Chapter 3: The Immortal Abandoned City
Immortal Abandoned City, as the name suggests, is a city abandoned by the gods. It has a long history, many rumors, and is not protected by the state, and it is one of the cities under the control of the powers, but there is no law in the city, and there are several murders and fights every day, and the residents have long been accustomed to such days.
Although the Immortal Abandoned City is not prosperous, there are hundreds of industries, and there are basically all that should be there, and there are even some things that can only be encountered in the Immortal Abandoned City. Due to the lack of legal relations, several auction houses and black markets in the city are quite famous, and many people and businessmen will come here to try their luck and bump into the treasure.
Legend has it that Immortal Forsaken City is ruled by several immortals, and no one knows whether it is true or not. But the Immortal Abandoned City can reproduce so far, and the forces behind it must be quite stable, otherwise it would have been absorbed by the Liang State or the Lu State by force, and the forces that can make the two great powers jealous will certainly not be fuel-efficient lamps, but no one knows where this power comes from.
In the city, it is okay to kill people, but to break things is to pay for them. No matter how much grass or wood, brick or tile, or even breaking a wine glass in a restaurant, you have to lose money. Whether it is the envoys of the two countries or the heads of the big factions, as long as they damage the property of the Immortal Abandoned City, they will have to pay money without exception. The two major gangs in the city, the Jinwu Gang, of course, Shanhutang does not have the ability to formulate such rules, but it is conceivable that there is a greater force behind it.
And Xuanyuan Xiao's Golden Dog Gang is just a small gang of fifty people. There are a lot of such small gangs in the city, and there will be conflicts between gangs, and big fists will not sweep away small gangs, after all, the source of protection money is the people, and the brawls and fights are small, and it is terrible to break things and annoy the people.
On weekdays, it is to help the people to protect the safety of the teahouse and restaurant to earn funds, there are many gangs, and if the people are unhappy to find other gangs to help, they will have no work to do. In addition, Xuanyuan Xiao and others occasionally do partial work, such as white wolves and so on.
After walking a long way, he finally returned to a ruined temple far from the east of the Immortal Abandoned City. Along the way, Xuanyuan Xiao was thinking about how to use the memories of his previous life, seeking refuge has never been Xuanyuan Xiao's style, and the Golden Dog Gang is not capable of sheltering their own people, so only their own strength is the most real. In the past, he was good at cartilage skills, disguise techniques, tai chi, Muay Thai, and judo, and he must be retrained in this life.
The disguise technique can be said to be ready-made, as long as there are all the tools, the same can be ever-changing, and the three martial arts are not in a hurry to practice at present, the most important thing now is to adjust their own physical physique, how big their own shortcomings are, this pig's head is the best proof, the only thing that can cooperate with cultivation is cartilage skill.
Xuanyuan Xiao found a vacant lot in the ruined temple and began to exercise. Luo Niu Zeng Shrimp was puzzled when he saw Xuanyuan Xiao's behavior, and stepped forward to inquire but was dismissed, both of them felt that Xuanyuan Xiao was playing tricks again, so they ignored it and went to rest. In the middle, Xuanyuan smiled except for a dinner with the two of them, and spent the rest of the time exercising frantically.
"Xiaoxiao, I'm going to start work with Ah Niu, you can rest today, and I'll help you bring supper when I come back" Jian Xia said with a smile, it was time to prepare to start work, and when they saw Xuanyuan's smiling pig-headed face, the two of them were embarrassed to let him work.
Xuanyuan, who was still exercising, waved his hand with a smile, signaling that he understood. The two didn't say much, and left the broken temple, leaving Xuanyuan laughing alone. From the time he came back to the present, Xuanyuan Xiao has been exercising non-stop for three hours except eating, and he seems to have no idea of resting at all.
Luo Niu Jian Shrimp can't do partial work without Xuanyuan Xiao tonight, and can only run errands and follow everyone. Usually, the three of them rely on partial life to make a living, Luo Niu is responsible for stealing the money bag as a worker, Jian Shrimp is the catcher is responsible for covering Luo Niu, and Xuanyuan Xiao is an expert who needs to disguise himself as a little beggar, and after Jian Shrimp Luo Niu succeeds, he stepped forward to interfere with the target and buy time for the two to escape.
Early in the morning, when Luo Niu Jianxiao came back from work, he saw Xuanyuan fainting and falling to the ground. For fear of another accident, the younger brother came back from the dead yesterday, and the two elder brothers attached great importance to it, Luo Niu hurriedly stepped forward to check and woke up Xuanyuan to smile.
"Am I?" Xuanyuan Xiao, who was woken up, was confused, and after thinking about it, it seemed that he had fainted from exercising too much, and felt extremely sore all over his body, and looked at the two people who were in a hurry, and touched his nose embarrassedly and said, "Brother Niu, I'm fine, it's okay."
Hearing Xuanyuan laugh and say this, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief. Jian Shrimp took out some food and motioned to start, Xuanyuan smiled and endured the soreness and got up to dine with the two. After a small meal, the two of them who had worked all night rested separately, but Xuanyuan Xiao was unable to sleep well because of soreness. In desperation, I could only endure the pain and continue to exercise.
A month later, Xuanyuan Xiao's body bulged with muscles, and his strength and speed increased significantly. In the past days, Luo Niu and Jian Shrimp were also affected by Xuanyuan Xiao, and no one wanted to be compared to each other, so the three of them entered a crazy workout.
During the period, the three of them worked in addition to exercise, and Xuanyuan Xiao had no complaints about playing the role of a little beggar, since he decided to live as Xuanyuan Xiao, then this is also a part of life, not only did he not complain but he also enjoyed it.
