Martial Arts Immortal

time flies.

The situation in Songyicheng became increasingly tense, and even civilians felt that something was wrong.

The conflict between the three major gangs has intensified a lot.

The two major forces, Feihong Gang and Jiuxing Gang, have gradually shrunk, giving up most of their territory outside the city, consolidating their wealth, and preparing to move their families to other cities.

Not many people from the aristocratic families behind the two major forces joined the City Guards, so it was easy to escape. The Xing family and the City Guards are deeply bound, and there is no way to escape easily.

But it's not all bad.

This war is both a crisis and an opportunity for the Xing family.

As long as they win this battle, save Songyicheng, and embezzle the properties of other aristocratic families, their Xing family will be the only aristocratic family in Songyicheng!

The spring breeze blows.

Rebirth.

However, people's hearts are even more desolate than in the cold winter.

There were not many pedestrians on the street. Baiwei Street was no longer as lively as it used to be, and many stalls were closed.

In Bidan Tea House.

The tea house business is extremely deserted.

More than ten days have passed, and the news that Baohe City was captured by the rebels was spread by people who were interested.

Nowadays, people in the city are in panic, and few people are in the mood or have the spare money to listen to books.

well……

Manager Wu sighed, his fat face looking extremely haggard.

He is just an ordinary person. In the face of war, the best choice is to stay in the city.

The risk of following the trend of escaping is very high, and the biggest possibility is to become a refugee, or a soul killed by bandits.

Even if you are lucky enough to come to another city, it is not easy to start over and find a job that can support your family.

Stop sighing, I feel like my ears are getting calluses. Come on, have a drink of wine to relieve your boredom. Xie Jiang poured a glass of wine for Manager Wu and said with a smile.

What about the last proposal? Are you interested in leaving with the Feihong Gang to Bafang City?

Bafang City is much more prosperous than Songyicheng. With your ability, it is easy to find a living job there. Lin Zheyu looked at Wu Yinghe Road.

Senior Brother Han was unable to evacuate early due to his sensitive status, so he could only do what he could.

Wu Yinghe is just an ordinary person. If he wants to evacuate, it is still very simple.

As a member of the Feihong Gang, Lin Zheyu can drag his family and leave. He has no family, so he can give his place to Manager Wu.

He didn't have many friends in Songyicheng. Jia Yanyong and the others were good Feihong gang members themselves, so they didn't need this quota.

It's not that easy. Most of the people in the city affected by the war have moved their families to Bafang City. Now it must be a mess.

When we get there, it may not be more comfortable than staying in Songyi City.

Wu Yinghe shook his head, his face was very troubled.

There have been a lot of random rumors lately.

People are spreading rumors that the rebel army is an army of justice, coming to eradicate the tyranny of the Wei Dynasty so that people will no longer be oppressed and exploited by aristocratic families and the government!

Make life fairer and richer.

Wu Yinghe didn't know whether he should believe it or not. If the rebel army was really a benevolent army, then staying in Songyicheng would be a good choice.

It's still a long time, think about it slowly. Lin Zheyu patted Wu Yinghe on the shoulder and said.

The plan to evacuate Songyi City has been finalized recently. It will be evacuated in three batches. The first batch to evacuate are family members, and we are not included.

Lin Zheyu looked at Jia Yanyong and others and said.

In fact, he could also evacuate with the first batch, but Lin Zheyu refused. He wanted to stay in Songyicheng for a while.

For ordinary people, the loss of order means danger.

But for him, whose Qi and blood have changed, the loss of order means opportunity.

The more chaotic it is, the more opportunities he has to fish in troubled waters.

The second batch was evacuated when the rebels launched an attack on Guanning City. The evacuated people were the family members of the gang who wanted to evacuate with the Feihong Gang. The specific time will be notified.

The third batch was evacuated before the rebel army launched an attack on Songyi City. At this time, except for some members, everyone else evacuated Songyi City.

Lin Zheyu explained the evacuation arrangements to several people.

Although they have made plans to evacuate, these aristocratic families have not completely given up on their properties in Songyicheng.

The industry in Songyicheng is the result of the hard work of several generations of the family. After giving up, it is almost impossible to develop and grow to the current level in other cities.

He would be considered lucky if he could recover 20 to 30% of his energy.

They plan to gradually evacuate and slowly give up some interests. Even if Songyicheng is saved in the end, the loss will not be too heavy.

It's just that the Xing family probably won't let them get their wish and will hinder them.

You will notify us later and collect a list of members who are willing to evacuate together. Lin Zheyu said to several people.

good!

Jia Yanyong and others nodded in agreement.

After drinking the remaining wine in the jug, they went to gather the gang and collect information.

