The road to Jianghu started from the martial arts hall

Chapter 164 Dusk Rain Red Sleeve Knife
The undercurrents in various parts of Jiangzhou did not affect the daily life of Jinling Prefecture.

Time is a butcher's knife, but time is also a medicine that can heal everything.

At this time, another six days had passed, and it had been half a month since the assassination of the prefect Luo Kang. Except for a few unlucky people who were thrown into prison, no other major events had happened. Everything was uneventful.

The desolation of Jinling City was gradually cured.

The day is noon.

On the river, hundreds of boats are competing for the current, and there is an endless stream of ships of all sizes coming and going. At the city gate, there is also a constant stream of people coming and going.

Everyone seemed to have gradually forgotten the unpleasantness of half a month ago, and this thousand-year-old ancient city has returned to its usual prosperous scene in the south of the Yangtze River.

There were no longer elite soldiers on guard duty on the city walls, and the soldiers at the city gates had returned to their former relaxed state. Everything seemed as if nothing had changed.

At this moment, a series of rapid horse hoof sounds suddenly sounded in the distance, getting closer and closer without slowing down.

This not only attracted the attention of people at the city gate, but also immediately made the soldiers at the gate perk up.

Then, dozens of riders came closer and closer and came into everyone's sight.

When the captain of the city gate saw the face of the man on the leading horse, his face changed and he shouted immediately.

"It's Lord Yu, the commander of the Six Gates. Everyone, clear a path!"

The other soldiers did not need his orders. After seeing that the person leading them was Yu Jiaolong, they had already started to push together the team at the city gate and quickly separated the two sides to make a wide passage.

Although others had some complaints in their hearts, they did not dare to stand in Yu Jiaolong's way.

I watched the other party take the lead and rush into the city gate, followed closely by the Six Gates constables in black uniforms.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of riders entered the city.

Yu Jiaolong's face was gloomy, as if she had encountered something bad. She did not slow down after entering the city.

He led his men and ran all the way to the Liushenmen base before stopping.

After everyone got off their horses, without notifying anyone or taking a break, they walked towards the threshold with the gait of a dragon or a tiger.

The two post-natal realm guards who were guarding the gate quickly opened the door and welcomed the group in.

After Yu Jiaolong came back, there was a commotion in the garrison. Soon Sun Youcai came with a group of detectives to greet her.

Seeing his boss's gloomy face, Sun Youcai's heart skipped a beat and he began to worry.

Something bad must have happened, otherwise the commander wouldn't have such an ugly look on his face.

"Commander"

Before he could say a word, he was interrupted by Yu Jiaolong with a wave of her hand.

"Gather everyone to the meeting room. Within one hour, all silver-medal and above constables who are still in Jinling City must be present. If anyone is late, they don't need to come here anymore!"

Sun Youcai was stunned for a moment, but immediately remembered Fang Xun who was still recovering from his injuries and asked quickly.

"Fang Xun is still recovering at home."

When Fang Xun was mentioned, Yu Jiaolong's gloomy expression relaxed a little.

"Notify him as soon as possible. Don't force him. If he can come, that's fine. If he can't come, that's fine too!"

After saying this, he ignored Sun Youcai and walked straight towards the parliament hall.

Only a group of Six Gates detectives were left standing there. You looked at each other, knowing that something big must have happened.

The next moment, all those who had reached the silver level were in a hurry to catch up with Yu Jiaolong. They did not want to be punished by the commander because they were late.

In the Sixing Hall, servants were coming and going, and disciples were sweating profusely in the training ground.

Within half a month, the second batch of more than 40 disciples and deacons arrived in Jinling City. Duan Mingfu also relied on his relationship with Baoxuan Pavilion to buy some properties at a low price, which was just right for these new people to come in handy.

Fang Xun has always lived a reclusive life, staying in his attic and practicing diligently, rarely appearing in public.

After Yan Ming and Dongfang Que set off for Black Wind Village yesterday, he and Duan Mingfu were the only ones living in the attic.

At this moment he had just pushed open the third door.

In the ring, Fang Xun saw a man standing opposite him, wearing a white fur coat and a bright red robe with gold edges, which stood out as a streak of red in the white.