Every time he was biased, he used the Assassin's observation and acting skills, which always brought a lot of sympathy. Once I was taken to a restaurant by a big beauty to invite me to a meal, and the eyes of the two of them were red with jealousy. Fortunately, Xuanyuan Xiao took a meal to them, so he avoided some ridicule.
Since exercising, Xuanyuan Xiao has begun to retake Tai Chi, Judo and Muay Thai. Cartilage Gong has been practiced to the introductory stage, and the next days will focus on martial arts, practicing boxing every day to let the body memorize these moves. Luo Niu Jian Shrimp saw Xuanyuan smiling and suddenly began to practice martial arts, and asked him several times in confusion, but they were all fooled.
Xuanyuan Xiao thought that it was too troublesome to explain, and first of all, it was better to pave the way for his martial arts to lie, and it was better to fight directly.
"Xiaoxiao, I see that you have been practicing martial arts for half a month" Looking at Xuanyuan Xiao, who was still practicing, Luo Niu looked confident, rolled up his sleeves and walked towards Xuanyuan Xiao, and said, "I see you twisting and pinching every day, I want to learn to fight, let the eldest brother teach you"
Luo Niu has always thought that Xuanyuan Xiao worships a certain martial arts person, so he has learned martial arts. Luo Niu once did this, in order to follow his idol. Now that he has been obsessed with Xuanyuan Xiao for half a month, it is time for him to recognize the facts.
Seeing Luo Niu posing, Xuanyuan smiled and smiled, his eyes full of confidence. Then he also put on a Taijiquan posture, and moved his double to instruct Yiluo Niu to let the horse come over.
Luo Niu didn't say a word, rushed forward and punched out. Xuanyuan Xiao already knew Luo Niu's thoughts, and seeing Luo Niu's punch, he naturally wouldn't take this fight seriously. If there is any grudge between brothers, at most they will make a small fight.
Xuanyuan Xiao blocked the punch with his left hand, his right shoulder was close to his body, and his right palm was fierce, directly pushing Luo Niu six or seven meters away. The movements are coherent and clean.
Luo Niu, who was far away from the top, immediately got up, obviously not injured. was easily swept away by Xuanyuan Xiao, although it was a little incredible, but it was more unwilling. The idea of wanting Xuanyuan Xiao to recognize the facts was also thrown to 108,000 miles with this top. mixed with the reluctance to continue to punch.
Xuanyuan Xiao has long been perfect in grasping people's hearts, let alone observing words and feelings. How could you not know that Luo Niu was not convinced? I was already familiar with Luo Niu's fiery and impulsive temper. For the attacks that came one after another, Xuanyuan Xiao didn't make much movement, just pushed Luo Niu, and didn't attack.
Luo Niu kept falling and getting up, and continued to attack, always feeling that his strength could not be exerted, the more so, the more unwilling Luo Niu was, and always wanted to give Xuanyuan a solid punch.
Xuanyuan Xiao is no longer the weak persimmon of a few months ago, naturally he will not give Luo Niu this opportunity, if he is hit by Luo Niu who has not practiced martial arts, then Xuanyuan Xiao will be wasted in his last life.
Looking at the stupid Jian Shrimp on the side, his eyes were about to pop out, looking at the embarrassed and powerless Luo Niu, who was thrown away again and again. His opponent was Xuanyuan Xiao, the weakest of the three, his eyes were red and he still couldn't believe it, Zeng Xia, who was the catcher, was the military advisor of the three of them, and the seriousness behind it could be seen through somewhat.
The so-called black who is close to the ink is close to this red, Xuanyuan Xiao does not drag the mud and water in every move, Luo Niu, who has been thrown away dozens of times, is still safe and sound, this matter can no longer be described by the mercy of his subordinates, it is simply rubbing and abusing it, even if he does not attack, he can exhaust Luo Niu to death.
Looking at Xuanyuan Xiao's skyrocketing strength, it would be a lie to say that there is no secret, thinking of this Jian Shrimp's eyes flashed with a hint of fanaticism, and he immediately pounced on Xuanyuan Xiao with a loud roar. Xuanyuan smiled and saw Jian Shrimp break into the battle with a hint of crazy momentum, and casually said, "Damn, make hair", and his body immediately retreated. Luo Niu was overjoyed, although it was despicable, but compared to these, Luo Niu wanted to hit a solid punch.
"I won't play anymore" Xuanyuan smiled and threw out a sentence, turned around and wanted to run, but was pulled by Jian Shrimp's clothes and was immediately suppressed.
"Push, I'll let you push, I'm pushing" Luo Niu, who was sitting on Xuanyuan Xiao's body, kept knocking and beating, but his expression was satisfied.
Zeng Shrimp on the side carried the hemp rope with an evil face, and gave Luo Niu a look, and tied up this kid with five flowers, "Tell the secret, otherwise I will play you to death" Jian Shrimp looked like a big man, and his expression was extremely disgusting.
Xuanyuan smiled helplessly, of course he knew what Jian Shrimp meant by the secret, but he pretended not to know, "I don't have any secrets, you guys are still like this, I'm crying"
"Stinky boy, pretending to be Brother Niu, let's just look at him, inside and out, maybe there will be unexpected surprises" Jian Shrimp grinned.
Xuanyuan smiled and listened to the black lines on his face, and these words gave people goosebumps. Luo Niu didn't seem to understand, and stepped forward to help Xuanyuan Xiao untie his clothes.
Xuanyuan, who was forced to be anxious, smiled and resisted with all his might, but finally endured the humiliation and gave in, of course, the innocence was still there. It's no secret that this is true, but who would believe it?
