Chapter 157: Retreat and Penance, Five Tiger Fist Breakthrough!
Looking at these data, Zhao Ya fell into deep thought.
In addition to the breakthrough of the Wind Sword Technique to return to the basics, the Five Tiger Fist and the Light as a Swallow were both on the verge of breaking through.
In addition, there are only 6% of the kidneys left to complete the unlock.
After the kidneys are unlocked, even if all the five organs are successfully unlocked, I don't know what will happen at that time.
Now the situation in the city is unpredictable, Master Lu Dingtai is unconscious, Wei Hongbin and Yuan Chenfeng and others are eyeing each other.
Zhao Ya understands that if you want to survive this crisis safely, only improving your own strength is fundamental.
He let out a slow breath, his mind already determined.
Early the next morning, Zhao Ya found his senior brother Shen Dao and senior sister Meng Shiwen and others, and told everyone what he thought.
"You want to use all the jerky stored in the martial arts hall to cultivate?" Shen Dao was very surprised when he heard this.
"Yes." Zhao Ya nodded,
"These dried meats are common to all the disciples of the Martial Arts, so I want to ask for your opinion, if you don't agree, I didn't say it."
Zhao Ya said very calmly.
Meng Shiwen, Shen Dao and the others glanced at each other, and then Shen Dao said with a smile.
"Senior brother, you are outside the world, we are brothers, how can we care about this little jerky, we just need to know."
Shen Dao's face was solemn, "Cultivation needs to be gradual and gradual, one step at a time to practice solidly, if you are greedy for merit and seek speed, or even try to take shortcuts, it will only backfire, wasting some jerky is still a trivial matter, if you hurt the foundation and ruin your martial arts future, then it will be troublesome." ”
Miao Shaocheng on the side also said: "Yes, junior brother, I know that you are worried about the current situation and want to become stronger quickly, but this kind of thing can be solved without being in a hurry." ”
Meng Shiwen didn't speak, just quietly looked at the young man in front of her who was as straight as a sword.
Zhao Ya smiled, "What the two senior brothers said is very true, and I understand these truths very well, but since I say so, I naturally have my reasons, and I will not joke about my martial arts future." ”
Hearing Zhao Ya say this, several people were relieved.
They all knew that Zhao Ya was steady, and he was definitely not the kind of person who would do impulsive things when his mind was hot, so they all nodded in agreement.
Not only that, Shen Dao and Xu De both said that they still had some leftover jerky on hand, and they also gave it to Zhao Ya.
In this way, all the stock jerky in the entire Dingtai Martial Arts Hall, including the additional funding of Shen Dao and others, all went to Zhao Ya.
The vast majority of them were the commonly used dried seven-star blood eels, as well as a small amount of higher-grade jerky and a few Vajra Powerful Pills.
Zhao Ya was not polite, and went back to the small courtyard where he lived with these things, and then told Zui'er that he wanted to practice behind closed doors, and unless there was something important in the martial arts hall or the master woke up, he should not disturb him about anything.
The drunken child naturally agreed.
Zhao Ya cleared out a spacious room, leaving only a futon for temporary rest, and then closed the door, first took out the eggs born by the mother worm, and did not eat them one by one, relying on his own invincible gastrointestinal talent, he took out a handful and put it in his mouth.
Since feeding the black bee eggs of the female worm, the quality of the eggs laid by the female worm has been greatly improved compared to before.
This handful of eggs went down, and the pure and surging qi and blood quickly filled the whole body.
Zhao Ya immediately began to practice.
When the qi and blood of these insect eggs were absorbed and consumed, Zhao Ya put all the remaining insect eggs into his mouth, and at the same time ate two dried seven-star blood eels.
From cultivation to now, this is the first time that Zhao Ya has cultivated in such an almost extravagant way.
The dried meat is like not wanting money, and it is swallowed endlessly.
And Zhao Ya's stomach seems to be a bottomless pit, the two talents of Mizutani Subtlety and Shengqing Subtlety work together, and the spleen and stomach are transformed into a meat grinder, squeezing out every trace of qi and blood contained in the dried meat and supplementing it as the body's nutrition.
Except for going to the toilet to excrete the impurities and waste residue of the jerky, Zhao Ya didn't go out at all, and the whole person seemed to be crazy, constantly practicing martial arts.