The man was very young, with bright eyes, but there was a sense of weakness, desolation and melancholy between his brows.

His face was very pale, the kind of face that one gets from being bedridden for a long time without seeing the sun, but he was not as weak as Lin Daiyu. He was like a red plum blossom in the snow, lonely, proud and cold.

He also had a beautiful knife hanging on his waist.

The red sleeve knife has a transparent blade and a crimson body, like a beauty's slender waist.

But this knife is not only beautiful, it is also extremely effective in killing people.

Su Mengzhen, the owner of the Golden Wind and Rain Tower in Bianjing City.

Not long after he was born, when he was still in swaddling clothes, he was injured by the "Sixth Hand in the World", from which he was left with a disease. His body became weak, he suffered from a serious illness, coughed all year round, and was sick all over.

Fang Xun couldn't help but sigh at this. The Su Mengzhen in front of him was a martial arts genius who definitely had the strength to reach the highest level of enlightenment, but his weak body restricted his path in martial arts.

"Ahem. Brother Fang, have you finally decided not to give in to me?"

Although the Martial Arts Hall has now cured his illness, Su Mengzhen still coughs habitually when he speaks.

At this time, 'Listening to the Spring Rain in a Small Building at Night' has appeared in Fang Xun's right hand.

However, in his left hand, it was not the Prison Moon Blade, but an ancient sword with a dark green blade. It was the "Blood Shining in Painting" that he had asked old man Mo to help recast.

Compared to more than half a month ago, the sword body of "Bi Xue Zhao Dan Qing" which was melted from the remains of Fei Xue Sword has become much longer, now more than three feet long, but the sword edge is still as cold as ever.

"Brother Su, please."

Fang Xun just said lightly that he had been communicating with Su Mengzhen for five days, and he had already grasped the essence of the other party's "Red Sleeve Knife in Dusk and Drizzle", and it was time to start the next character.

"Ahem, sorry for the awful performance!" Su Mengzhen coughed lightly, and in an instant, a flash of knife light so fast that it was indescribable appeared.

The red sleeves knife in the dusk drizzle, the first knife of the red sleeves in the dream pillow.

At the moment the knife was drawn, only a thin crimson line was left floating in the air, as if a gorgeous girl was dancing at dusk.

"Good knife!"

Fang Xun also sensed a hint of danger and couldn't help but praise.

You can only hear the melodious sound of the knife, but you can hardly see the shadow of the knife. The beauty of this knife is breathtaking.

But the sunset is infinitely beautiful, but unfortunately, the sunset glow can also bring death to people.

A cup of tea later, Fang Xun's figure emerged in the training ground. He was still thinking about the battle just now and sighed again that God is jealous of talented people.

Su Mengzhen was hampered by injuries, which resulted in the incompleteness of his physical orifices. Not to mention becoming a master of divine will, he could not even reach the ultimate state of awakening his orifices, otherwise his achievements would have been much more than this.

After a while, Fang Xun calmed down and turned his attention to the newly appeared name.

[Qu Ao, the highest level of enlightenment, from "The Legend of the Two Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", to be defeated]

This made Fang Xun stunned. Unknowingly, the level of the martial arts character had reached the ultimate state of enlightenment. Then he began to recall Qu Ao's information.

Flying Eagle Qu Ao is one of the top masters in "The Legend of the Two Heroes of the Tang Dynasty". He later challenged "Martial Master" Bi Xuan and was defeated miserably. This battle made Qu Ao fall into the dust like an eagle with broken wings.

From then on, Qu Ao's martial arts skills did not improve but deteriorated. He indulged in wine and women all day long to numb himself and escape from Bi Xuan's shadow.

This guy's strength is pretty good. Fang Xun estimated that even if he is not as strong as others, he is the type that is easy to defeat but difficult to kill after a fight.

Fang Xun thought that the "Nine Changes of Condensation" he created was a good practice that would help him open up his acupoints.

The number 'nine' means endless, which means that martial arts have no end and when practiced to perfection, all the acupoints in the body can be opened up.

Fang Xun has not yet started to practice the acupoints and hidden meridians, and the "Book of Black Heaven" is still under repair.

