34 joined the Iron Master
"It tastes really good." Zhang Yuan couldn't help nodding his head as he ate these delicacies. This is also in the biography of Jin Yong's heroes, otherwise, in the twenty-first century of the earth where Zhang Yuan came, this bear paw and some rare fish are not allowed to be eaten.
Wei Qingshi nodded and said, "Mmmm! The meat and seafood are good, both delicious. This wine is strong enough, too! "Although the food at this Yuelai Inn is expensive, the ingredients and taste are really extraordinary.
"Zhang Yuan, you see that entering this restaurant is either rich or expensive. All of them are silk and satin! Wei Qingshi said with a smile. Well. Zhang Yuan even gnawed on a big crab and nodded with a smile.
Just as the two of them were eating happily, a loud voice suddenly came from outside and said, "What? Full? ”
The dissatisfied voice sounded again: "I am here to entertain my eldest brother today, and I have come to your Yuelai Inn." There is no deluxe room on the third floor. The normal location on the second floor and the first floor is gone? ”
"Guest, it's really full." The little second was not annoyed at all, and said with a smile.
The young man in a satin white robe was at the door of the first floor, looking inside casually, and his eyes stayed on Zhang Yuan and the others.
The two boys were both wearing cloth clothes, and one of them was dancing with his eyebrows, obviously not seeing any big scenes. The white-robed boy thought about it, so he said to Xiao'er: "Let those two give up their seats, I will cover their meal money!" As he spoke, he pointed to Zhang Yuan and Wei Qingshi.
Zhang Yuan and Wei Qingshi didn't care about talking at the door, the two of them ate and drank happily, and they could still look at the scenery outside through the window. Talk and laugh about the prosperity here.
"Two guest officers." Xiao Er suddenly ran to Zhang Yuan and the others. "Huh?" Zhang Yuanyi looked up.
The guest officer wanted the two of them to have a table for them. The guest officer took care of the dishes you ordered. Xiao Er said: "I don't know if the two guest officers can agree?" ”
Wei Qingshi looked at the bear's paw in his mouth, and looked up at Xiao Er. He sneered and glanced at the local boy outside and said, "He has it?" He told us to go, and gave us five hundred taels of silver, and my two brothers left immediately. If he wants to be stingy, let him get out! ”
Zhang Yuan took a sip of the wine glass and watched the development of things with a smile. He could see that the four people at the door of the restaurant were not his opponents.
The man in white was side by side with a strong man in a blue suit with a tiger's back and a bear's waist. Behind them were two sword-wielding guards.
Hearing Wei Qingshi's words, the face of the man in white was ugly. "It's better for the two of you to give up your seat!" The man in white said in a deep voice: "Otherwise, you won't be able to eat and walk around!" ”
Zhang Yuan and Wei Qingshi didn't pay attention to it at all. The little second company lowered his voice and persuaded him: "Two guest officers, that son is the eldest son of the Wen family in Hangzhou City, and he is also a disciple of the Iron Palm Gang. His family is a martial arts family, and he is also the number one person in Hangzhou City. His house is fine, but the one next to him. That is Lord Zhang, the captain of the city guard army of Tiezhang Mountain City in this area of Hangzhou, south of the Yangtze River. One sentence can put two guest officers in prison. ”
Captain of the City Guard! Wei Qingshi and Zhang Yuan glanced at each other and smiled. Zhang Yuan calmly sat in his position and smiled: "Haha! The son of the Wen family? Bullshit! Wrap a table of dishes and let us go! There are so many guests in this Yuelai Inn. Who will give up their seat? Nobody wills! What is the eldest son of the Wen family in Hangzhou. I can't even take five hundred taels of silver, and I still pretend to be a rich boy here? Hahaha! I'm laughing to death! ”
There is no need to worry about the Wen family, what else is he afraid of? Unless it's a rare prefecture-level master. Among the human-level masters, even if they are the pinnacle of high-level internal strength, no one can make Zhang Yuan afraid.
"Hahahaha!" The whole restaurant burst into laughter. Those who eat here are not rich or expensive, and they are also happy to watch the excitement.
The white-clothed man and the strong man's faces were hard to look at. "It seems. You're not giving me someone Wen's face! The white-clothed man's face sank. "Take them down!" ”
The two guards behind him immediately stepped forward to make a move. "A couple of guest officers." The little second was also anxious.
"it. What a noise! It's amazing to be rich! There was a loud roar, as if thunder sounded in the Yuelai Inn.