In the past, Zhao Ya had to accurately calculate the amount of qi and blood to practice, so as not to waste it.
But now all of that doesn't exist.
Zhao Ya only has one goal left, and that is to become stronger, and to become stronger as soon as possible.
In order to achieve this goal, a little waste is allowed, and everything has to make way for efficiency.
In this way, with the supply of massive qi and blood, Zhao Ya's strength in all aspects is also growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
During this period, Shen Dao, Miao Shaocheng, Xu De, Meng Shiwen and others all came to visit, but when they heard the sound of Zhao Ya's martial arts training from inside through the door, they didn't come in to disturb, but left quietly.
Zhao Ya didn't know about all this, at this time he was completely immersed in the ocean of martial arts, ignoring everything in the outside world.
Time passed day by day.
The situation in the city is also becoming more and more tense.
The friction between these cavalry who entered the city and the warriors of the county town intensified, although there was a sensible lieutenant like Sun Yingkui who tried his best to mediate, but after all, people like him were very few.
Therefore, the contradictions between the two sides are becoming more and more acute.
Not only that, but as they entered the city for a long time, after gaining a firm foothold, the ruffian nature of these cavalry was gradually revealed.
Extorting shops and extorting money is just a piece of cake, and even directly robbing men and women.
For a time, the people of the whole city complained bitterly.
But if you want to run, there is nowhere to run, after all, now that the beast tide has just receded, the trade route has not yet recovered, so you can only endure it with patience.
But ordinary people can endure it, but these businessmen and wealthy families in the city can't help it.
After all, compared to ordinary people who don't have much oil and water, in the eyes of these cavalrymen, these wealthy families are all fat sheep.
Going to the door to fight the autumn breeze in various names, it is needless to say that those who ask for money and things do not need to be said.
Some cavalrymen even lived directly in the homes of these wealthy families, and they directly asked for which female dependents they liked.
These wealthy families still dare not give it.
After all, just these Zhuang Ding guards under their hands are not enough to stuff these cavalry into their teeth.
For a while, these wealthy families can be regarded as unlucky.
A few of them are a bit bloody and try to resist.
As a result, after being defeated, not only was the family property confiscated, but the female relatives of the family were also taken away and confiscated, and the men were sent to prison on various charges, and they all died within two days, which can be regarded as a complete family ruin.
This tragedy frightened the remaining wealthy clans into not daring to resist, and unconditionally satisfied the demands of these cavalry masters, and completely became lambs to be slaughtered.
Zhu family.
Zhu Zihao, the head of the Zhu family, who used to have a big belly and was very rich, has long since lost his former majesty.
The big belly was also deflated, the oil on the face was gone, and even the bags under the eyes were drooping.
At this time, he sat down in his chair and listened to his butler report on the latest situation.
"Yesterday, the government sent someone again, saying that the midwinter is coming, and the soldiers have not yet purchased warm clothes, so let us take out 5,000 taels of gold to buy cotton clothes." The butler said cautiously.
Before Zhu Zihao could speak, a young man next to him couldn't sit still.
"Five thousand taels of gold! Is this cotton garment made of gold? ”
The voice was sharp and full of resentment.
"Be cautious, young master be cautious!" The butler was startled, looked left and right, and saw that no one was present, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and then persuaded hard.
"How does this make me cautious? Two days ago, he said that he wanted to rebuild the government office, and he had to go for 10,000 taels of gold, and today he had to buy cotton clothes, and he wanted 5,000 taels. ”
The young man was furious and shouted.
The butler was sweating profusely and his face turned white.
After all, the situation in the city is very tense now, and everyone is holding their tails between them.
If today's words of the young master of the Zhu family are spread, it is very likely to cause a catastrophe.
But he didn't dare to persuade him, so he could only look at Zhu Zihao with pleading eyes.
At this time, Zhu Zihao finally woke up from the confusion of the wandering object just now, and said softly: "Cheng Wan, don't say it." ”
"But Daddy ......." Zhu Chengwan was still unconvinced.
Zhu Zihao ignored him, but looked at the housekeeper, "Lao Cheng, you go to the treasury to pay five thousand taels of gold tickets, and now send them to the government office." ”
"Yes!" Only then did this Steward Cheng wipe the sweat from his forehead and left in a hurry.
As soon as he left, Zhu Chengwan said angrily: "Dad, when is this a head, if it goes on like this, it won't be long before our Zhu family will be ruined." ”
Zhu Zihao sighed faintly.
