Before the end of the year, Gaoliu County ushered in a heavy snowfall, the north wind howled, and the mountains and rivers were white.

Rustling~

In the heavy snow, a middle-aged swordsman wearing coarse clothes and a wolf skin coat stepped into the snow, passed through the dense forest, and came to a very hidden mountain col.

In the col, there are simple wooden houses, half of which are exposed, and the other half is clinging to the mountain wall.

"Long-term dart game, forging soldiers to shop ......"

Looking at the half-collapsed wooden house, Qiao Hu's face twitched, this is the most secret stronghold of his Viper Gang, and it is also the last stronghold.

That Cao Yan fought like crazy, ruining half of his life's hard work.

"Two masters!"

"The ...... of the Second Master"

When Qiao Hu walked into the mountain pass, many bandits who were in tattered clothes but could not hide their fierceness poured out.

"Brother, haven't you been out yet?"

Qiao Hu glanced at it, and his face turned dark.

There are thousands of Vipers Gang, and now, there are only more than a hundred left, and with a little consolation, these are all elites.

"I want to thank Cao Yan, without his persecution, the old man would not have made up his mind to retreat for more than half a year, and repair the broken door knife to a complete ......

The strong wind rushed out of the cave, and an extremely burly old man pressed his knife out, his eyes fierce:

"Second brother, how's that?"

The old man's name is Shan Xuan, who is the leader of the Viper Gang, born in Orion, and has been rampant in the mountains and forests for many years with a broken door knife.

"Cao Yan must be dead! I led people to rob them of two batches of goods, but I didn't see anyone else, but the people of the Yuan family went with me......

"The debt of death is not extinguished! Cao Yan broke my family business, and I will take away his family business! The Yuan family, don't try to stop me......

Shan Xuan's face sank like water, he strode into the mountain pass, looked around at the group of bandits, and was about to say something, when he suddenly raised his head.

Just as I saw a burst of fire, it exploded.

"Dick, you're being followed!"

Shan Xuan's expression changed greatly.

Qiao Hu was stunned and incredulous: "Impossible, Cao Yan can't catch up with me, who can follow me?"

"Run!"

All the bandits changed color, and when they didn't see the enemy, they turned around and rushed to the wooden house one by one.

The cave behind the wooden house leads in all directions, and as long as you escape into it, many people can escape.

Their reaction was not unpleasant, but it was no faster than a bow and arrow!

"Shoot the arrows!"

In the dense forest, Zhou Qianzhong waved his hand, and the city guards who were dormant in it released their bowstrings one after another.

I could only hear the sound of 'Boom, arrows raining down, setting off a large field of blood and screams.

"Takayanagi Castle Guard!"

The horizontal knife cut off one arrow after another, Qiao Hu's eyes were about to split, and he turned around to escape, but he heard a loud rumbling sound, and on both sides of the mountain col, a large boulder actually rolled down, smashing down one wooden house after another.

"Ahh

"The Great Master......

"Rats, do you only dare to sneak attack?!"

In the mountains and forests, the screams resounded, and Shan Xuan roared angrily and cut through a big stone, his qi and blood were strong, and his knife skills were sharp, cutting through stones and arrows.

He cursed angrily, but turned around and rushed towards the cave.

"Still want to go?"

In the dense forest, Zhou Qianzhong raised his hand indifferently, and one after another cold crossbow arrows shot out one after another, and the sound of breaking the air was extremely piercing, stopping him outside the cave.

Then, in the dense forest, on the mountain pass, hundreds of city guards rushed down, forming a formation of three or five, and the sword light was like practice, killing all the remaining bandits.

Shan Xuan's roar gradually weakened, and he was killed by a team of city health guards, and on the other side, Qiao Hu was unwilling to roar, and was pressed to the ground by the neck of the knife.

"The rabble, even if it is led by a strong warrior, is not inferior to an army of the same number."

