As long as his parents are not around, no one can coerce him, and he can do things and stretch his hands and feet to his heart's content. + Besides, this old house is already in dilapidation, and the conditions are very bad and unsuitable for habitation. Living here for so many years is also forced to be helpless. Now that he has money in his hand, he can improve the living environment for the second elder.

He had already contacted Dr. Wu Zhizhong, who had a relative who grew medicine in a mountainous area in southern Hunan and happened to need someone to help take care of the medicinal herbs, so he could ask his parents to go there for a while. Dr. Wu assured him that the relative was of a very reliable character.

Huo Zongtang decided to rent a house for his parents in that small mountain town, so that they could learn how to grow medicine and vegetables with Dr. Wu's relatives, and then take them back when the matter passed.

He made up an excuse, saying that if something like this happened today, it would be better to go out for a walk and relax. He also said that Dr. Wu promised to treat him, but he needed to find someone to help grow medicine, and his parents didn't have a job now anyway, so it was better to go to other places to plant medicine, so that it would be convenient for Huo Zongtang to treat his illness in the future.

was going to leave this place where he had lived for decades, but Huo's father and Huo's mother were unwilling. But when he heard that this matter was conducive to Huo Zongtang's treatment, the second elder came to the spirit and packed his luggage with him.

"But why the rush?"

Huo Zongtang had no choice but to continue to make up excuses and said: "There are not many medicinal fields for growing medicines, but there are many people who are fighting. In order not to make a mistake, Dr. Wu has already booked a plane ticket for us, so you can be wronged. ”

Although Huo's father and Huo's mother had some doubts in their hearts, they still listened to their son's words.

Taking advantage of the heavy night, the family changed trains a few times and came to the train station. From the train station, all the way to the airport. Along the way, Huo Zongtang gave full play to his anti-investigation skills, and after confirming that no one was following, he accompanied his parents to board the plane.

This time he went outside the province, he found a place with good mountains and rivers for his parents in the mountains of Shonan and rented a house. The air inside and outside is fresh, there are flowers and trees, and the environment is extremely beautiful. It is only a few kilometers away from the medicine mountain where medicine is grown. Huo's father and Huo's mother liked this place very much, so Huo Zongtang signed a one-year contract in one go and paid the rent in full.

In addition, for the convenience of his parents, he bought a car of tens of thousands of yuan for the second elder. Before leaving, he gave them another 100,000 yuan for self-defense.

In this way, the 900,000 on the body was removed from 200,000.

Three days later, Huo Zongtang, who had settled his parents, returned to the True Martial Arts Academy. At this time, the True Martial Arts Academy, because of Huo Zongtang's initiative to challenge Hodge, fell into a whirlpool of public opinion. Huo Zongtang, as the representative of the freshmen, actually took the initiative to invite Hodge, who was in the second grade, and the news fermented, which made the atmosphere between the first-year freshmen and the second-year old students of Zhenwu a little delicate.

Many old students have a little unkind look in their eyes when they see the first-year freshmen. Between the students of the two grades, there were even some sporadic conflicts and brawls because of the competition for sports venues, queues in the canteen, pickling girls, etc.

These conflicts, like the prelude to the upcoming cross-level battle, add a bit of excitement to this challenge that the whole school has watched.

Huo Zongtang went to the pharmacy again to buy a few medium-grade hundred-year-old wild ginseng, plus some medicines needed for martial arts training, and purple wolf jerky, this time, he spent another 300,000 yuan. The one million I earned from selling beauty poems spent 600,000 yuan in a few days, which is like a lot of money.

He once again hid on the second floor of the library to retreat, and all the noise and distraction were left behind him. I don't hear anything outside the window, and I concentrate on learning literature and practicing martial arts.

When he hid, even Bai Xiaolong and Zhu Bajiao couldn't find him.

On the other side, Hodge, another focal point of the battle, was also in a mood during this time. First, it was Huo Zongtang who humiliated his father in public, which made him angry and uncontrollable. Second, he received a piece of news that he didn't know whether it was good or bad.

The envoy of the Jinghai Huo family, who was originally scheduled to arrive in a few months, suddenly announced that he would come to Shaocheng in advance. When the envoy arrives, he must choose one of Huo Zongtang and Huo Qi to enter the next round of assessment of Huo Yuanjia's national selection of apprentices. In this way, the duel between Huo Zongtang and Hodge may become an opportunity for the envoy to evaluate them.

The original plan to defeat Huo Zongtang before the arrival of the envoy, and even take advantage of the opportunity of the competition to injure and cripple Huo Zongtang, now seems to have to make new adjustments.

Under the guidance of his teacher Huo Xilai, Hodge's cultivation has been extremely hard in recent times.