However, he has already figured out some clues and estimates that it will take at most half a month for him to complete the practice and start formal cultivation.

It was only a matter of time for him to open up the hidden meridians throughout the body. After that, he would start to open up the acupoints. However, Fang Xun didn't have any good method to open up the acupoints now.

The most advanced techniques among the many skills Fang Xun possesses.

Although the "Seven Styles of Blood Hands" of the Blood Demon Dao is a master's unique skill, he will not practice it. At most, he will take a look at it as a reference after becoming a master of Yin Shen.

And after Fang Xun read the master's unique skills from Lijiang Pavilion that Qiu Feng and others handed in a few days ago, he shook his head.

The sword skills of Lijiange are indeed good, but their internal strength is just average.

Although this "average" is something that countless ordinary people in the martial arts world would fight hard to obtain, its quality is ultimately not as good as the unique skills of the Thirty-Six Masters.

The reason why the ancestors of Lijian Pavilion were able to break through to the level of Yinshen Grandmaster was mainly due to their own talents.

The "Tianxing Qi Xi Fa" focuses more on the cultivation of hidden meridians, and the acupoints part is much inferior.

As for "The Secret of Immortality" and "Tai Xuan Jing", one is in oracle bone script and the other is in tadpole script. Although both are extraordinary magical skills, there is nothing you can do if you can't understand them.

The magical skills in "Cang Hai" are good, but they are a jumpy martial arts system with obvious drawbacks.

In Fang Xun's opinion, "The Wisdom Sutra of the Origin of All Things" is an unparalleled method for tempering spiritual wisdom, but the cultivation of hidden meridians and acupoints is only average.

As for other styles such as the “Four-Form Freehand”, needless to say, the level does not even involve the ultimate state of enlightenment.

“I just hope that “Nine Transformations of Condensation” won’t let me down.”

Just when Fang Xun was about to push the door open to see the "Nine Changes of Condensation", a martial art that mainly focuses on acupoint cultivation, there was suddenly a noise outside, as if someone was knocking on the door.

Fang Xun frowned. The only person who could knock on the door while he was practicing was Duan Mingfu.

If Duan Mingfu had nothing important to do, he would not have come to disturb me.

Thinking of this, Fang Xun's mind left the martial arts hall, he stood up, took a few steps to open the door, and sure enough, he saw Duan Mingfu standing outside.

"what's up?"

Duan Mingfu said quickly, "Lord Sun came in person and said he had something urgent to deal with. He is waiting in the lobby now."

"Okay, take me to see him."

Soon, Fang Xun arrived at a lobby in the mansion and saw Sun Youcai pacing back and forth, as if thinking about something.

When he saw Fang Xun coming, he immediately stepped forward and said, "The commander has just returned to the city. As soon as he returned to the station, he ordered all the captains of the Six Gates with silver medals and above to see her within an hour."

Fang Xun was stunned when he heard this.

'It's only been a few days, and Yu Jiaolong has returned to the city so soon, and in such a hurry. Did something big happen, or did she want to cut the Gordian knot and deal with Qin Wanpeng without giving him time to react?'

And immediately Sun Youcai said, "But Brother Fang, your situation is special. You don't have to force yourself. You can go or not."

Fang Xun hesitated for a moment and said, "It's okay. My injuries have mostly healed. Since the commander has summoned me, there is no reason not to go."

Sun Youcai nodded: "Okay, time is running out, let's go now!"

Fang Xun said, "Please wait for a moment, Brother Sun. I will change into my official uniform before setting off."

"As soon as possible."

After speaking to Sun Youcai, Fang Xun quickly returned to the attic and changed into a dark brown official uniform. His official uniform was embroidered with silver patterns to indicate his rank.

Then Fang Xun hung "Listening to the Spring Rain in a Small Building at Night" around his waist.

He guessed that Yu Jiaolong would attack Qin Wanpeng in a while, and a fight was inevitable, so weapons would definitely have to be brought.

Just when he was about to pick up the 'Green Blood Shining in the Painting', something suddenly occurred to him and he did not take the sword, but the Red Sleeve Knife appeared in his hand.

"It's a good time to try out the new book 'Red Sleeve Knife in Dusk and Drizzle'."