On the mountain pass, Li Yuan, who took the lead in pushing stones and smashing people, patted the snow on his hands.

This mountain col, he discovered it a few days ago, and Qiao Hu's light skills were not worth mentioning at all in front of him who was in charge of the Liuhe boots.

But he didn't choose to do it himself.

Instead, he informed Zhou Duzhong, the commander of the city guard.

The results are the same for both sides and left.

"Vipers, it's over."

Yuan Pingjun put down the big stone in his hand.

In the mountain col, hundreds of bandits were strewn everywhere, the blood melted the snow, and only a few were held down.

The city guards are very good at suppressing bandits, first bows and then crossbows, and then rush to kill in formation, and all the elites of the Viper Gang were wiped out in one wave, but only more than a dozen people were injured.

"One-on-one, many-to-many, one-to-many, many-to-one...... Fighting is also a technical job!"

It was the first time for Li Yuan to see such a big scene, and he gained a lot of knowledge: "Sneak attack...... It's important to be first."

He felt that if he was replaced by his current self and was surrounded by a sudden attack, he was afraid that he would only be able to run away with his Liuhe boots.

First bow and then crossbow and then formation, a simple three-plate axe, but very effective.

Even if it is a strong martial artist, it is difficult to last too long, once the internal strength is exhausted, it is easy to be strangled, not to mention, there are deputy commanders such as Zhou Qianzhong to suppress the formation.

'If it were me, I would definitely flee first, and then look for an opportunity to attack and kill Zhou Qianzhong and other deputy commanders, and then slowly figure it out...... Well, hexagram boots are important, and light work is also important......

Li Yuan summed up the gains and losses in his heart, and also thanked Zhou Qianzhong, the current leader of the city guard, who used to be a miscellaneous disciple of the Divine Soldier Valley.

"Suppressing bandits is the duty of the city guards, so I can't thank you."

A smile appeared on Zhou Qianzhong's face.

If anyone else begged for it, it would be impossible for him to run away with the city guards like this, but he knew too well the weight of the inner disciples of the Divine Soldier Valley.

"The public is for the public, the private is for the private, Senior Brother Zhou's favor is remembered by Senior Brother Zhou."

Li Yuan gave his hand and was very grateful.

In order to be the shopkeeper, he also took a lot of effort, the favor of the city guard is not something that anyone can owe, but if he goes online, it must be of great benefit.

Han Chuijun's relationship is a stepping stone, but after knocking on the door, what to do and what to do depends on himself.

"Senior brother is too polite."

Zhou Qianzhong's smile became much more natural, which made Yuan Pingjun on the side feel amazed.

This shopkeeper Li was so different from the geniuses he had ever seen......

Qiu Da stood far away, his face expressionless.

"The little brother will hold a banquet in the Spring Breeze Building tonight, and the elder brother and all the brothers must enjoy the light!"

Li Yuanli was very well controlled, not only Zhou Quanzhong, but also several other deputy commanders were also invited one by one, of course, there was also Qiu Da.

During this time, he had already bought several of the fundamental maps confiscated by the county government and the Yuan family, but the best ones were all left in the city guards.

"Well said, well said!"

Several of the deputy commanders smiled in response.

They may not care about the banquet of the shopkeeper of the forging shop, but the talent of Gao Yanagi, who is favored by Han Chuijun, is the first, and the banquet of the future disciples of the inner sect of the Divine Soldier Valley is different.

In the mountain col, the blood is not dry, and outside the dense forest, several people talk happily.

Li Yuan also completely settled down:

"The last hidden danger has also been swept away, and after the New Year, you can rest assured that you can go to the Dragon Mansion!"

……

……

In the evening, after the banquet, Li Yuan returned to the forging shop.

The night wind was cold mixed with snowflakes.

Whew~

Inside the precincts, there was a strong wind.

Li Yuan stepped on the snow, only wore inner armor, his hands and feet were bare, and he danced with a hammer, and used a long hammer to perform poisonous snake marksmanship.