His teacher, Huo Xilai, used to be an inner disciple of the Jinghai Huo family, and he had a master's degree in martial arts. But Huo Xilai was hot-tempered and unruly when he was young, and his relationship with his master was not good. Later, in order to make quick money, he took risks and went to Macau to play black market boxing. Over the past few years, although he has made a lot of money, he has been injured. Now that he is old, he has washed his hands of gold, turned to work as a tutor, and lived a stable life.

Three years ago, he became Hodge's personal tutor. Because they are both children of the Huo family, they are strong in martial arts, and they have the same temper as Hodge's father and son, and after a few years, they have become a teacher and friend with Hodge.

Seeing that Hodge was facing the biggest challenge in his life, he was also very cautious and nervous, and almost took out all the skills and experience in his life, eager to stuff it into Hodge's mind overnight.

That night, he saw that Hodge seemed a little absent-minded about his boxing practice, so he stopped lecturing and talked to him in the practice arena.

"At the moment of the big war, you are not concentrating, this is a big taboo."

Hodge looked at the broken wooden planks and broken bricks all over the room, and said, "Teacher, you have been teaching me some hurtful and yin black boxing techniques recently, although the power is powerful, but I always feel that some are not above board. ”

Huo Xilai sneered and said: "On the battlefield, there is only victory and defeat, life and death, and it doesn't matter whether the means are light or dark. Besides, no poison no husband! That Huo Zongtang humiliated your father, and he wanted to compete with you to be the apprentice of the Jinghai Huo family, can you swallow this breath? If you only rely on your set of Huo family's outer door boxing techniques, it doesn't hurt or itch, even if you win Huo Zongtang, you won't hurt him much. ”

"These black boxing techniques I've taught you are different. It doesn't look flashy, and it's even denounced by the defenders as vicious and vicious, but it's extremely practical. You only need to use these skills in your Huo family fist, and one or two heavy hands during the battle, then Huo Zongtang will not be crippled, and he will also leave a dark disease. This is tantamount to planting one or two bombs for his future cultivation. In the future, he will never have a chance to threaten you, this is the way to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and never suffer in the future! ”

Hodge thought for a moment, a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes. "Thank you for the teacher's advice, I was taught!"

Huo Xilai sat cross-legged on the futon, slowly rubbing the bulging green tendons on his hands, as well as a long scar. "Although Huo Zongtang's current rank is not as good as yours, he has grown too fast, and he is indeed a tricky opponent. However, I have a way to make sure that this fight is a sure win. ”

Hodge's eyes lit up: "Oh? Is there a way to win? Please also ask the teacher for advice! ”

There was a hint of murder in Huo Xilai's eyes. "That is to kidnap Huo Zongtang's parents and hold their lives in their hands! When you get to the battlefield, let Huo Zongtang listen to the news again, hehe...... If it's you, do you want to win, or do you want to save your parents' lives? ”

Hodge took a long breath of cold air. No matter how ruthless he is, he is just a high school student. Hearing such a crazy and ruthless plan, I still feel too cold and ruthless.

Huo Xilai smiled and said, "You can't do it, right?" It doesn't matter, this dirty thing, I can do it for you. ”

Hodge was silent for a moment, then bowed and said, "Then please teacher." After this is done, my father and I will repay the teacher well. ”

Hochlai smiled with satisfaction. "The children can be taught, this is like my students."

In the dead of night, the old buildings in the old factory area are now in a dead silence.

A dark shadow climbed over the fence and came to the building where Huo Qiang's family lived. Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, the shadow carefully examined the number of the stairwell, and then slipped in silently like a tanuki.

Smack! With a slight crisp sound, the yellowed wooden door of the Huo family was suddenly opened secretly from the outside.

The shadow walked to the bed in the only room with his hands behind his back. The bed was empty, no one was there. The shadow was silent for a moment, and then walked around the tiny room again. This humble home was empty.

He crouched down and reached out on the ground and touched it, a layer of dust on his hand. This means that the house has not been inhabited for a long time.

The black shadow snorted coldly. "This kid is cunning!"

He swept away the footprints on the ground, restored the door to its original state, then turned around and slowly closed the door.

Within two weeks, new news about the "Huo Family Civil War" was constantly released.

At the beginning, someone shook out the background of Hodge's teacher, Huo Xilai. This person has been fighting underground black market boxing for several years, and his style is brave and cunning, and his boxing skills are practical and ruthless, and his lethality is strong. The general number of martial arts paths, in the face of this kind of boxing method dedicated to killing, is simply vulnerable.

It is said that Hoochlai has been conducting special training for Hodge recently, and the essence of black market boxing has been taught to Hodge.

Some students who were close to Huo Zongtang couldn't help but secretly worry about Huo Zongtang when they heard the news. It's a pity that Huo Zongtang is still in retreat on the second floor of the library, and he can't find anyone if he wants to report the news.

