"What can I do?"

In just four words, the helplessness in the heart of the head of the Liang family was exhausted.

The two brothers, Nian and Mi, patted their eldest brother on the shoulder distressedly.

Practicing this kind of thing is always so unreasonable.

They have all really witnessed the super King's Landing twenty years ago, and when they saw the palm print of the valley, there are many things that do not need to be explained.

In short, from now on, the three major grain merchants in Yongning are the most loyal partners of Qiankun Commercial Bank, and they have no two hearts!

Although a decision had been made in his heart, thinking about Zhou Shang's excessively young age, when the three of them walked down the mountain, they still couldn't help but hang their heads.

……

Qiankun gathers and leads the camp tent

"How did you do that?"

Lou Hong asked curiously: "Now Yongning is spreading that the three families are scared more obediently than their grandsons." ”

"I was blocked during my practice, and I was afraid of delays, so I asked the head of the Liang family to go back and call some more people."

"That's all?"

Lou Honghu was suspicious and didn't believe it.

"I also injured four medium-grade people."

Zhou Shang's tone was understated, as if he was not talking about fighting, but about slaughtering four chickens.

"Hey, sure enough, businessmen are spineless."

Lou Hong first sneered, then thought about it, shook his head and sighed: "But it's no wonder they, twenty years ago, the Daoyuan Sect made a move and almost killed all the top-grade martial artists in Yongning City, and now twenty years have passed, although there are some new top-grade martial artists." But the spine was knocked out. If you want to stand up straight, I'm afraid it's a little difficult. ”

Listening to Lou Hong's sigh, Zhou Shang suddenly realized: "It turns out that because of this, I said that there are so few top-grade martial artists in Yongning City!" ”

"Listening to what you mean, do you think it's easy to be of the highest grade?"

Lou Hong reminded angrily: "Although your talent is indeed extraordinary, but you have only been cultivating for a long time, it is a little too early to say such things now!" ”

"But the standard of the Yongning cultivation world is indeed very low..."

It was rare for Zhou Shang to say in an uncertain tone: "I seem... It's all reached! ”

"Huh!?"

Lou Hong's face froze instantly, and he came to Zhou Shang in a flash, grabbed an arm and said in a deep voice: "You stir up your qi and blood to try." ”

"Knock knock, knock knock!"

The heart is like a drum, the qi and blood are like a flood, and Zhou Shang's physical functions are crazy to improve with the acceleration of the flow rate of qi and blood.

It stands to reason that the blood and qi of the human body are surging, and there will be an irrepressible rise in body temperature, sweat, and even blood steaming.

But at this time, the surface temperature of Zhou Shang's body has not changed at all.

Obviously, the qi and blood in the body have been surging, but the skin of the arm is still warm and cool, and there is no sweat steaming, and the skin of the arm can't even see the pores.

"The cold and heat do not invade, and there is no leakage of the body, but the mistake is right... But how is that possible? ”

After Lou Hong muttered to himself in a daze, he put down Zhou Shang's arm: "Even if it is a self-created exercise, it is not so fast and outrageous, right, how long has it been, and this has been practiced to the heart, lungs, and spleen?" ”

"That's why I think the middle grade standard of the Yongning cultivation world is very low!"

Stopping the rush of qi and blood, Zhou Shang frowned and puzzled: "According to Yongning's standards, I can already start preparing for the marrow washing, but I obviously feel that there is still a lot of room for improvement in the internal organs, muscles, skin, bones, flesh and veins, so I want to come and ask Commander Lou, is it normal for me to be in this situation?" ”

"Alas, it's not normal, how to say it, feel it yourself."

Lou Hong shook his head, wryly smiled and flicked his fingers, and with the slow bending of the abortion, the sound of the bowstring tightening sounded.

Zhou Shang raised his palm and stopped in front of the finger with a flick of his strength.

When the bowstring was tightened to the extreme, there was a crisp sound of "pop", and Lou Hong flicked his fingers in the palm of Zhou Shang's palm, and the force swept so that the skin and flesh in his palm rippled.

"[Tendons are like strings], this is a sign that Yongning cultivators think that Yi tendon is a great achievement, but it can't be wrong, after all, the standards for thousands of years have been like this."

Lou Hong explained, and at the same time hooked his middle finger back to tighten, "But if you look at cultivation as a path." Then the end of this road is still the road, it just depends on whether you are willing to continue walking. ”

Fingers bent again, but this time the sound was no longer like a bowstring, but like the roar of a tiger and leopard before a hunt, and the murmur of a summer cloud.

"Be careful!"

Before snapping his fingers this time, Lou Hong reminded him like this.

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Shang felt a huge force hit his palm, as if he was about to drill a hole in his palm.

Then Yuan Qi detonated, boomed, and the wind suddenly rose.