Call!

The long hammer breaks through the wind and dances out of a dense hammer shadow.

The wind-breaking mallet of 100 catties was like nothing in Li Yuan's hands, and it was extremely fast, and a large area of snow was blown up by the strong wind and shattered by the hammer shadow.

His hammer was so powerful that when it fell, it swam away like a poisonous snake, turning into a gentle wind that blew patches of snow.

He was like a spirit ape, shaking his arms, sometimes like a python, running more than ten meters, wandering in the compound, setting off a large area of strong wind and snow.

A Great Perfection-level mantle hammer

The law gradually has the taste of the green snake gun, masculine and feminine, and seems to gradually overlap.

"Ugh!"

At a certain moment, Li Yuan snorted, the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and the soreness and itching that seeped into the muscles and bones were unbearable, but he still gritted his teeth and danced the hammer, and endured himself.

"Almost......

The hammer landed, Li Yuan let go, took out a high-grade replenishing Yuan Dan and took it, the heat flowed into the abdomen, quickly spread to the waist and abdomen, and then spread to the whole body along the big tendons around the body.

Buzz~

With his arms stretched, Li Yuan even heard the churning sound like a bow and crossbow, which was the tendons of his whole body stretching and tensing.

A feeling of swelling stretched from the Achilles tendon to the shoulders, arms, and palms, and the blood in the whole body was boiling.

Li Yuan felt himself swelling.

It's not a feeling!

He straightened his hands, the tendons on his arms tensed, and the muscles were pushed up, more than doubling their normal swells.

Not only his hands, but also his waist, abdomen, back, thighs, and even calves and feet, all of them were inflated by the stretching of the tendons.

The whole person seems to be one size bigger in an instant!

Collapse!

After the tendons were tensed to the limit, Li Yuan danced with a hammer, and all the strength of his body was vented, making a muffled sound like thunder.

Within a few meters, the wind howled, and large expanses of snow were pushed around.

Bang!

Li Yuan jumped up, jumped into a large vat full of coarse iron sand, stood up as a soldier, and stirred wildly.

The numbness that grew stronger and stronger gradually turned into a sharp pain, and with a click, another vat was scrapped, and iron sand flowed all over the ground.

"Delicious!"

Li Yuan was trembling all over, and his hands and feet didn't obey the call, but he was facing the sky on his back, and after the pain, it was a great refreshment.

Snake waist python tendon, it's done!

"It's dangerous, fortunately, the expansion is temporary, otherwise it would have been bad......

Gently patting his hands and feet that had not changed, Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

When the tendons swelled, the inner armor was almost burst, and his whole person swelled to nearly two meters, and his palm was as big as a fan......

Call!

After lying in the cold snow for a long time, Li Yuan stood up with a carp, shook his arms, and made a loud sound like a steel whip.

"The tendons are one inch long, and the strength is three points bigger! Leopard Fetal Yijin Pill has not been so intuitively improved......

Li Yuan raised his fist and shook his legs, only to feel that his strength had increased greatly, and his force was more flexible.

He stepped a little, and his body rushed out more than ten meters like a python, turning halfway, and turning again, his sensitivity also skyrocketed.

"The blood is more condensed, and the internal strength is ......."

Li Yuan rubbed his body and ran forward, clenched his fists and slammed it, and the bluestone erected under the big tree shattered in response:

"Quenching the body, it's done!"

The pain was still there, but Li Yuan was very excited.

Obtained from Cao Yan, the pill worth hundreds of taels was taken, which not only made his roots and bones easier, but also developed the strength of the white ape and stepped into the quenching body!

"The pill is really a good thing, my qi and blood circulation has been completed, keep taking the pill, keep practicing martial arts, and quench the body to achieve great success!"

With a light tap under his feet, Li Yuan lifted the hammer and moved, Xu Tuibing's body recovered his blood and qi, relieved the pain on his body, and also felt the subtle changes after the root bone changed again.