"What can I do? Don't give? Do you believe it or not, if you don't send the golden ticket over today, tomorrow our Zhu family will be trampled by iron horses, and then your mother, your newly married daughter-in-law, including your sister, will all have to become a camp prostitute, have you thought about this consequence? ”
Zhu Chengwan was speechless, because this result was not intimidated by Zhu Zihao, but really happened.
As far as he knew, several wealthy families had ended up in this way.
"But it's not a problem to go on like this!" Zhu Chengwan muttered, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
"Father, don't you know a few adults in the capital? Can you ask them for help? ”
"Help, how?" Zhu Zihao sneered.
"Let's not mention that the trade route has not been opened now, how long will it take to deliver the letter to the capital, and then come back, let's just say that this Wei Hongbin is a descendant of the Wei family, and he is considered a top family child in the capital, and the adults we support are in front of him, it is estimated that they are not fart, how can you let them help?"
"Then our Zhu family can only be slaughtered by others?" Zhu Chengwan said in despair.
"It's not as pessimistic as you think." Zhu Zihao said quietly.
"Huh? Is there any turning point? Zhu Chengwan's heart immediately ignited hope.
"Now the warriors in the city and Wei Hongbin's cavalry are on the same footing, and the contradictions between the two sides are getting deeper and deeper, I believe it won't be long before it will completely break out, and then it will be the only hope for our Zhu family to turn the tables."
"Those warriors?" Zhu Chengwan was stunned, and then asked with some hesitation: "Father, do you have such high expectations for these big bosses?" ”
"Big boss?" Zhu Zihao glanced at his only child, and then shook his head helplessly.
"With you like this, how can I trust you with my huge family business?"
Zhu Chengwan's face turned red, and he quickly lowered his head, "The child knows his mistake, and asks his father to make it clear." ”
"It is true that most of these warriors are indeed old men who can only dance knives and guns, but there are still some people among them who are dragons and phoenixes."
Speaking of this, Zhu Zihao couldn't help but think back to the young man who scolded Fang Xuan in front of him.
At that time, the young man also came to the door to fight the autumn wind, and finally took 500 cloth armors.
At that time, Zhu Zihao was still quite painful.
But now that I think about it, if I knew that this would be the result, it would be better to be more generous at that time and fund these warriors more.
After all, although these warriors are sometimes a bit of a headache, at least they are people from this county, and they have a bottom line in doing things, and they will not be as insatiable as Wei Hongbin.
It's a pity that it's too late to say anything.
Zhu Chengwan naturally didn't know this, he saw that his father was silent, and he didn't dare to ask, so he had to wait honestly on the side.
It wasn't until a long time later that Zhu Zihao said in a deep voice: "During this time, you and I will first endure the silence, I believe that it will not be long before there will be great changes in the city." ”
"When the time comes...... You have to put aside all your preconceptions, cooperate with each other, and don't act impulsively, you know? ”
In the end, Zhu Zihao raised his voice and said with a solemn face.
"Yes, the child obeys his father's teachings."
Zhao Ya didn't know about these things that happened in the city.
At this time, he was standing in the middle of the room, frowning and thinking about something.
Although it was already autumn, it was still a little hot in the house.
Zhao Ya simply took off his shirt, revealing the strong muscles underneath.
At this time, his body was covered with sweat, and his skin was faintly red, which was the traces left by the flow of qi and blood.
After a few days of retreat and hard training, Zhao Ya's strength has improved by leaps and bounds, but Zhao Ya is still a little dissatisfied with this.
Because some places are still stuck at the passes, they have not been broken through for a long time.
For example, these five tiger fists.
Speaking of which, this boxing technique can be regarded as Zhao Ya's longest-practiced martial art, and he has practiced it since he first started.
Now he has reached the peak of the realm, but Zhao Ya still feels that it is not enough.
Because the wind knife techniques learned later have all broken through the barrier and reached the realm of returning to the basics.
And after reaching this realm, Zhao Ya felt that his attainments in sword skills were not only refined, but also like being reborn.
It was this change that made Zhao Ya re-examine this Five Tiger Fist.
True.
Compared with Donkey Kong boxing, this boxing method does seem a bit crude, even in the beginner boxing method, it is considered a big road.