Only the sound of chaotic footsteps was heard, and a large group of people came down from the upper floor. Zhang Yuan and Wei Qingshi also turned their heads to look at the staircase.
This group of people are all dressed in black, and the big man led by them is tall and burly, two meters and two-three, just like a black iron tower. The face is scumbag, and the eyes are like copper bells. In addition to this, there were two golden palms on the sleeves of the black robe he was wearing.
The dozen or so people came down the stairs, and the atmosphere on the entire first floor seemed to freeze.
"Lao Tzu, I hate bullying the most, in Tiezhang Mountain City, my iron boss is the rule, anyone who doesn't break the rules and bully people casually, you all give me the fuck!" The humanoid black bear-like bearded man snorted. The two guards looked back at the white-clothed man, as if to ask for their young master's opinion.
When the scumbag man saw that the other party didn't immediately carry out his words, his face immediately sank, and his body moved like lightning.
The big man's figure was like thunder, and he instantly arrived in front of the two guards. I saw him flick his arms. "Peng!" With a bang, the right arm directly smashed the two sturdy guards and threw them out, slamming them down on the street in the distance, and knocking down several pedestrians.
"Lao Tzu's words are useless!" The scumbag man glared and said to the man in white and the captain.
"Master." Zhang Yuan's eyes lit up, this scumbag man's kung fu is very good.
"Brother Gao!" The captain of the city guard who has been silent. also hurriedly said. "I didn't expect you to be here, I'm really sorry to disturb my brother's drinking. Let's go and have a few drinks. Even if I represent Gongzi Wen, I apologize to you, senior brother. And the man in white next to him was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything.
"Oh! I thought that kid was riding on someone's power, but it turned out to be you. I don't have time to drink with you, so you still flash to the side! The scumbag man scolded.
Immediately, the scumbag man turned his head to look at Zhang Yuan and the others. Haha laughed: "I admire people with backbone the most!" You two are good! You don't have to give these two guys face, if he dares to bully you, just ask someone to send a message to my Iron Commander Army and find me boss. I'll help you settle it! ”
said. The scumbag man also picked up a piece of lobster on Zhang Yuan's table and threw it into his mouth.
"Tsk! Tastes good. I'll help you, it's okay to eat a piece of lobster. The scumbag laughed.
"My brothers also despise bullying the most, here are things, brother, you can eat them." Zhang Yuan said with a smile.
The scumbag man touched his nose with a smile, looked at Zhang Yuan and said, "You kid is interesting." Well. Remember. My name is High-Speed Rail Cow! Look for me in the Iron Palm Army, and you'll find me! Then he yelled, "All right, brothers! Let's go. Then the large group of men walked out of the restaurant.
"Let's go!" The face of the captain of the city guard was a little ugly, and he walked away with the white-clothed man.
Wei Qingshi's eyes lit up, and he watched with envy as the fierce man named Gao Tie Niu led a group of people into the distance. He looked back at Zhang Yuan and said, "Zhang Yuan, that high-speed rail cow is really majestic enough, even the captain of the city guard dares to scold, and the captain doesn't even dare to fart." It's a pleasure for a man to be like this! ”
"That's the Iron Palm Army after all!" Zhang Yuan said with a smile. In this world, the City Guard is the inferior third-rate who manages the civilians. The gang's descendant is the Iron Palm Army, and that is the basis for the Iron Leader Sect and other sects to fight for the throne.
After Zhang Yuan and Wei Qingshi had dinner, they settled out and stayed in the inn for a night. Because he was going to enter the Iron Palm Gang tomorrow, Wei Qingshi was very excited, and he talked to Zhang Yuan until he fell asleep late at night.
Early the next morning, the two of them were ready to get up. As soon as they went downstairs, the two of them saw that the other masters in the inn had also left the inn one by one.
The Iron Palm Gang, located on the Iron Palm Mountain in the northwest of the Hangzhou region in the south of the Yangtze River, can be said to be a city within a city.
"If you want to join the elite army of the Iron Palm Gang, go this way. Go for the entrance examination! The Iron Palm Gang had a large number of disciples in charge of the reception, shouting loudly.
"Admission assessment?" Zhang Yuan and Wei Qingshi also followed the flow of people and walked towards the inside of the Iron Palm Gang.
"I don't know what the entrance assessment is." Wei Qingshi muttered. "Just look at the front." Zhang Yuan said with a smile.
