Qi Shi stood in front of Zong Xian and patted him on the shoulder.

Yan Qihao, who was standing next to him, took the initiative to avoid suspicion and consciously walked to the other side of the training ground.

"Ah Xian, the four-eyed brute bull is a third-order low-grade brute beast, known for its strength and strong defense!"

"Brute beasts are roughly divided into four levels according to their corresponding strength: A, B, C, and D, and each of them is divided into upper, middle, and lower grades."

"It is said that there are demon beasts above the brute beasts, but they only exist in the classics, and no one has seen them with their own eyes for at least two or three hundred years."

……

Speaking of this, Qi Shi paused for a moment, took out a delicate snuff box with blue porcelain plum blossom glaze from his arms, and after sniffing it lightly, the expression on his face suddenly relaxed a lot.

At this moment, Qi Zhishang didn't seem to be giving a commission, but like chatting with his disciples.

Zong Xian patiently waited for the following, this calmness was also one of the reasons why Qi Shi admired him, compared to Yuan Wen's completely childlike nature.

He put away his snuffbox and continued his introduction.

"The higher the level of the brute beast, the more difficult it is to deal with, not only because the beast body is strong, but because the high-level brute beasts often have not weak intelligence."

"In addition, the brute beast also has a thousand strange natural abilities."

"Of course, brute beast meat is also the best food used by martial artists to nourish qi and blood."

"Ah Xian, do you know why?"

Qi Shi suddenly threw out a question.

In fact, Zong Xian has also thought about this matter, he has the memory and knowledge of his previous life, so his knowledge is far beyond that of his peers.

After pondering for a moment, Zong Xian said the answer he had guessed in his heart.

"The disciple thinks it's because the brute beast's body is also rich in qi and blood."

"You must know that the source of strength of martial artists in the Forging Body Realm and Qi and Blood Realm is Qi and Blood."

"Qi and blood are not only a kind of energy contained in the body, but also the key to the continuous improvement of the body of a warrior."

"Including the strength of the master, it is also born from qi and blood."

"Then it is not difficult to guess from this that the reason why brute beasts can be stronger than ordinary beasts is also because of qi and blood."

"To use an inappropriate, but appropriate analogy, the brute beast is the 'warrior' among the beasts, and the natural ability you said is the 'martial art' among the beasts, so it all corresponds."

Zong Xian replied in a calm tone, but he didn't have too many concerns.

saw Qi Shi show a surprised expression.

"Indeed!"

"It is precisely because the brute beast meat is rich in qi and blood that it has a higher nourishing value than other foods."

"Although this truth is superficial, the analogy you just made is very ingenious!"

He couldn't help but praise it, Zong Xian's consciousness and cognition were even higher than he imagined.

"Okay, no more gossip."

"The vitality of the four-eyed bull is extremely tenacious!"

"The natural ability is brute force collision, and there will be a charging action before each collision and it is not easy to change direction, so it is not difficult to dodge as long as you pay more attention."

"There are three Achilles' heels of this fang, namely the meridians under the left and right sides of the neck, and the sac on the back.

"Ah Xian, with your current realm and strength, there will be a certain risk in facing the four-eyed brute bull, but as long as you deal with it carefully, it is definitely not a problem to kill it."

"It's a good opportunity to hone your real-world responses."

"Xu Yuanwai will also prepare some traps and net tools."

After listening to Master Qi's words, Zong Xian frowned slightly.

He didn't like this kind of grinding like catching ducks on the shelves.

Just like before, he had a fist fight under the instruction of Master Qi, so he provoked Mohe, and finally led to the revenge of the Sanshui Gang.

If that incident had been handled by himself, there would have been no Creek Lane tragedy in the future.

Qi Shi seemed to be quite lenient with him on the surface, but in fact, he was trying his best to make him grow up quickly and was forced to accept the test of killing.

It can't be asserted that Master Qi's move is harming him, after all, those Heavenly Qi Masters have also been secretly escorting, but even so, Zong Xian still can't accept it.

In fact, his heart has always longed for a peaceful life, and he just wants to practice martial arts every day to strengthen his body, and harvest [mysterious chance] again every once in a while.

It's a pity that I can't always get my wish.

Seeing that Zong Xian was silent for a long time and didn't speak, Qi Shi also noticed something.

"Ugh..."

He sighed leisurely.

"Ah Xian, as a teacher, I can see that you are still worried about the matter of Xigou Lane."

"If the teacher really wants to harm you, why should he teach you?"

"Time is really running out..."

"You have to grow up as quickly as possible."

"There is no future for hard work behind closed doors."

"If you want to survive the coming catastrophe, you must be ruthless enough, your hands hot enough, and your eyes poisonous enough!"

"In more than three months, that is, when the disciples of the Bei'an Martial Arts Pavilion will form a big competition."

"At that time, the teacher will tell you everything!"

Qi Zhishang's tone was filled with sadness and gloom that could not be concealed.

When it came to this, Zong Xian could only nod his head.

"By the way, in addition to sharpening the actual combat this time, there is one more thing to pay attention to..."

"When the four-eyed bull loses its vitality, it will use a sharp weapon to rip out its heart and drink the blood in its heart, which will be of great benefit to forging the body!"

"The disciple has written it down..."

……

The next day, it was just dawn.

It was rare that Zong Xian did not get up early to practice, but slept for a while to recuperate.

When he got up, he drank a large bowl of millet porridge with minced meat of brute beasts.

He hung the "hunting" word jade handle knife around his waist, and only a few days ago he went to the tanner's shop to order a sturdy crusty sheath, and now the scabbard matches, and it is not conspicuous to hang on his waist.

Qi Shi was taking Yuan Wen to practice his strength in the courtyard, and after seeing him, he came over to encourage him a few words, and he could feel the subtle estrangement in Zong Xian's heart.

At the entrance of the martial arts hall, there was already a carriage sent by Xu Yuanwai waiting.

"Smack!"

After Zong Xian got into the carriage, a loud horsewhip sounded, and the two chestnut-haired old horses took a "tuk-tuk" step and left in the direction of the south city gate.

Non-staff officials are non-staff officials, and they are white positions obtained through donating silver.

Many landlords and wealthy merchants used this to improve their social status and become "elites" who assisted the yamen in administering the localities.

To put it bluntly, that Xu Yuanwai is a landlord near Bei'an City.

Fenglinzhuang is a Zhuangzi formed after hundreds of tenants attached to the Xu family, located more than 20 miles south of Bei'an City.

A large area of fertile land has been cultivated near Zhuangzi, mulberry leaves and fruit trees have been planted, cattle and sheep and some chickens, ducks and poultry have been raised, and a large amount of land tax has been paid to the county government every year.

This information was all told to Zong Xian by Master Qi last night.

And the reason why Xu Yuanwai chose to ask for help from the Yueshan Changquan Martial Arts Hall was because Qi Shi took the initiative to promise not to commission money, as long as Zong Xian brought back the body of the wild cow.

If Xu Yuanwai went out to ask for help from the gangs and yamen in the city, he would have to spend at least a hundred taels of silver, and he would have to take care of the food and drink of those people.

A few years ago, Fenglinzhuang was attacked by a litter of long-toothed wild boars, Xu Yuanwai asked the Black Wolf Gang for help, not only gave 150 taels of commission, but those gang members also ate two sheep, seven or eight chickens and ducks, drank more than a dozen jars of sorghum wine, and carried away more than 20 bags of wheat...

In contrast, the Yueshan Martial Arts Hall is simply eliminating harm for the people.
