The autumn breeze lingers, and one morning after half a year.

The imperial capital, in a small garden pavilion in the glorious imperial palace.

With the 'squeak' of autumn cicadas on the treetops in the courtyard, the 'murmuring' of blue waves in the pond around the nearby rockery.

Zhao Zhou, who was at the stone table in the pavilion, drank a cup of clear medicinal soup, closed his eyes and thought for a few breaths, stood up, took a handful of fish food handed over by the palace maid next to him, and still entered the vicinity of a few carps in the pond next to him, causing the fish to swim first.

Zhao Zhou threw away the fish food, took a few more steps, came to the courtyard clearing, took the delicate wooden sword handed by a eunuch, reflected the cool shade of the nearby trees, and began to perform various swordsmanship moves.

Whew-

There were also several palace maids standing next to them, holding a pu fan to help Zhao Zhou gently blow the cool breeze.

At this time, Zhao Zhou seemed to be as leisurely as the prince of any family.

In the same way, Zhao Zhou also stayed in this palace compound for half a year, and did not take a step, as if he had long forgotten the plan to clean up the rivers and lakes.

But in fact.

After listening to the seal for half a year, Zhao Zhou was named the 'Positive Three Rank Patrol Envoy' by the Holy Lord, in fact, he wanted to prepare to go back to the house to rest and recuperate, and then kill the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, clear the evil demons, and then summarize the elixir cheats.

But.

The saint also read that day in Zhao Zhou to contribute, and heard the father-in-law say, 'Lord Zhao killed a hundred damage Taoists, and his strength is a must', but it was Longyan Dayue who gave him a reward, and let his father-in-law send a lot of elixirs and treasures to Zhao Zhou.

And the meaning of the saint is also very simple, first, he wants Zhao Zhou to add martial arts and make his internal strength stronger. The second is to let Zhao Zhou have a few more life-saving methods.

Sanna, it is to win over the heart of this 'loyal minister' again.

Anyway, thinking about it, these things in his treasure house can't be brought in life or death, so why not take advantage of someone to help him now, and give them as gifts, which can be regarded as useful.

Thereupon.

Half a year ago, Zhao Zhou got these elixir treasures, and he thought that he came to this world to use the resources of the palace to cultivate.

Then, when this thing was complete, he felt that he was running around again and pulling those 'poor' sects. It's better to take these treasures and practice martial arts in the imperial capital.

But actually, there is a more important point.

It was still half a year ago, the owner of the Dragon Guardian Villa and the other four half-step grandmasters did not go to court on the day Zhao Zhou heard the seal, but had been hunting in the suburbs, as if they didn't have to deal with government affairs during this time, and they were quite 'not doing their jobs'.

Zhao Zhou also noticed that these people did not return to the court, and after thinking about it a little, he knew that the time of 'tearing his face' came earlier than he imagined. If there is no risk in going out of the city, no one will believe it.

Especially.

Zhao Zhou has been practicing boxing for decades, and he knows that he is forbearing, and before his own strength does not meet expectations, he will definitely not 'go out of the city' to provoke these 'half-step grandmasters', and by the way, he will risk that 'guessing torn face'.

Because, he knows how to be ruthless, and he doesn't dare to guarantee whether these characters really tear their faces, and after seeing himself, he doesn't say a word, he just doesn't want to let himself go.

Especially these are still four people, after Zhao Zhou left the city, he was a dozen four!

So, Zhao Zhou's plan changed, practicing first, and then talking about things.

Again, it was not as he expected.

The four half-step grandmasters also saw that Zhao Zhou provoked the 'Jianghu Incident' on such a large scale, and was promoted to the rank of the Holy Lord, and the Hundred Losses Daoist was killed, and then they knew that Zhao Zhou's 'general trend' had been achieved, and they were even more afraid that Zhao Zhou would rob them of the rights in the hands of themselves and others.

Therefore, they discussed it privately and decided to prepare to prevent Zhao Zhou from 'going out of the city', and if necessary, they would use some 'means' to prevent Zhao Zhou's future official position from being greater than theirs.