After walking along the bluestone paved mountain road for a while, you will come to an open field halfway up the mountain. Hundreds of people had gathered in this empty field, all of whom had come to participate in the assessment of the Iron Palm Army. In addition to many young and middle-aged men, there are also very few women. Children of the rivers and lakes, there are men and women, in the world of Jin Yong's heroes, there are many female heroes who do not let the eyebrows go.
"If you want to join the Iron Palm Army, you should register here in order. Let's take the test one by one! A deep voice rang out.
Zhang Yuan and the others immediately leaned towards the place where the central registration and assessment was made. I saw four cyan boulders of different sizes placed in the central open space, with large black characters written on them.
The big characters were three hundred kilograms, one ton, three tons, and ten tons.
"If you can lift three hundred kilograms, you can be my iron palm to help the outer disciples! Those who can lift a ton are eligible to become candidates for recruits in the Iron Palm Army! Recruit candidates will also have to go through another battle within the Iron Palm Army. In the end, it was the elite fighters of the Iron Palm Army who remained! Those who can lift three tons are eligible to compete for the position of 'Captain' of the Iron Palm Army! Those who can lift a 10-ton boulder are the pinnacle masters of the human level, and they are qualified to compete for the position of 'captain' of the Iron Palm Army! ”
As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar in the venue.
"I didn't expect the requirements of the elite soldiers of the Iron Palm Army to be raised again. Those who can lift a ton are candidates, and they have to go through internal screening. A lot of people talked about it.
Hearing the other party's words, Wei Qingshi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Because Wei Qingshi has been able to lift a three-ton boulder since he practiced the internal skills in the village.
"I didn't expect this to be the entrance assessment, so simple." Zhang Yuan smiled lightly.
A large group of people formed a circle, and an individual entered it to begin the assessment. Zhang Yuan was also lining up behind, and at the same time watching other people's assessments.
"Hey!" A sturdy man snorted angrily and lifted the 300-kilogram boulder.
"Anything else?" The Iron Palm Gang disciple sitting on the side asked indifferently. The man shook his head and said, "I can't lift a ton." ”
"Hmm. It's your brand! Let's wait for the side. Another Iron Palm disciple threw a sign to the man.
"Get out of the way, I'll come!" With a loud shout, a tall young man in a sheepskin jacket and shirtless strode into the central clearing, and walked straight to the place where the three-ton boulder was. I saw that his arms were stretched out, as if his arms were cast in steel to hold this cyan boulder, and his hands were firmly supporting the bottom, and the white brush word 'three tons' on the cyan boulder was very conspicuous. "Ho~" With a low shout, the fierce young man's whole body was slightly shocked, and the cyan boulder was lifted directly with a bang.
"What a man." Immediately, there was a cheer all around, and the shirtless young man in a sheepskin jacket laughed and threw the cyan boulder to the side.
"Do you still lift a ten-ton one?" The Iron Palm Gang disciple who was in charge of recording and writing asked with a smile. "Nope." The young man shook his head.
The entrance examination was carried out in an orderly manner, and as time went by, more and more people watched around. "Haha, I'll come!" With a loud shout, Wei Qingshi stepped into the central clearing.
I saw Wei Qingshi directly holding a three-ton boulder with both hands. "Up!" A loud shout.
The three-ton boulder was immediately lifted high by him, and Wei Qingshi's sturdy arms were released, "Peng!" With a bang, three tons of boulders fell heavily to the ground.
"Haha・・・・・・ don't ask, I can't lift the ten-ton boulder." Wei Qingshi said with a hearty smile. The Iron Palm Gang disciple also smiled and asked his name and age.
After taking the three-ton brand, Wei Qingshi walked back to Zhang Yuan's side and said: "Zhang Yuan, look at this brand, there is nothing special, just a few black brush words on the bamboo brand." Zhang Yuangang looked at the brand made of bamboo, and suddenly a loud voice sounded: "Get out of the way!" ”
Zhang Yuan turned his head to look and saw a man with a braided hair and a huge knife on his back squeezing the two masters in front of him, and then walked into the central clearing first.
"Who squeezes ・・・・・・" One of the two men who was squeezed away was immediately furious, and he was about to curse in his mouth, but when he saw the giant war knife that the other party was carrying, he immediately shut up and didn't dare to say another word.
The war knife behind the braided man was more than a zhang long, one head beyond his height, it was like a big guillotine, the back of the knife was wide and thick, and ordinary people could not move such a huge blade!
