Chapter 20: The Second Challenge...... (Collect!) )
From this day on, Chen Xiang moved out of the courtyard where the little handyman was located, moved to the courtyard of the senior servant, and had his own small courtyard, and the food and clothes were also improved a lot, and he was able to eat enough every day. And he began to learn kung fu with his senior brother Lu Kun every morning, mainly including basic skills and basic sword moves, and in the afternoon, he exercised by himself, it seemed that Wanfu was very kind to him, and the treatment was particularly good, but Chen Xiang himself knew that the martial arts that this senior brother Lu Kun taught himself were very common, and the progress was very slow, and he didn't teach himself well at all.
Chen Xiang felt that it seemed that Wan Zhenshan's intention to drive himself away had not been broken, so what would he do next? On the surface, he treats himself so benevolently and righteously, gives himself such a good treatment, and does not urge himself to learn martial arts at all, which is naturally to indulge himself, and then find a dangerous opportunity to send himself to death, so that he can get the reputation of Zhi'en Tu Bao again, and he can kill himself under a suitable excuse, which is a very suitable means.
Chen Xiang couldn't help but be cautious, and began to carefully collect intelligence everywhere, and did a lot of analysis on the next step.
Wanfu is a family of rivers and lakes, in addition to having a part of the land and being a local middle-class landlord, their main source of income is to participate in some things on the rivers and lakes, such as sending disciples to participate in the bodyguards of important people, as a land snake to enjoy some gifts for dart games that go south and north, or they also operate some profiteering transactions such as private salt.
Chen Xiang guessed that he was afraid that his next test would be on these things.
When the senior brother Lu Kun taught his own swordsmanship very well, and relaxed his discipline, and when he encountered a strong opponent, he pushed himself forward, gave a cut of the bandit and water bandits, killed him on the road, and threw it away, no one knew what was going on, and the infamy of Wanfu was cleared, who let this kid not practice martial arts well, and finally failed to learn the arts, and was killed? The idea of wanting to make a name for himself in the rivers and lakes was his own, but he was ambitious and talented, and he was finally killed, which is also because this little beggar has a thin life, and Wanfu has tried his best, which is really convenient. Maybe you can get the sympathy of the majority of friends on the rivers and lakes.
Chen Xiang's guess is right, in this world, it is very normal for the rivers and lakes to kill, and it is also accepted by everyone, Wanfu is indeed preparing to be weaker in the limelight, and after everyone almost forgets about this matter, they will push Chen Xiang out and send him to death to get rid of this disgusting guy.
With this realization, Chen Xiang strengthened his training, and after learning from Lu Kun, he also took the initiative to ask several other senior brothers for advice, especially Qi Fang, who lived in Wanfu, for swordsmanship, because Qi Fang was the only one who sincerely taught him swordsmanship. The others seemed to know what Wanfu had planned for Chen Xiang after that. Now Chen Xiang is basically in a state of neglect in Wanfu. He also asked Qi Fang for some sword tricks from time to time, and so far, he has the best relationship with Qi Fang among the Ten Thousand Mansions.
In addition, Chen Xiang also obtained Yan Daping's more advanced Tang poetry swordsmanship by constantly reporting various things in Wanfu to Yan Daping, and his kung fu did not fall behind during this period of time.
Chen Xiang secretly learned swordsmanship from Yan Daping, in order to win Chen Xiang's trust, Yan Daping deliberately taught Chen Xiang all the advanced sword moves, so that he could understand that the old boy in Wan Zhenshan was indeed not kind, and the person who was really good to him was still this old beggar.
He learned sword moves from three places, and constantly compared these three sword moves, constantly refining his own sword moves.
In this way, it was much more convenient for him to learn the Liancheng Sword Technique with Yan Daping on the same side. Compared with the two, it was indeed Yan Daping who taught him the Liancheng swordsmanship that was more sophisticated. At the same time, he also showed more friendship and loyalty to Yan Daping, and told Yan Daping all the details of Wanfu, which also made Yan Daping feel a lot more relieved.
That's it, Chen Xiang survived in Wanfu in a low-key manner, completely indifferent to endure others picking on him and finding faults, and stayed in Wanfu desperately, so that his luck continued to absorb, making his own life more solid, and the silky life grid was no longer intermittent, but became more continuous.
The reason why Yan Daping dared to teach the Liancheng Sword Technique directly to Chen Xiang was to directly bury a mine in the rear of Wan Zhen Mountain, when this mine exploded, Yan Daping dared to be sure that this must be a strange move, Chen Xiang, who had learned advanced sword moves, could definitely give Wan Zhen Mountain a huge damage that could not be ignored, and then it would definitely bring him the final victory.
What's more, when he taught Chen Xiang, although he taught him the real Liancheng sword technique, he still left some backhand, hid the fatal flaws of some sword moves, and deliberately did not teach him. If one day, this Chen Xiang is also reversed, Yan Daping can solve him in one move.