And Zhao Zhou also thought like this under the circumstance of avoiding disasters and seeking blessings, and he did not live in his own 'inspection mansion' half a year ago, but came to the palace compound.

Because Zhao Zhou felt that it would not be too safe to practice at home.

Of course, in Zhao Zhou's mind, he was not afraid of them. It's just like what I thought about when I came to this world, and I have long wanted to practice in the palace and practice steadily.

Then when you are done, you will talk to them one by one.

And that day.

Zhao Zhou explained the situation of 'this siege' to the saint, and said that he wanted to live in the palace for a while, first break through the 'internal force realm', and then 'go out of the city to settle the people and establish the world'.

The Holy Lord could also understand that they wanted to prevent Zhao Zhou from 'leaving the city', and then agreed, but did not reprimand them for doing so.

After all, as long as the Holy One says this, it will be a symptom rather than a cure, and it will only lead to more 'secret fights'.

And on the same day.

Since Zhao Zhou lived in the palace, he has basically not left an inch for half a year, except for practicing exercises.

To put it bluntly, Zhao Zhou didn't want to do this, but he wanted to clear the demons in the rivers and lakes.

But he did too many 'big things' during this time, and he didn't realize it, so he drew a 'dead end' for himself.

Although if he insists on going out, it is not so serious that he will be 'killed', but he will always be forced out of this 'world of rivers and lakes' by these people in advance.

Ultimately. That's still not strong enough, a little uncomfortable.

can be regarded as being forced by them, so that Zhao Zhou has saved a lot of useless plot tasks in the past six months, and has been forcibly 'banned' in the imperial capital, and has practiced for half a year!

Similarly, seven days after Zhao Zhou lived in the palace, the four grandmasters also returned to the imperial capital.

And they didn't say anything when they came back, let alone talk to Zhao Zhou in the palace. But the meaning is obvious, with them, Zhao Zhou has already made a lot of credit, it's time to 'rest', don't go too far.

with this.

And they're not the only ones.

The people on the rivers and lakes, no matter what kind of famous sect they are, or the half-step grandmaster in the sect, after they heard the news that Zhao Zhou not only broke the rules, but also destroyed the Iron Sword Gate in half a year, they were even more shocked and inexplicable, and the rivers and lakes were a sensation!

can't be called hate, but he also gritted his teeth.

But they also heard that Zhao Zhou 'stayed at home' and could not enter the imperial capital, which was no different from rebellion.

In particular, there are still six half-step grandmasters in the imperial capital. If they want to come, they have to weigh it carefully.

At most, they can only keep an eye on Zhao Zhou's actions, and as long as Zhao Zhou is out of the city, they will say the charter and send someone to assassinate him.

Unexpectedly, this imperial court and rivers and lakes, one inside and one outside, still insisted on 'sealing' Zhao Zhou in the imperial city, allowing him to start his carefree practice in peace.

But what they didn't know was that Zhao Zhou had also successfully completed the second fire tribulation in the past six months! The lifting strength reached a full 40,000 catties!

Again, such an 'explosive power' growth is certainly impossible for everyone to think. Because they didn't know that Zhao Zhou's cultivation system was different from theirs.

But if they really knew, they would not let Zhao Zhou practice so quickly, but would 'impeach' to the saint, let Zhao Zhou go to 'clear the sect', and then kill him on the way.

However. Whatever it is.

After Zhao Zhou's second strength was perfected, he also opened the third fire tribulation ten days ago, and it was also the last fire tribulation before he calculated the 'wind disaster'.

But when this 'fire tribulation' melted, Zhao Zhou found that he did not suddenly greatly increase his strength, but his entire body was greatly improved!

In simple terms.

It's just that the muscles and veins in his body have increased a little, making his six senses more acute, and the 'resonance' divine power has also increased from five times to a full six times the aura absorption!

Especially when his father-in-law came to deliver medicine a few days ago, Zhao Zhou also accosted his father-in-law. I found that my 'eyes' can already capture my father-in-law's body movements, and my hands and feet can completely keep up!