The pigtailed man walked straight to the central clearing and walked towards his target, which was the ten-ton boulder!
Until now, no one has been able to fully lift a ten-ton boulder.
"He's going to lift a ten-ton?" "It seems that this person is also a ruthless character." A group of people around whispered, but all eyes were fixed on the pigtailed man.
The man with braids didn't untie the knife, and directly supported the ten-ton boulder with both hands. I only heard a violent snort, and the pigtailed man directly lifted the ten-ton cyan boulder directly. Then the braided man's arms protruded, and then he threw it to the ground, and the ten-ton boulder fell to the ground with a bang, sinking deep into the ground halfway.
The gray-robed middle-aged man sitting behind the other young disciples of the Iron Palm Gang couldn't help but stand up and laughed, "Okay, it's a first-class master in the rivers and lakes!" The first first-class master in today's entrance assessment appeared! This brother, your name, age! ”
"Tian Boguang! Thirty-six! The pigtailed man said indifferently. Tian Boguang? That flower thief Tian Boguang? The surrounding masters were suddenly shocked.
"Wasn't Tian Boguang killed by the people of the Wuyue Sword Sect? Why did he come too? The appearance of such a famous master immediately aroused everyone's interest.
"Tian Boguang, a first-class swordsman, how did he come to the area of Hangzhou, south of the Yangtze River, and join the Iron Palm Army?" Some of the masters whispered.
Wei Qingshi also looked at the pigtailed man with the same name as the owner of Beibao Village, and listened to the discussion of the people around him. Then he lowered his voice and said excitedly to Zhang Yuan: "Zhang Yuan, this Tian Boguang has the same name and surname as the owner of Beibao Village, I heard everyone say that the master who dares to work with the Wuyue Sword Sect is a powerful person!" This iron-clad army captain is fighting, Zhang Yuan, you can be careful of him. ”
Zhang Yuan smiled, his strength has never really been exposed, even Wei Qingshi is not very clear. This Tian Boguang is also a human-level master, and he is not afraid of him at all.
"Captain!" Zhang Yuan just smiled and watched the others conduct the entrance assessment, in his heart, this so-called captain's position, Zhang Yuan had already booked.
Nearly two hours had passed in the blink of an eye, and most of them had already lifted the boulder. At this time, Zhang Yuan smiled and stepped into the central clearing.
"The young man walked towards the ten-ton boulder!" "He wouldn't want to lift a ten-ton boulder too!"
Seeing the direction Zhang Yuan was walking, a group of people around him were talking about it one after another, staring at Zhang Yuan. Even masters such as Natian Boguang also looked at it.
Zhang Yuan firmly grasped the ten-ton boulder with both hands. "Up!" Then there was a low shout. Ten tons of boulders were held high above their heads, without the slightest difficulty. Then Zhang Yuan threw the ten tons of boulders.
"Haha, it's another first-class master at the pinnacle of the human level! The second first-class master appeared. The gray-robed middle-aged man laughed loudly: "Dare to ask what is the name of this brother?" "There was also a commotion among the masters around him, all talking about where this young man was sacred." My name is Zhang Yuan! ”
On the Iron Palm Mountain, the sky was dark at this moment, it was already evening, and the whole day of the Iron Palm Army's entrance assessment had ended.
"One hundred and fifty-two people in all! Several human-level peaks, more than a dozen second-rate masters. This time, so many masters have defected to the Iron Palm Gang, what a gathering of talents! Zhang Yuan sighed embarrassedly. There are so many masters in the recruitment once a year. The elite gang of the Iron Palm Army still maintains the number of 3,000 people all year round, so it is no wonder that it is so strong. ”
The group walked to the outskirts of a camp on the top of the hill and finally stopped. On the night when they first arrived at the Iron Palm Army barracks, Zhang Yuan and the others did not come into contact with the Iron Palm Army at all. Because they can't be considered real Iron Commander Sergeants yet. The first night they spent the night on the outskirts of the Iron Palm barracks.
The next morning, hundreds of people were scattered around the open-air stone tables, drinking millet porridge and eating large meat buns. You can eat as much of these foods as you want, and the iron boss will eat them when they are full.
"Brother Qingshi, today is going to be a battle between the Iron Palm Army Captain and the Wu Commander, you be careful." Zhang Yuan reminded.
"Don't worry, Zhang Yuan." Wei Qingshi said confidently.
"Boom!" "Boom・・・・・・!" At this time, there was a sudden trembling earthquake, and the rumbling sound gradually came.