Time passed slowly, and Chen Xiang also began to officially practice kung fu. But he also knows that he is practicing like this out of thin air, and it is difficult to improve his kung fu, and he also needs a process to let the people of Wanfu know that his kung fu is naturally increased and improved, so that when his kung fu is improved to a certain level, it will not arouse the suspicion of others.
From the first day of learning swords, he brought the wooden sword he used to practice swordsmanship to the courtyard where he used to live. Coincidentally, the leader of the miscellaneous workers who had been looking for trouble with him before was supervising a group of long-term workers there, his eyes flashed, and when he saw Chen Xiang coming over, the anger and unhappiness in his heart suddenly swelled up, and he whistled, and all his subordinates surrounded him, especially him, who came over with his fists clenched, and said viciously: "What? Do you still have the guts to come over?! Don't think about leaving when you're here today! Do you know how bad you hurt our brother?! ”
Chen Xiang said with a smile: "Yes, I came here this time to ask a few of you for kung fu!" ”
The handyman sneered and said in a strange voice: "Ho! You're here with a guy! Brothers, let's copy the guys too! As he spoke, he picked up a flat pole from the side and smashed it at Chen Xiang.
How could Chen Xiang be hit by such an attack? As soon as he made a mistake in his footsteps, he dodged the attack of this flat burden, and with a shake of his hand, the long sword was like a poisonous snake out of a hole, and it was fiercely pointed at the chest of this miscellaneous servant, and his blood was churning, and his chest was extremely painful, and he immediately staggered back two steps. Then Chen Xiang drew a big circle and hit the handyman's hands directly on the flat shoulder, and his two hands directly swollen up, directly hitting the flat pole in his hand to the ground.
Chen Xiang sneered and said: "This is the desert I just learned, and the long river is round." Please give me advice! After speaking, he raised his wooden sword and fought with the group of miscellaneous servants around him. However, he went back and forth, using the same trick: "The desert is lonely, and the long river is round." It can be seen that he is indeed using this group of miscellaneous servants to try to recruit.
Soon, Chen Xiang beat the group of miscellaneous servants to the ground, each of them had a few blue and purple scars, but they didn't hurt their muscles and bones, just lay on the ground and hummed.
The leader of the miscellaneous servants looked at Chen Xiang viciously, but Chen Xiang smiled indifferently and said, "Thank you for giving me a try!" Seeing the vicious eyes of the leader of the miscellaneous servants, he walked over with a smile, kicked him directly in the face, kicked off all his front teeth, and flew to the side, shining red in the sun.
After being kicked like this, the leader of the miscellaneous men screamed on the ground like a pig, clutching his mouth and rolling around. Chen Xiang said lightly: "I'll come back tomorrow, I hope you are physically and mentally prepared." ”
After speaking, Chen Xiang left with Shi Shiran. From then on, every time Chen Xiang learned a sword move, he would use this sword move on this group of miscellaneous servants, so through actual combat, he practiced his swordsmanship more purely, and gained some actual combat experience, those miscellaneous servants couldn't hide if they wanted to, Chen Xiang could always find them, and these miscellaneous servants didn't know what they could do after leaving Wanfu, and because of the unfavorable work last time, they were very unpopular with Master Wan, it was really impossible to go to heaven, there was no way to go to the ground, and anyone who saw it hid, and it had reached the lowest point in life. Every day he was brutally beaten, and it was extremely miserable.
Chen Xiang also beat those miscellaneous servants until he hid when he saw him, and he had reached the kind of psychological situation when Jin Wancai met Chen Xiang, so he was basically satisfied. In this way, with the fear and obedience of the miscellaneous servants to Chen Xiang, Chen Xiang's life character became more stable.
After Wan Zhenshan learned about this, he broke a teacup again, but he also strengthened his determination to drive this damn little beggar away, thinking to himself, next time I am afraid that it will not be the person who drove you away, but your life! Thinking of this, after making the decision to kill Chen Xiang, Wan Zhenshan no longer deliberately went to find trouble with Chen Xiang, but let him go, using this method to further paralyze Chen Xiang's nerves, so that when necessary, he killed him unexpectedly.
About three months later, the limelight passed again, and after the hot spots on the rivers and lakes were gradually attracted away by other things, Wanfu's actions seemed to start again.
In the past three months, the senior brother Lu Kun has just taught Chen Xiang a complete set of "Wan's Tang Poetry Swordsmanship", after Lu Kun taught Chen Xiang's swordsmanship, he sat on the chair on the side, drank tea leisurely, took two sips comfortably, and then said lightly: "Chen Xiang, you have been in our Wanfu for half a year, and you have learned all the swordsmanship, and now there is a task to be handed over to you." ”
Chen Xiang was shocked in his heart, knowing that the drama meat was coming, this would be his second challenge, after the challenge, he could naturally improve a little more, and if he failed, he would probably die.
He immediately saluted Lu Kun and said, "I don't know what task Senior Brother wants to arrange for me?" ”