Return to the yard.

Lin Zheyu started practicing as usual.

In the past ten days, his strength has improved tremendously, and he is not far from reaching the seventh level of perfection.

Boo hoo hoo.

The sword light flashed in the yard, and the long sword was in Lin Zheyu's hand like an arm.

After several months of hard training, Liuhe Dao is not far away from reaching the perfect level.

However, whether the sword technique is perfect or not will not greatly improve Lin Zheyu's combat effectiveness.

His main way of fighting now is to rely on his light kung fu and body skills that are far beyond ordinary people, combined with the use of sword skills.

With the cooperation of the superb Jin Yan Kung, even ordinary sword skills can exert extremely terrifying power.

Only when facing a warrior who is stronger than him, or an opponent whose speed is comparable to his, is it necessary to compete in the realm of sword fighting.

After practicing continuously for more than two hours, Lin Zheyu stopped with a slight gasp.

【God rewards those who work hard】

Name: Lin Zheyu

Source power: 0

Skill:

Man Bull Boxing (Perfect)

Liuhe Dao (10% of Dacheng)

Jin Yan Gong (7th level 83%)

Wanjunbu (97% on the fourth level)

Poison King Body (0% on the first level)

Turtle Breathing Technique (Third Level 4%)

It's almost time. In ten days, we will be able to accumulate enough source power to break through to the third transformation of qi and blood, and reach the level where qi and blood are as strong as a tiger.

Lin Zheyu looked at the data in his consciousness and said secretly.

After reaching the second transformation of qi and blood, every three times he breaks through the limit, he will increase his source power by two units, and the speed of accumulating source power will be much faster.

However, correspondingly, the difficulty of improving the realm has also increased.

Nowadays, one unit of source power needs to be used in conjunction with eight sets of medicinal materials for Yixue Zhuanggu Decoction, which can increase the progress by about 9%.

Fortunately, I have earned a lot of money recently by relying on my skills and blood pills, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to sustain such consumption.

Lin Zheyu had no idea that the blood pill was so valuable that it could be sold for four hundred taels of silver.

In his opinion, after the Blood Pill breaks through to the Qi and Blood Realm, the path to further improvement is cut off. The value is not very high. If it is sold for about two hundred taels of silver, it is a very high price.

But Senior Brother Han directly offered forty taels of gold, which was four hundred taels of silver.

This price is not a small amount.

The purchase of skills and blood pills almost depleted Senior Brother Han's savings, many of which were the silver of Senior Brother's entire family.

In the end, Lin Zheyu gave Senior Brother Han a lot of poisons in his collection, and after persuading him to accept them for free.

Otherwise, after earning so much money from Senior Brother Han, Lin Zheyu always felt that he had taken advantage of Senior Brother and couldn't help but feel guilty.

It's not easy for Senior Brother Han, there are so many people to support.

Lin Zheyu sighed.

He has never wanted to start a family. The main reason is that he is afraid that he will not be strong enough to protect his family when he encounters danger.

If you are alone, you don't have so many worries.

After your strength reaches the third level of Qi and Blood Transformation, go to the Lion Valley and grab some blood pills. Lin Zheyu said secretly.

After reaching the third transformation of Qi and Blood, he became one of the top strong men in Songyi City.

With his attainments in Qinggong, even if he encounters those guys in black and red robes from the Jiuyou Sect, he can easily escape and even kill a few of them.

Crowd tactics are no longer useful against light kung fu masters like Lin Zheyu. If you want to deal with him, you must either be stronger than him and be in a crushing situation.

Either his Qing Gong is better than his and he can keep up with his speed.

Boom, boom, boom.

Boom boom.

It was getting dark, and there was a knock on the door.

Opening the door, it was a servant of the Xu family.

Mr. Lin, Mr. Xu, please come over for a moment. The servant said respectfully.

Okay, I'll come right away.

Lin Zheyu changed his clothes and came to Funing Garden.

Funing Garden was very lively today. Ren Qingfeng, Chen Xihong, Ren Qingying, and Xu Yuxiang were all there, all young ladies he was familiar with.

Brother Lin is here, please sit down.

Xu Qinyi said with a smile and invited Lin Zheyu to sit down.

Brother Lin, what are you thinking about? Do you really not want to leave with us? Xu Qinyi asked.

After making the evacuation plan, Xu Qinyi invited Lin Zheyu to leave with them in the same batch.

In his opinion, Songyi City is now in such chaos and it is very dangerous to stay here, so it is better to evacuate in advance.

As for Songyicheng's industry, others are responsible for it.

I plan to stay in Songyicheng for a while. I still have some things to deal with, and then I will evacuate with the Feihong Gang. Lin Zheyu said.