But Zhao Ya knew that if he could break through this boxing technique, his understanding of boxing would definitely reach a new level, and even his practice of Donkey Kong would be of great benefit to him.
After all, after martial arts reach a certain height, the principles are all the same.
Moreover, once a breakthrough is made, its actual combat capability will also be greatly enhanced.
Therefore, in addition to practicing other martial arts in the past few days, Zhao Ya spent most of his time studying this Five Tiger Fist.
But after a few days of hard training, except for a little more understanding of the Five Tiger Fist, there is no progress in other aspects, and the 1% progress is like a moat, which is insurmountable.
After thinking about it for a long time, but still getting nothing, Zhao Ya couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
He sighed.
The martial arts journey is really not so simple.
Especially when breaking through the barrier, it is often a little bit of understanding.
But just this poor perception will make you feel painful.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ya was no longer impatient.
The more anxious you are at this time, the more counterproductive it often becomes.
He pushed open the door, took a deep breath of fresh air, and stepped into the courtyard.
The drunken child was still thinking about the juice in the kitchen.
There are many dead leaves falling in the yard, indicating that autumn is approaching.
Zhao Ya stood under the tree, looking at the big tree that had been planted for some unknown years, and was silent.
"Huh? Brother Xiaoya, did you come out so early today? ”
After the drunken child came out of the kitchen, he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Zhao Ya standing under the tree.
"Well, I had a problem, so I came out to breathe." Zhao Ya said.
"Mmmm, Brother Xiaoya, what do you want to eat at noon? I'll do it for you. Drunken said happily.
"Whatever."
"Fish stew? Senior Brother Xu just sent a few fresh fish this morning, and I kept them in the pool. ”
"Yes."
"Okay, I'll clean up."
With that, Zui'er turned around and went into the kitchen, took out a kitchen knife and came to the sink.
Sure enough, there were a few big fish swimming in the pool.
Zui'er stood on the edge of the pool and watched for a moment, then suddenly reached out with his palm, grabbed a big fish directly, and lifted it out of the water.
"Hee-hee, how's it going? I've been practicing the white crane palm you taught me lately. Zui'er asked happily.
Zhao Ya couldn't help but wonder, but still nodded, "Well, the practice is good, and I have a little bit of the charm of the white crane." ”
"Well, I think so too, let me tell you, Brother Xiaoya, when I practice this palm technique, I always feel that I am a big white crane, and it is a quacky one...... Brother Xiaoya, what's wrong with you? ”
Seeing that Zhao Ya's eyes suddenly lit up terrifyingly, Zui'er couldn't help but ask with some fear.
"Hahaha it's okay, drunk, you're really my lucky star."
Saying that, Zhao Ya rushed forward, hugged Zui'er and kissed him fiercely, then turned around and entered the house, leaving Zui'er standing in place with a confused expression.
At this moment, Zhao Ya was very excited in his heart.
Oh, yes!
Now that you've done the ultimate in boxing, why not start with Shen Yun?
You must know that when he first started, Meng Lei, who taught himself boxing techniques, said that he wanted to imagine himself as a tiger descending from the mountain.
And now that he has come into contact with so many more powerful beasts, can he imagine himself as a tiger beast that is more powerful than the tiger descending from the mountain?
The more I thought about it, the more I realized that this method would work.
After returning to the house, Zhao Ya immediately began to cultivate.
When the beast tide attacked the city, Zhao Ya had encountered several tiger beasts at the peak of the Three Realms, so he was no stranger to them.
After contemplating for a while, Zhao Ya suddenly raised his eyes, took a step forward, and then punched out.
The fist roared like a tiger, stirring up dust on the ground.
And Zhao Ya felt that he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart, and took this opportunity to practice the following routines.
Ding took eight steps and pressed his fist to catch the black tiger leaping stream, the white tiger squatting, and the colorful tiger cutting its tail .......
One punch after another was presented in Zhao Ya's hands like flowing water.
At this time, Zhao Ya seemed to have turned into a powerful tiger beast, looking at the mountains and forests, making all the beasts bow down to it.
Finally, when the last move was made by the tiger, Zhao Ya only felt that the feeling in his heart was completely full, and the whole person was hearty.
At the same time, a line of prompts appeared in front of me.
[Five Tiger Fist proficiency plus 4%, promotion successful]
[Current Level: Back to Basics]
An hour late, sorry!
