Chapter 56: Learning
The option of going out of the city to hunt monsters in exchange for meritorious deeds was directly ruled out by Chen Mu.
On the one hand, it is too chaotic outside the city, and the security is extremely low, and on the other hand, it takes too long to gain more than it gains, and if he really relies on the realm of meat training, he insists on killing demons to obtain merit in exchange for a Yijin Pill, it is also too shocking.
Because the people who do these things are basically the martial artists above the easy tendons in the inner city, and characters like Xu Hongyu will often go outside the city to hunt monsters in exchange for meritorious service.
"Let's think about it again, it's not in a hurry for the time being, the Heavenly Wolf can practice the meat method for at least another two months."
Anyway, no matter how bad it is, there is Xu Hongyu's guarantee, which is nothing more than a waste of time, but his strength will not stagnate because of this, and he can also improve by leaps and bounds in terms of skills, after all, it is not far from the artistic conception.
Just as Chen Mu was thinking in his heart, suddenly the old servant came to report.
Little Lotus is here.
Chen Mu immediately got up and went out.
If Min Baoyi came to him, it might be that he was looking for him to drink and listen to music, and there might not be anything important, but Xiaohe came to him, it was most likely to be to pass the word for Xu Hongyu, which was basically not a trivial matter.
When Chen Mu came to the door, he saw Xiaohe wearing a gray cloth coat and a hat standing there.
Chen Mu said hello to Xiaohe and invited people in.
In the past, Xiaohe just passed a word and left, but this time he did not refuse, but followed Chen Mu into the door, went to the house, took off the hat at the door and shook the snow on it, and then said: "You are ready to take office." ”
"Taking office?"
Chen Mu's expression moved slightly, and said, "Didn't you say that you have to wait until next year?" ”
When it comes to taking office, it is natural to replace Xu Feng and serve as the errand secretary of the 'Wutongli City Guard', but I told him earlier that it should be next year, but I didn't expect that something seemed to have happened.
Wang Ni came over with a teapot to pour tea, Xiaohe took the teacup, looked at Chen Mu and said: "Deputy General Manager He, I also want to install someone to replace Xu Chasi, if you wait until next year, maybe there will be a lot of changes." ”
"That's right."
Chen Mu nodded and said, "I don't have any problems. ”
Xiao He glanced at Chen Mu, blinked his eyes, and said: "Although Wutong is not a good place to go, but in the end, it is also a promotion to be an errand officer, why do you seem to have been demoted." ”
Chen Mu smiled, stood up and made a false gesture in the direction of the General Department of City Guard, and said: "Thank you Lord Xu for your cultivation, thank you Sister Xiaohe for your appreciation, I will definitely live up to my expectations......"
Poof.
Xiaohe couldn't hold back her laughter, revealing a little coquettishness as if the ice and snow were melting: "It's a little fake, but it should be enough to deceive Miss." ”
After a short laugh, Xiaohe returned to his positive tone again and said: "Your appointment will come down in about two days, but Wutongli is not the same as Jiutiaoli, Jiutiao is relatively remote, and it is basically Min Chasi's territory alone, although the Chijin Gang is also a force in the inner city, there is not much contradiction between it and the Yu family, so it is very stable." ”
"Wutongli is close to the center of Nancheng District, much more prosperous than Jiutiaoli, and there are as many as six or seven powerful gangs, and they are intertwined.
said.
Xiaohe told Chen Mu about the general situation in Wutong and the relationship between some gang forces.
Chen Mu roughly wrote it down, calculated the degree of threat one by one, and finally came to a conclusion...... There is not a single one who can fight.
Although the gang forces in Wutong are intricate, and even many of them have various background relationships, none of them are as direct as him, the mission of the city guard.
On the public, the city guard division is subordinate to the Daxuan Imperial Court, and is an upright 'Congbapin' official.
In terms of selfishness, he is Xu Hongyu's subordinate, a corner of the Yu family's power, no matter how much the Yu family worries about internal and external troubles, it is still one of the largest family forces in Yucheng, not all cats and dogs can touch porcelain.
In terms of strength, although each of those gangs is about the same as the Chijin Gang, the number of gangs is hundreds, and there are many good hands, but the good hands who have stood up to the sky are just practicing meat perfectly, and for him now, this level is no threat.
In a word.
He only went to Wutong to do three things, Gong...... It's a string.
"Thank you for the advice."
After Chen Mu patiently listened to Xiaohe's story, he thanked Xiaohe.
Now he is actually only interested in practicing martial arts, and when he goes to Wutong, as long as those messy forces don't mess around, he probably doesn't bother to toss with them, but if anyone is domineering and insists on jumping on his face and giving him some eye medicine, then let's try whether his bad knife is sharp.