Thereupon.

Today.

Zhao Zhou can also deduce that now he must be a master of the Battle Heaven List and will not fall behind.

Because, the father-in-law's learning is a sunflower treasure book, and he is known for his light skills!

And now that he can observe his father-in-law's body moves, how can he be afraid of others.

Unless they step into the realm of the grandmaster, use their internal force to hit more than 100,000 catties, or fly in the sky.

Otherwise, on this ground, since Zhao Zhou can capture their figures, and with the blessing of dozens of tons of fist strength, only they are afraid of Zhao Zhou.

"In the past six months, I can be regarded as having achieved positive results under their 'captivity'."

In the courtyard, Zhao Zhou leisurely performed swordsmanship, polished it a few times, sorted out what he had gained, and began to summarize the comparison of his strength improvement since he came to this world.

"And after I came to this Jianghu, I was ranked by the land list, and I was the first to be in the hundredth."

"But if the self has fulfilled all the supernatural powers, it should be counted as within fifty. Killing the Iron Sword Gate, the second strength is not considered complete, it is considered ten years ago. ”

"A month ago, I had a round strength, and I should be between the two lists of heaven and earth.."

"But now. I opened the third tribulation, but it is enough to be called a half-step grandmaster in the heavenly ranks..."

Zhao Zhou put away his sword moves, pondered for a few breaths, and then looked out of the courtyard that he hadn't stepped out of for half a year, "And what I think now." If I go out of this imperial city or outside, there should be no one in this world who can stop me Zhao Zhou. ”

'Click'

Zhao Zhou thought about it, and he also stopped the swordsmanship move in his hand.

And the eunuch next to him saw it, as if he knew that this 'patrol envoy', who had not been out for half a year, had now practiced swordsmanship and wanted swordsmanship. Then he hurriedly brought a wooden knife with a detailed carving, and wanted to replace the wooden sword.

Similarly, these delicate weapons are all from Zhao Zhou's hands.

It was since he was promoted to 'Inspector', and during the half a year he spent in the Ouchi Palace, he usually had nothing to do, so he found some firewood to carve it by himself, which was regarded as passing the time.

Listen to it.

It can be seen that Zhao Zhou has been a little sad in the past six months, how can he still be as leisurely as a prince and a prince?

But.

Zhao Zhou put down the long sword in his hand at this time, and waved his hand to reject the long knife in the eunuch's hand, but walked next to a palace maid, lifted the plate held in front of her, and took out a dark purple snake gall the size of a red date.

"I didn't expect that the Bodhisattva Qu Snake in the Condor Canyon also existed in the palace. And this snake was also kept in captivity by the Holy Lord in the palace, and the Holy Lord also gave me more than 10 of them three months ago. ”

And this snake is also recorded in some Buddhist scriptures, with a faint golden light, a head with fleshy horns, and walks like the wind. Take its snake gall to obey it, you can increase the internal force, and it can temper the flesh. It is simply a martial arts elixir that specializes in cultivating one's own body. ”

"Even if I take one now, it is equivalent to eating half a 500-year-old ginseng, which has extraordinary medicinal power, and I don't need to eat for ten days. In particular, without the abundant medicinal power of these snake galls, I would not have been able to open a third fire in such a quick time. ”

Zhao Zhou pondered, and when he ate snake gall bladder and felt the warm feeling in his body, he also waved his hand to let everyone around him retreat.

And he thought about it for a while, raised his feet and walked towards the outside of the hospital, which had not been set out for half a year, ready to start his own cleaning plan, which could be regarded as repaying the 'grace of medicinal herbs' of the saint.

He has been staying for half a year, and now he sees that 'the time has come', and he has long wanted to go out for a 'walk'.

"Why did the inspector get out of the hospital today?" These palace maids and eunuchs were surprised when they saw Zhao Zhou walking out of the courtyard, but they didn't talk in a whisper.

But as Zhao Zhou walked out of the courtyard gate, he walked towards the side hall where he had been nearly a year ago.