He once promised Mr. Chen that when he became stronger, he would kill Zhao Guanbin, but the matter has not yet been completed.

There are also the Xing family members. Before leaving, Lin Zheyu felt uncomfortable if he didn't kill the old man and Xing Penghai who had threatened him before.

Finally, the blood pills were so valuable that he planned to go to Lion Valley to grab some more after his strength increased.

Otherwise, after arriving in Bafang City, the wages from the Feihong Gang and the money earned from promoting story-telling would only be enough to buy one or two sets of medicinal materials for Yixue Zhuanggu Decoction a month, which is not enough at all.

In a peaceful and stable environment, it is difficult to hide your strength and make money quickly.

Taking advantage of the current chaotic situation in Songyicheng and the opportunity to fish in troubled waters, if you can earn a little, earn a little more.

Brother Xihong, what about you? There are probably many children of your Chen family serving in the City Guards. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to evacuate.

Lin Zheyu looked at Chen Xihong and asked.

The Chen family also has a lot of manpower in the city guard, but unlike the Xing family, the Xing family made its fortune relying on the city guard.

The current commander of the city guards is the Xing family.

We don't have a big problem. As long as the few people who joined the city guard don't evacuate all, we just need to leave some manpower behind.

I heard that your senior brother is also a member of the city guard. If he wants his family members to evacuate early, I can help.

It is impossible for all relatives to evacuate, but it is still possible for his parents, wife and children to evacuate in advance.

Chen Xihong said with a smile.

The rules were set by the Wei official and were used to restrain ordinary people.

For people at their level, the same rules will be much more relaxed for them.

Okay, thank you very much, Brother Chen. I'll go back and ask my senior brother for his opinion. Lin Zheyu felt happy and thanked him.

It's just a small thing.

The deputy commander your senior brother follows has a very good relationship with our Chen family and is considered half of our own. Chen Xihong said.

Not all of the city guards came from aristocratic families. The deputy commander was a strong man from a civilian background. His name was Xie Qiang, and he was a talented martial arts master.

The city guard is divided into three factions.

There are the Xing family, the civilians, and other aristocratic families. The Chen family is a member of other aristocratic families.

As a warrior from a civilian background, Senior Brother Han is the one who took refuge with Xie Qi'ang and belongs to the civilian faction.

If Brother Lin doesn't evacuate together, Sister Yuxiang will be worried. Ren Qingfeng joked with a smile.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xu Yuxiang is interested in Lin Zheyu, and the Xu family has been trying to match them up, but it is a pity that Lin Zheyu has no such thoughts.

Master Ren, don't talk nonsense. Master Lin and I are just friends. As friends, we are just a little worried. Xu Yuxiang said with a blushing face.

She secretly looked at Lin Zheyu and saw that Lin Zheyu looked as usual, with a somewhat lonely look in his eyes.

If there is still a chance to meet, we can meet Brother Lin when he goes to Bafang City in the future.

But Brother Lin must be careful when staying in the city. After we evacuate, there will be far fewer strong men stationed in Songyi City.

The Jiuxing Gang is also planning to evacuate, almost at the same time as us. By then, the Xing family will be the most powerful in Songyicheng.

The fifth elder of the Xing family has been eyeing Brother Lin before. This time he may take the opportunity to attack you. You must be careful.

Xu Qinyi said with a solemn expression.

I'm a little confused about the Xing family. Why would they target me?

Although my talent is indeed a bit stronger, I am still just a warrior in the bone forging realm. I won't let such a big family keep an eye on me, right?

Lin Zheyu asked about the doubts in his heart, and Xing Jinglong targeted him as if he had had a conflict with him before.

Xing Jinglong's father and brother wanted to arrest him in order to find clues to Xing Jinglong's death and avenge him.

But the fifth elder of the Xing family was different. It was obvious that they came for him.

I know this.

Chen Xihong interrupted, and everyone else looked over curiously.

It is said that the Xing family has a secret medicine that can stimulate the potential of warriors, allowing them to rapidly increase their strength and reach the level of Qi and Blood Realm in a short period of time.

However, this kind of secret medicine has extremely high requirements for warriors. It requires people with extraordinary talents and qualifications. Otherwise, it will not only be ineffective, but also waste the potential and lifespan of the warrior.

The Xing family is keeping an eye on Brother Lin, probably planning to use the secret medicine to train Brother Lin into a strong Qi and Blood Realm.

The cost of this secret medicine is very high. The lifespan of the Qi and Blood Realm masters it cultivates is very short, no more than five years at most. It is not worth it in peaceful times.