His qi and blood recovery speed was further accelerated, his body was more flexible, his waist and abdomen strength skyrocketed, and he had amazing toughness.

Before, some of the moves in the soldier's body that he had a little difficulty fighting became very easy, and the overall became more fluid.

"The bee waist, the ape arm, the snake waist, and the python tendons, the four are formed! Coupled with the tiger's back and bear's waist, it is a six-shape, work hard, and in March next year, you may be able to make a nine-shape!"

Fighting the posture of the soldiers over and over again, Li Yuan was immersed in it, forgetting his tiredness, and only felt so refreshed that he didn't want to waste any time.

It wasn't until the medicinal power of the Replenishing Yuan Pill was exhausted that he regained his momentum, scrubbed it, closed the door tightly, blew out the candle flame, and lay down with his clothes closed.

……

【Fourth-Order Commander】

[Commandable Blade: 4]

In the space of the soldiers, there are one large, two small and three incense burners on the gray stone platform, and the rest of the space is enough to put a few hammer soldiers.

The day after the transaction with Yuan Pingjun, Li Yuan used the silver in the forging shop to be promoted to the head of the army.

The gray stone platform grew and widened again, the number of blades that could be controlled increased by one, and the time to change the blades was further reduced, to six hours, and it could be changed four times a day, which greatly met his needs.

At this moment, four large stars shone brightly in the starry sky transformed by the Commander's Basket, and on them flashed spears, root maps, and the shadows of hammer soldiers.

"The Forge is really my treasure!"

Counting the many blades and items in the incense burner, Li Yuan felt a little satisfied.

Third-order blades are hard to find, but second-order and first-order blades are forged hundreds of thousands, and there are naturally some high-quality products.

Swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, forks, whips, all kinds of blades, as long as the control effect has its own uniqueness, he has it in his hand.

For this reason, he spent all his money, not to mention, and the monthly money for the next year was spent in advance.

"It's a pity that there are no third-order blades in the shop, and few people order them......

Third-order blades, Li Yuan only has three at the moment, the six-edged hammer, the cold iron sword, and the Qiushui sword.

Cao Yan's secret room was so well hidden, before the heavy snow, he dug the inner courtyard three feet into the ground, but he couldn't find it.

"When the snow stops, keep digging!"

Li Yuan didn't give up, with his current physical strength, a person with a shovel, no matter how hard the soil is, he can dig it, he doesn't believe that he can't dig it.

"Whew!"

Before falling asleep, Li Yuan replaced the Blue Snake Marksmanship Fundamentals and the two spears, and replaced them with two Tiger Head Knives and the Tiger Roar Knife Fundamentals:

"The pill is not enough, why don't you withdraw the monthly money of the year after tomorrow and the year after tomorrow?"

……

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The sound of firecrackers came and went.

"The third brother, come, have two drinks with the second brother!"

"Don't drink too much alcohol and eat something......

On Chinese New Year's Eve, Li Yuan returned to the ancestral home, the family had a meal, knowing that he was leaving, his brother and sister-in-law were a little reluctant, one kept clinking glasses, and the other kept picking dishes.

Li Yuan did not refuse, drank wine, ate food, chatted with his brother and sister-in-law, instructed, and also went to hug the two milk babies.

A few months have passed, and the two little ones have grown a lot, and they have a name.

Peace, clouds and snow.

……

As soon as the year passed, the heavy snow had not stopped, and several people in the inner and outer cities were already preparing to go to Yulong Mansion, and Liu Zheng and Wang Peiyao also came to invite him to accompany him.

Several people agreed on a time, and Li Yuan accelerated the excavation speed in the backyard, and by the eighth day of the new year, Liu Zheng and the others were ready to leave.

He shoveled down again, and finally a light appeared in front of him:

【Golden Silk Snake Hand (4th Order)】