A minister who also wanted to visit the Holy Lord turned a corner in the corridor of the palace, and saw Zhao Zhou in front of him in the next moment, but he was surprised by 'sigh', I don't know why Zhao Zhou 'dared' to come out?

"Isn't this Zhao Zhou afraid of being seen by the master of the Zhuang Factory, and then bombing him back? Do you want to lose face? The minister of Zheng Erpin thought in his heart, and did not step forward to talk to Zhao Zhou, but turned around and turned back, as if he wanted to make a small report to someone.

However, Zhao Zhou can now be called fearless, let alone a half-step grandmaster.

At this time, he noticed that this man was leaving, and he didn't care, and then went to the court, wanting to say something to the saint.

But it's a coincidence.

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard of the palace, the saint also walked out of the hall with the support of his father-in-law.

"Holy." When Zhao Zhou saw this, he hugged his fists and saluted, there was no nonsense at all, and he said bluntly: "Zhao Zhou heard that the six major sects are going to encircle and suppress Guangming Ding after a month, and then Zhao Zhou wants to take this opportunity to wipe out these thieves."

"Good." Sheng Shang nodded, "Yes." Why? ”

The saint didn't ask Zhao Zhou why he knew, but asked Zhao Zhou what he needed, because this 'big thing' was known to the whole world as early as a month ago, and even the people in the palace had heard about it.

"Thousand Riders." Zhao Zhou held his hand, "As long as a thousand horses surround the mountain, Zhao Zhou will definitely not let one go." ”

"Point pie." The saint took out the jade pendant, "The father-in-law ordered a thousand people to follow the patrol envoy." ”

"Yes!" The father-in-law should have been, first supporting the saint and then returning to the temple to rest, and then he and Zhao Zhou went to send guards again.

And then tidy up, sort out the horses, heavy crossbows, swords and swords.

Zhao Zhou led the thousand horsemen out of the palace gate, and also went back to his own inspector's mansion, bringing with him the hundred horses that had been in the inspector's mansion for half a year.

"Inspector!" When they were practicing in the practice ground, they saw Zhao Zhou coming back and hurriedly saluted.

"Inspector!" Lin Pingzhi also practiced the Nine Yin True Scripture in half a year, plus the Xuanming Divine Palm, and his martial arts were also mentioned in the fourth layer of the day after tomorrow, and his qualifications were already considered good in this side of the rivers and lakes.

Four years will step into the congenital.

"Let's go." Zhao Zhou acted vigorously and resolutely, called hundreds of people to prepare, and then gathered thousands of horsemen outside the mansion and went straight to the outside of the city.

And he was not hindered in the city, and soon went out of the city gate, ready to run in the direction of the Bright Peak.

It's just that.

Before Zhao Zhou walked out of the city gate, he saw an old man with a white face and a eunuch uniform standing on the official road, as if he had been waiting for him any longer.

"Stop." Zhao Zhou waved his hand to stop Qianqi, and he rode forward, stood ten feet away from him, dismounted and clenched his fists.

"Factory Father."

"Inspector Zhao." The old man returned the gift, and it was the factory father. It was only after being notified by the minister who made the report that he rushed here to wait.

Again, it's not just him.

The owner of the village and others also guarded the other three city gates, just to block Zhao Zhou and prevent him from stirring up trouble again, and then increase the official and enter the knighthood, affecting the rights and interests of himself and others.

"Inspector Zhao. Where are you going now? The factory asked in return, and his face was amiable, and he couldn't see why. I just want Zhao Zhou to go back to the palace and be a third-grade official safely.

"Demon Killer Guardian Road." Zhao Zhou also looked still, looking at the factory duke quietly, and ordered Qianqi, "You wait to take the first step." ”

"Yes!" The guards listened to his orders, because they didn't know so many ways, but thought that the inspector was going to talk to the factory about something important, and they really took the first step.

"Inspector Zhao." The factory prince didn't care that the guards on both sides rode away around them, because as long as he suppressed Zhao Zhou, he would have enough time to catch up with them.