Xiao He said, looked at Chen Mu and blinked, looked up and down: "Seeing that you are so confident, you want to practice meat and cultivate the doorway, come and let me try your level?" ”
"Okay."
Chen Mu hasn't done much with people in the past few months, but his mind is floating, and when he heard Xiaohe speak, he responded directly, and said with a smile: "Sister Xiaohe has to be merciful." ”
"Come on."
Xiaohe came to the courtyard with a smile.
She really wants to try Chen Mu's strength this time, after all, the position of the poor division, without strength, it is not stable, although five months of hard work, Chen Mu is definitely not a problem to enter the meat training Xiaocheng, plus his extreme skin grinding, his strength will not be very weak, but he still has to give it a try.
Chen Mu came to stand opposite Xiaohe, then pulled out the knife, and waved it lightly, it seemed to be soft and weak, but the snowflakes falling in the sky were suddenly engulfed by the strong wind that was raised, turning into a wild torrent and surging away.
Boom!
Xiao He picked up the soft sword in his hand a little bit, and hit the front and middle of the knife in Chen Mu's hand straight, these two blows were as fast as lightning, so that the sound of gold and iron resonating almost overlapped and turned into a long roar.
The torrent of snow that was wrapped in the knife collapsed in the air at once.
"That's the only way to go."
Little Lotus smiled.
Looking at Xiaohe's appearance, Chen Mu suddenly smiled, and the knife in his hand suddenly increased by three points, this time when the knife was released, not only the snowflakes falling in the sky were swept by the strong wind, but also the snow on the ground nearby was also wrapped up, and the mighty sword wind surged away.
Just now, Chen Mu only used less than one-fifth of his strength, which is almost the full strength of ordinary meat training Xiaocheng martial arts, but now he has added a little more, reaching about one-third, which is comparable to ordinary meat training Dacheng.
This time, Xiaohe didn't deal with it so easily.
Her gaze became more solemn, and the soft sword in her hand was thrown out, and in an instant, a sword light composed of raindrops turned into a sword light, and the sword light collided with the snow wrapped in the sword wind, and a large area of snow was scattered and scattered.
"Tempering the skin grinding realm to the limit, stepping into the meat training is indeed different, this strength is much stronger than usual, if I don't reach the level of meat training, and have the sword momentum of dripping rain, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult to parry."
"Your strength is really good now."
Xiaohe parried and commented.
Chen Mu smiled when he heard this, and said, "So what." ”
This time, he didn't increase his strength, but the poor knife in his hand flew up and down, and suddenly from the frenzy, there was a fierce and blazing wind, which was originally a frenzied wind that flipped Notten, and suddenly merged into the fierce and uncast gale, and the two winds blended with each other, turning the situation in the field upside down at once.
The bunches of snowflakes that were originally brought up were a frenzied scene visible to the naked eye, but now the speed is suddenly three points faster, and there are three points of fierceness in the frenzy, but it is a double force formed by the intersection of the wind knife and the gale sword force!
"Huh."
A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao He's big eyes, and with her vision, she could naturally tell that this was no longer a single knife posture, but a technique that incorporated two similar knife postures.
Surprised, she didn't have time to ask, the intersection of the two swords was not a joke, the pressure on the moves suddenly surged, I don't know how much, although the power exerted by Chen Mu on the poor knife was still not as good as her, but the skill suddenly opened up the gap, and for a while she had to go all out, and she could no longer do it with the ease before.
Can this be stopped?
Chen Mu looked at Xiao He, who could still fight with him, and suddenly a wisp of thought floated through his heart, and the poor knife technique in his hand changed again, if the previous knife technique was in the frenzy, adding three points of violence, then this time it added three points of agility!
The original frenzied and violent knife technique, wrapped in countless snowflakes surging and flying like a torrent, this time suddenly became a little more flexible from the turbulence, making the torrent of snowflakes seem to have turned into smart living creatures, like a snowy Jiaojiao, swinging the tail and twisting.
Crash!!!
This time the snow covered by the knife, Xiaohe's side could no longer resist it, and it surged through at once, drowning her whole person directly in it, and there was a 'yah' exclamation from it.
Chen Mu reacted quickly and immediately withdrew the knife, and at the same time shook his head secretly in his heart, how could he be provoked by Xiaohe, what did he have to do to win over her?
As soon as the knife is closed, the snow stops.
I saw that Xiaohe's whole person had been piled up with snow and turned into a snowman, covered with snow all over his body, only half of his face and a pair of big eyes were a little confused, and the whole person stood there stupidly.
"Ahem."
Chen Mu coughed.
Xiaohe woke up like a dream, his body shook violently a few times, and all the snow was thrown away, and at the same time he looked at Chen Mu with ghost-like eyes, and even his words became a little stammering: "You...... You ......"
What did she just see?
Three potentials?!