In order to better feel the difference between the strength of the front and back, Zhou Shang did not increase the strength of the confrontation, and still maintained the state of just bearing the snap of his fingers, and this time, the skin and flesh of his palm not only rippled and shocked, but he was also flicked by the [Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound], and stood still after being repelled a few steps.

After carefully tasting all the strength of Lou Hong's fingers with his body, Zhou Shang thoughtfully put down his palm.

"Huh?"

After flicking his fingers, Lou Hong put his hands behind his back and held his head proudly, on the one hand, he wanted to show the posture of his martial arts predecessors, and on the other hand, he also wanted to remind Zhou Shang next day.

Don't be fluttering with some achievements, the cultivation standards of the Yongning martial arts world are not the same as playing at home.

If you want to talk about cultivation, you have to look at the profound sect martial artists like them.

Lou Hong was ready to receive Zhou Shang's admiration and exclamation, but he didn't expect that the other party didn't mean to be moved at all.

This made him a little incomprehensible: "How can you look at your expression, not surprised at all?" ”

"To this extent? There's no need! ”

Zhou Shang shook his hand, raised his palm again, and this time even tied up his horse steps, his eyes were blazing: "I feel that there is still something behind!" ”

“......”

Lou Hong looked at Zhou Shang who was in a posture dumbfounded, and shook his head with a wry smile, "It's true, but it can't be demonstrated!" ”

Zhou Shang thought that Lou Hong was worried that he couldn't stand it, and his face was full of encouragement: "Don't worry, Commander Lou, I'm very resistant to beating!" ”

"You can't bear it!"

Lou Hong replied angrily: "Because I can't control it, I have to do my best." ”

"That's right, that's okay."

Zhou Shang put down his hand with a little regret, and asked without giving up: "Can you describe it?" ”

"The road must be walked step by step, the meal must be eaten in one bite, young people should not be too ambitious, I advise you first...."

The tiger and leopard interrupted in a low voice, Zhou Shang arched his right arm, showed his biceps, and his lips were closed, but it was worth a thousand words.

Lou Hong was really stunned, "How is it possible, where did you get such a majestic and pure True Qi to refine your muscles and bones to this extent?" ”

"Brother Gua once relayed to me the words of a senior, saying that after practicing for a long time, he will encounter anything incomprehensible, so there is no need for Commander Lou to be too surprised."

Zhou Shang stopped the tendon relaxation and put down his bent arm, and the harmony was relieved.

“...... Is this a question of wonder or not? ”

Lou Hong held his forehead, his face full of speechlessness: "Anyone who sees that you can complete the Xiaocheng of the Three Realms of the Middle Grade so quickly will feel strange!" ”

"Quick? Maybe I've found the right way! ”

Zhou Shang explained solemnly: "Through the test of the specific circulation of the internal organs, I found that the human body is born with the perfection of the five elements, the lungs belong to gold, the liver belongs to wood, the kidneys belong to water, the heart belongs to fire, and the spleen belongs to earth. The initiates of the three realms of the middle grade are faster than the local reinforcement item by item! ”

Listening to Zhou Shang unreservedly share the essence of the exercises he had studied, the bitterness on Lou Hong's face became even stronger.

"Commander Lou, did I practice wrong?"

Zhou Shang originally wanted to share some of the feelings of the three realms of the middle grade, but when he saw Lou Hong's bitter face, he stopped talking and asked humbly.

"That's right, the self-created super-grade exercises are definitely the most suitable exercises for you."

Lou Hong explained: "There is no problem with the theory, the Five Elements Shengke is the most classic theory in the cultivation world, and it is also the theory with the most extensive application. I don't know how many super-grade exercises have been created based on this theory. It's not because you're at fault with this expression, it's that I didn't expect you to be able to come this far in such a short period of time. ”

"Second..."

Lou Hong sighed with a complicated expression: "I'm not sure if this is a good thing." ”

"Isn't it good to practice fast?"

Zhou Shang didn't quite understand.

"What is the hardest part of practicing?"

Lou Hong sighed: "Is it the endless vastness of the road? Or the courage to face life and death? Or is it the wisdom of finding your way where there is no path? ”

"Neither. The most difficult part of cultivation is the boring and repetitive practice every day when you can't make any further progress! ”

"The so-called cultivation is not only to give full play to the talent, but also to go one step further where it is impossible to improve!"

"Since ancient times, although it is rare to see people in the cultivation world who are as talented as demons, there are also a lot of them, but there are very few who have really made great achievements. So it's not necessarily a good thing that the talent is too good. ”

Speaking of this, Lou Hong said to Zhou Shang in a complicated tone: "The Three Realms of Zhongpin were called the storage period in ancient times, can you understand what it means?" ”

"You can understand the general meaning by listening to the name."

Zhou Shang touched his chin and looked Lou Hong up and down: "So the sect is like this for its disciples?" To what extent is it generally hidden? ”

Lou Hong stretched out five fingers and said: "The original standard is that the cold and heat do not invade, the body does not leak, the qi and blood are like rainbows, the tendons are like strings, and the dragon is like a huge force." ”

"And now?"