"It's too late to stop." The factory man persuaded again, "The people in the rivers and lakes didn't offend you, and they couldn't move the people." When the time comes, it's going to be troublesome. ”

"Factory, it's not too late for you to give way." Zhao Zhou also persuaded with good words, "Regardless of whether they have a master or not, you don't want to be on the same list as that evil demon." ”

"Zhao Zhou!" When the factory heard that Zhao Zhou said that he was an evil demon, he choked up, because no one in the court dared to say that.

But the big thing is important, the factory man thought about it, and still thought about it for the sake of being an official in the same dynasty as Zhao Zhou, and said in a slow tone: "You are going to kill someone." Where is the Demon Removal Guardian? ”

He said, and his tone was slightly heavier, "You are clearly going to the world of cholera!" ”

"Factory father, don't be open-mouthed." Zhao Zhou's expression straightened, "It is you who do not obey the will of the saint that will let the people in the countryside be oppressed by the remnants of the rivers and lakes." ”

"Oh?" The factory snorted, and the sonic boom was 100 meters, as if he wanted to wake up Zhao Zhou,

"The people of the political dynasty have thousands of plans. Officials are only one in 10,000, who can completely manage killing people and setting fires? ”

"Whether it's dead or alive, it's their ability to say it's not good, but it's their fate!"

"Just like Liu Bowen said, success lies in people, and it is in heaven to make things.."

"It's the ethereal providence!"

"Providence." Zhao Zhou stood with his hands in his hands, indifferent, "Then I am their providence now." ”

"You.." Seeing that Zhao Zhou did not repent and did not listen to his own advice, the factory man immediately laughed angrily, and then he didn't want to say more, the internal force was vast, and a fist mark of one zhang size was instantly formed in mid-air, which slashed straight towards Zhao Zhou, wanting to wake up Zhao Zhou and bring him back to the palace to sober up.

"Inspector, you have fallen into the devil, let our family take you back to the palace to recuperate for a few days." The factory man controlled a lot of force, and this blow was enough to seriously injure Zhao Zhou.

"No, it's clear that the factory knows that it's a loss and wants to do it. Why talk about those fallacies. "Zhao Zhou's one-handed wind entangled, an ordinary force split Huashan, and the sound of 'bang' exploded, driving the nearby airflow and dispersing the attacking Zhang Xu fist print!

At the same time, Zhao Zhou stepped forward, and the distance of ten zhang was smooth, and the shape of the tiger split, accompanied by the whistling airflow, hit the head of the factory man!

'What a quick move! The factory saw and heard badly, and subconsciously put his hands together, and the flesh and bones were banged, accompanied by the bluestone ground under his feet, and the gravel was splashed.

His legs sank to a depth of more than half a meter on the ground, reaching up to his thighs, and a foot of bluestone around him was full of powder.

"Gonggong, you should go back to the palace to rest for a few days, and think about the law."

Zhao Zhounian did not kill himself in this person, and then did not pick up the killing move, but said a word, took a few steps, and took forty or fifty zhang away.

'Bang! In the next moment, the factory man was furious, the internal force in his body was entangled, and he shattered the bluestone within a zhang around him, and flew out of the dirt pit, wanting to speak again, or fight again.

It's just that when he just looked back at Zhao Zhou, he found that Zhao Zhou was already one mile away, and disappeared at the end of the official road three miles away in an instant.

"Broken, broken, broken! This Zhao Demon has achieved his miraculous work! I have to quickly inform the owner of the village to arrest them, I can't stop this demon alone! When the factory saw that he had let Zhao Zhou go, one hand trembled, and a trace of blood overflowed from his arm, staining his robe.

However, he didn't care about the injury of his hard frame Zhao Zhou's hand, but wanted to notify the owner and others to think of a way to deal with it quickly.

Otherwise, these six major factions encircled and suppressed Guangmingding, not to mention who wins and who loses, I am afraid that they will all be taken by Zhao Zhou to cover the field, and after talking about the providence of the 'Iron Sword Gate'.
