head in shame when he heard this.

If it were any other constable, Wei Lin would simply ignore him, but Yan Ming was different.

Fang Xun trained him as his trusted aide, and Wei Lin also often gave him guidance.

In the future, when Fang Xun enters the Six Gates, Yan Ming will follow him closely.

After Fang Xun taught a group of constables martial arts, only Yan Ming learned it through the guiding technique of "The Song of Quanzhen Dao" to stimulate his own qi.

This is the best entry-level foundation-building method in the world.

However, it has relatively high requirements on qualifications and character. Just like Fang Xun, he has a good master with no shortage of resources, his own qualifications are also good, and he also has the plug-in of the Martial Arts Hall.

However, because he had experienced the era of information explosion in his previous life, his mind was rather complicated, which became the biggest obstacle to his entry.

After learning the basic knowledge of meridians and acupoints at the age of eleven, he began to practice "The Song of Quanzhen Dao".

It was not until he was eighteen years old, after having spent more than seven years outside the sect, that he finally smoothed out his temperament and entered the acquired realm. Before that, he could only practice external skills with Nalan Yuanshu.

Wei Lin often shook his head and sighed about this. His precocious disciple was good in every way except that he was too smart. He was so smart that he had many distracting thoughts and could not concentrate.

Yan Ming had decent aptitude and was not as demanding as Fang Xun, a time traveler. It only took him two years to get started.

Looking at Yan Ming who lowered his head in shame, Fang Xun sighed in his heart. After all, he was a young man with a rather lively temperament and couldn't calm down.

Thinking of this, he said, "For the time being, you should practice the Quanzhen Kung Fu. After a while, I will give you a better internal Kung Fu book."

"Brother Xun, are you telling the truth?" Yan Ming's eyes immediately lit up.

"When have I ever lied to you?" Fang Xun waved his hand. "Master and I are here, so you can go help the others and compile a list of the seized items as soon as possible."

"Okay, Brother Xun!"

Yan Ming responded excitedly and left the study. Fang Xun and Wei Lin laughed at his back.

Soon, the master and disciple calmed down and began to quickly look through the account books on the desk.

After a while, Fang Xun discovered some clues and pointed out several items in the account book to Wei Lin.

"Master, look at this one. And this one.
Within one year, four ships of Feiyutang were hijacked when passing near Tianwangzhai, once every three months. The ships were loaded with medicinal herbs that the Li family sold to other places.

I feel like these herbs were deliberately sent to the doorstep of Tianwangzhai to be robbed by the other party!"

Jiangzhou is one of the eight prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River. It is located in a land of fish, rice and water, with a dense network of rivers. Many prefectures and counties are located on important water transportation routes, which promotes prosperous trade.

This also led to the proliferation of bandits, and even some well-known masters became bandits to do this no-cost business. Among them, Tianwang Water Stronghold was the largest stronghold of Jiangzhou's bandits. After Wei Lin quickly glanced through the accounts mentioned by Fang Xun, his eyes fixed.

However, after hesitating for a moment, he still said conservatively: "Don't jump to conclusions for now. Wait until the accounts of the Li Mansion are sorted out before comparing and verifying them."

Fang Xun nodded, wrote down the shipping destination and buyer information in a few accounts, and then threw the account book on the table.

It would take some time for Yan Ming and his detectives to count the seized goods, so the master and his disciple began to check the martial arts secrets in the study.

Fang Xun directly picked up the two secret books that Yan Ming had found earlier and began to read them.

He glanced at the first book, "The Green Fish Swims," ​​and then threw it aside.

"Green Fish Swimming" is a supporting light Kung Fu body movement in Zhu Ming's Success Method. When it is performed, it is as nimble and swift as a fish swimming in water. It can be used to travel long distances as well as move in a small area. It is quite comprehensive.

However, this light Kung Fu is not as good as "The Divine Movement" for small-scale maneuvers, and not as good as "Golden Goose Kung Fu" for long-distance travel.

Fang Xun lost interest after just a few glances, but after picking up the second hidden weapon manual "Fish Scale Dance", he began to read it with great interest.

Wei Lin, who was browsing the bookshelf nearby, couldn't help but remind him when he saw this.

"Except for the common basic force, all other hidden weapon techniques require opening up the twelve meridians before they can be used. It's too early for you to see them now."

Fang Xun thought so too and quickly flipped through it. After making sure that it could be reproduced in the martial arts hall, he threw "Fish Scale Dance" aside.

In addition to the eight extraordinary meridians, the human body also has twelve regular meridians, which are two distinct systems.

In the acquired realm cultivation of this life, only after one has reached a certain level of internal strength will one start to open up the twelve meridians.

The internal energy is transported and strengthened through the eight extraordinary meridians, and then is used through the twelve regular meridians to perform various moves to unleash its true power.

In Wei Lin's eyes, Fang Xun had just entered the Day After Tomorrow yesterday, so he said that it was too early for his disciple to learn the hidden weapon secrets of "Fish Scale Dance" which involved the cultivation of the Twelve Meridians.

After Fang Xun dropped "Fish Scale Dance", he also started searching on the bookshelf.

There are quite a lot of martial arts books in Zhu Mingcheng's study.

However, most of them are common stuff like "Five Tigers Breaking the Gate Sword", "Iron Shirt" and "Eagle Claw Kung Fu", which the master and disciple both look down upon.

But there were also some good stuff among them. After searching for a while, Fang Xun and Wei Lin found Zhu Mingcheng's external skills, techniques and internal skills.

Together with "Green Fish Swimming" and "Fish Scale Dance", it forms a complete system of innate martial arts.

For a moment, the only sound in the study was the rustling of pages turning. Fang Xun and Wei Lin were both concentrating on reading this set of exercises.

Although the martial arts that Zhu Mingcheng learned were far inferior to their own skills, he was still a congenital master and had some good points.

After an unknown amount of time, they heard the sound of hurried footsteps and looked up. It was Yan Ming who came back.

He handed a list to Fang Xun.

"Brother Xun, the brothers have counted the spoils."

Fang Xun took it and looked at it. Not counting the immovable properties such as land, houses, and ships, the total value of the gold, silver, jewelry, medicinal materials, silk and other floating properties was only more than 700 taels of silver. He frowned immediately.

"Why so little?"