Zhou Shang asked.

"Personal affinity is different. Where to go, it all depends on personal will and talent. ”

Lou Hong first gave an ambiguous answer: "Soaring forward has the advantages of making great progress, and thick accumulation has the advantages of thick accumulation." Then he casually asked, "Which one are you going to pick?" ”

"Me? Don't do neither, let it be. ”

Zhou Shang replied with a smile: "It doesn't matter how fast or slow, just take every step correctly and steadily." ”

……

Yongning City, Chengxin Xiaoxie

Luo Sanshao's mansion was built in the center of Chengxin Lake.

Since then, Chengxin Lake, which was originally the residence of the city's residents, has become the private property of the Luo family, and the entire lake is wrapped in snow-white walls.

It is said to be a small pavilion, in fact, it is not small at all, the four sides of the road, the inside and outside of the four square buildings, the end is very exquisite.

It's a pity that when Luo Sanshao was building the mansion, he only took into account the coolness of spring and autumn and the style of winter, and ignored the summer.

At this time of the summer solstice, what surrounds the sky above the Chengxin Pavilion is not the sound of a silk bamboo piano, but the buzz of countless flies and insects.

Kill inexhaustibly, extinguish endlessly, for this reason, Luo Sanshao has lost his temper several times!

"Let you exterminate insects, after so long, they still haven't been destroyed! I can't even do this little thing, what a bunch of rubbish! ”

On this day, after Luo Sanshao lost his temper again, he announced that he would go back to Luofu to live for a while.

"Next time you come back, if there are still flies and insects flying, I will throw you into the lake to catch insects!"

After Luo Sanshao, who was huffing, gave the final order to the head of the house and the subordinates.

Sitting on a bamboo sedan chair carried by several women, he left Chengxin Xiaoxie and returned to Luofu.

In the main hall, there were already a few representatives of the business alliance waiting to be seen.

"Lian Yiren and Liang Chaotang colluded with outsiders and wanted to dig up the foundation of my Yongning Business Alliance, what good strategies do you have to deal with it?"

Da Ma Jindao sat in the position belonging to Luo Tianxiong, and Luo Sanshao went straight to the few people with a single knife and asked.

Several deputies didn't expect Luo Sanshao to be so direct, and after looking at each other for a while, they began to offer suggestions.

"Lian Yiren dares to rebel against the business alliance, then the Lian family's shop in the Fang Market should be taken back!"

"There are also shops of the Liang family, the Nian family, and the Mi family! If it weren't for the resources of the business alliance over the years, how could they be so big! Now to be bigger, not thinking about returning, but backwater, really deserve to be killed! ”

"Not only do you have to take it back, but you have to punish them and expel them from the business alliance! Sanshao rest assured, we have planned several of them, and we will stabilize the market in the first time and never let the city make waves again! ”

At the end of the dedication, several representatives of the forces began to show their loyalty to Luo Sanshao, and said that if they could give reciprocal care, they would be able to replace him in less than three years.

Some people said that without the income of Fang City, these families would not even be able to maintain the scene, and they would come back to pray for the Luo family in the end.

The third young master was overjoyed when he heard this, and after finalizing the specific operation method, several representatives of the business alliance forces retreated contentedly.

The third young master sat in the main hall of Luofu, waiting for the guests to come to the door, while imagining the scene where the four families of Lian, Liang, Nian, and Mi came back to beg for him.

was beautiful, and saw the shopkeeper of the Luo family's account room, holding the account book, walking past the door with a bitter face.

"Fourth Uncle stays!"

Luo Sanshao stopped the clan uncle, and after summoning the people into the main hall, he asked puzzledly: "Why do you have a bitter face, but what troubles have you encountered?" ”

"Returning to the third young master. ”

The bookkeeper, known as the fourth uncle, came to the main hall to greet the third young master Luo, and then explained: "In the past half a year, our Luo family's business in Xichengfang City has been getting worse and worse. In addition, a number of retail investors who were originally in Fang City have also surrendered their rents, and if it goes on like this, Chengxi Fang City is afraid that it will lose money. ”

"Will the market still lose money?"

Luo Sanshao seemed to have heard something fantastical: "How can this be?" ”

"It's not because of what Zheng Qian did."

The bookkeeper sighed and said: "Since the Vientiane hypermarket has been in the city, no matter what is eaten, the people of Xicheng love to buy it there, not to mention them, even our own guys go to shop from time to time." There is a fixed amount of food in this city, and the more the Vientiane hypermarket, the less the Fang market. Isn't that what it looks like? ”

"It turned out to be because of that indiscriminate store!"

Luo Sanshao waved his hand with a big grin: "Fourth uncle, don't worry, I have ideas, and I have a lot of ideas, I promise to let him go bankrupt in less than three months!" ”