But now that war is about to break out, the Xing family has sensed the crisis, and has taken up the idea of ​​using secret medicine to cultivate a group of dead warriors in the Qi and Blood Realm.

According to the spies' reports, not only in Songyi City, the Xing family has arranged many people to enter other cities to search for warriors with extraordinary talents and no background.

Chen Xihong said solemnly.

When everyone heard this, they were all a little surprised and confused. They didn't expect that the Xing family had such means.

I have also read relevant records in the clan's classics.

It is said that hundreds of years ago, when Songyi City was established, the ancestors of the Xing family relied on the private soldiers composed of dozens of Qi and Blood Realm warriors to establish the name of Songyi City's No. 1 family.

Xu Qinyi said: This Qi and Blood Realm private soldier is probably made using this method.

I see, no wonder the Xing family keeps staring at me!

Lin Zheyu suddenly said.

If he hadn't been hiding his strength and his strength was improving much faster than the Xing family imagined, he would have been secretly captured by the Xing family.

Brother Lin, I think it's safer for you to leave with us. Ren Qingfeng said seriously after listening.

Don't worry, I have my own plan, nothing will happen to me.

Lin Zheyu pretended to be confused, and after thinking about it for a while, he said in a helpless and decisive tone.

In this case, I won't advise you anymore. You must be more careful. See you in Bafang City! Xu Qinyi said.

They could tell that Lin Zheyu probably had some personal matters of his own to deal with.

But if Lin Zheyu didn't say anything, it would be hard for them to ask.

If you need anything, just ask and I'll see if I can help. Ren Qingfeng said with a smile.

No, I can handle it myself.

Lin Zheyu shook his head and said.

I have to say that these three young masters are indeed very good friends.

…

Three days later, most of the members of several aristocratic families of the Feihong Gang evacuated.

Two days later, members of several aristocratic families behind the Nine Star Gang also began to evacuate.

The two forces shrank rapidly, retaining only the core industries, and Songyicheng became dominated by the Xing family.

Senior Brother Han agreed to let his parents, wife and children evacuate in advance, and with the help of Chen Xihong, he left with the second batch of evacuees from the Feihong Gang.

That is to say, when the rebel army launched an attack on Guanning City, they followed the members of the Feihong Gang and left Songyi City to take refuge in Bafang City.

Han Mo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after finding a way out for his parents, wife and children.

Xing family.

After the Feihong Gang and Jiuxing Gang shrank in power, the Xing family and the Wuding Gang headed by the Xing family began to mobilize to embezzle the industries ceded by the two major forces.

Dad, Lin Zheyu didn't evacuate with the Xu family. I thought he was going to run away this time.

Xing Penghai said, with a smile on his face.

They specifically mentioned Lin Zheyu's matter to the fifth elder before, but they didn't expect that the fifth elder was delayed by the incident in the Lion Valley and never took action.

I thought that because Lin Zheyu was so talented, he would evacuate with the first batch of people from the Xu family, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't.

This is really an unexpected surprise.

Do you think the fifth elder has really forgotten this? Xing Zhicheng said meaningfully.

What do you mean? Xing Penghai asked with some confusion.

When the first group of members of the Feihong Gang evacuated, they were attacked by bandits halfway. There were not many casualties, but a lot of silver and goods were lost.

Xing Zhiyuan said with a cold smile, his face full of meaningful expression.

I see. No wonder the fifth elder has not taken action and is not worried that Lin Zheyu will leave early. Xing Penghai suddenly said.

Dad, since Lin Zheyu did not leave with the Xu family, and the city lord is no longer in Songyi City, we no longer need to be so timid.

How about I bring someone to the door at night and capture him? Xing Penghai said.

Finding out the cause of death of Xing Zhiyuan and his son is the next best thing.

The main purpose is to capture Lin Zheyu and find a talented warrior for the Xing family, who can gain a lot of contribution points.

Um.

Be careful, he is probably quite accomplished in the Poison Path, otherwise Zhiyuan and Jing'an would not have disappeared so quietly.

Xing Zhicheng warned.

Yes, I asked Uncle Fugui to act with me. Xing Penghai said.

In Songyi City, there is an undercurrent surging.

Lin Zheyu was not idle either. After practicing every day, he dressed up in disguise, used the Turtle Breathing Technique to hide his aura, and secretly found out the whereabouts of important people in the Xing family.

A hidden corner outside Xing Mansion.

Lin Zheyu silently looked in the direction of the door of Xing Mansion, his eyes a little cold.

This war is both a crisis and an opportunity for the Xing family, and it is not the same for Lin Zheyu.

But unlike the Xing family, for Lin Zheyu, opportunities far outweigh crises!