Later, new news came out that Hodge chose the war beast as his opponent in order to stimulate his potential. In the process of special training, he actually injured a Tibetan mastiff weighing more than 100 catties with his own hands. Although this kind of Tibetan mastiff is only the most ordinary first-class war beast, it has a resolute character, wild and untamable, powerful and fierce, and sometimes has a record of hurting people.

Hodge was able to fight a Tibetan mastiff with his bare hands, which shows that his martial arts strength has become stronger and stronger.

Immediately afterwards, news came that it was said that the envoy of the Huo family from Jinghai, Tianjin, had arrived in Shaocheng. This envoy is an inner disciple of the Huo family, who once served as a soldier, and after retiring from the army, he became an armed police instructor. Now he is a coach under the Jinghai Jingwu Sect. Being able to be an instructor under the Huo family, who is powerful and mastery, can be seen that his strength is by no means simple.

It is said that Hodge has asked to see him three times with generous gifts, but he has never had the opportunity to meet this person. As soon as this person arrived in Shaocheng, he lived in the Haowu Hall of the Shaocheng Martial Arts Association, living in a simple place, and his whereabouts were mysterious.

Such a mysterious gesture, coupled with the prestige of the Jinghai Jingwu Sect that shook the world, made people feel a little more awe of this messenger.

After arriving in Shaocheng, this person only released a message: A week later, the battle between Huo Zongtang and Hodge was personally presided over by him. The winner will participate in the next round of assessment in Lingnan Province as the representative of the children surnamed Huo in Shaocheng.

The specific time has also been set. A week later, Wednesday, at nine a.m. The location is in the "martial arts arena" of the True Martial Arts Academy.

It is said that for this matter, the high-level leaders of the Shaocheng Martial Arts Association and the True Martial Arts Academy have rushed out one after another and made a lot of communication and preparations in advance. Although this is not the official competition of the Municipal Martial Arts Association, several world-famous golden signboards such as Huo Yuanjia, Jinghai Huo Jia, and Jingwumen are placed there, and the entire Shaocheng Martial Arts attaches great importance to this matter.

After the Huo family's envoy released the news, the countdown to the decisive battle began immediately.

Just less than three days before the battle, Huo Lao Wu's family came out with another shocking news: Huo Qi had successfully broken through the seventh stage of the martial arts rookie!

A second-year student actually broke through the rookie seventh stage, what kind of concept is this! In the third grade of Zhenwu, there are only ten people who have reached this level of martial arts at most!

After this news came out, the momentum on Hodge's side was even higher. Also, since Huo Zongtang announced that he was challenging Hodge, Hodge's side has continued to spread all kinds of good news, which has been accumulated, and now there is a kind of momentum like a rainbow and a power that overwhelms others before fighting. On the contrary, Huo Zongtang's side has been silent, and so far, there has not been even a single news......

Doesn't he want to win?

At this time, Huo Zongtang was still in retreat on the second floor of the library.

At this stage, he consumed 300,000 pieces of wild ginseng, purple wolf jerky, and some other precious medicines, and made great progress in terms of martial arts.

Refining intentions, determinations, those soul seeds, the quality has been further improved, and the bronze glow has become more and more obvious.

The mind was exiled in the void, and the time for determination was further doubled from about ten seconds to twenty seconds. In this process, in order to replenish the power of the literary soul, he continued to study frantically, and it can be said that he has almost completed all the famous articles that he needs to master in the graduation examination.

In terms of martial arts, he insisted on practicing qi, through the intersection of the earth essence qi and the clear qi of the sky, spitting out the old and absorbing the new, metabolism, while detoxifying and descaling the body, greatly consolidating and cultivating the body's vitality.

In the last retreat, he was able to inhale like a snake and exhale like an arrow, and draw a breath into his abdomen, with which he could do Tai Chi for six or seven minutes.

This time he was in retreat again, he sat on the huge windowsill, took a breath, the air in the air writhed like a wild python, and the branches of the trees a few meters away could be pulled by him, and the branches and leaves shook wildly; Exhale, the white gas in the air is **** like practice, and the stamina is rolling endlessly, which is very long.

Now holding his breath in the dantian, he can fight for ten minutes in a row without breathing. The thickening of the breath can be seen.

When practicing, a large piece of white gauze hanging in front of him, after a period of practice and descaling, has formed a layer of gray and white dirt, with an unpleasant smell.

On the other hand, Huo Zongtang himself, not only has his body strength grown, his muscles have become thicker and stronger, but the breath between ordinary breaths and between his mouth and teeth seems to have a fresh aroma, and the effect of practicing qi is very obvious.

With two days left before the battle, he left the second floor of the library.
