Liu Hutou's boxing method is called Tiger Boxing, which resembles a fierce tiger and is extremely powerful, which is very similar to Liu Jizu's Honghuang Boxing.

The two put their fists to good use, competing in speed, strength and ingenuity. Both of them are also strength-type, Liu Jizu is taller in stature, but not as thick as Liu Hu's head, after all, Liu Jizu is not yet seventeen years old. But in terms of strength and durability, Liu Jizu is stronger, in addition to Liu Jizu's diligent practice, mainly because he is younger.

Fist is afraid of being less strong, this is a natural law, and no one can change it. In fact, after ten faces, Liu Jizu had already discovered his flaws and could easily defeat him. But for a long time, no one has practiced martial arts with him like this, Liu Jizu has some itchy hands, so he took it as a warm-up, so he has been fighting with Liu Hutou for thirty times.

The two sides attacked each other with fists and feet, and the fist shadows were vertical and horizontal, and the momentum and power could be felt from afar. But after thirty moves, Liu Hutou began to sweat and panting, and his movements were a little unable to keep up. And Liu Jizu's body happened to move at this time, he grabbed a flaw in the other party, and swept it to Liu Hutou's calf.

He stumbled, lost his balance, and was on the verge of falling to the ground.

Liu Jizu took the opportunity to use a clever hand and nudged him on his arm, allowing him to stand firm again, resolving his embarrassment, and others couldn't see it.

After Liu Hutou stood firm, he took the initiative to take a step back, glanced at Liu Jizu deeply, showed gratitude, and arched his hand: "Li Shaoxia's martial arts skills are superb, Liu is not an opponent!"

Liu Jizu has always had great respect for the bright and upright people in the rivers and lakes. From the process of fighting just now, he could see that the opponent's martial arts were very solid, and they were trained diligently. When fighting, he was also single-minded, without any despicable tricks, Liu Jizu felt that the other party had a good character, so he resolved his embarrassment.

Liu Jizu also arched his hand and said: "Accept!"

Liu Hutou asked Liu Jizu to take a rest, and he retreated behind Ji Wan's body.

But Liu Jizu didn't feel tired now, so he said: "No need to rest, please give advice to Senior Li!" After speaking, he returned to the horse, took off his fist gloves and put them back in his pocket, and pulled out the iron gun from the deerskin bag on the hook, and returned to the center of the field.

Li Siwei was a little surprised, thinking that this young man was a little arrogant! He came to the opposite side of Liu Jizu with an eyebrow stick in his hand.

Liu Jizu looked at it, and saw that this person was of medium to upper stature, with well-proportioned limbs, not as strong as Liu Hu's head, with a gloomy face, and he was not smiling. The eyebrow stick in his hand should be made of hardwood, and there are iron hoops at both ends.

Liu Jizu poked the iron gun on the ground and saluted, but the other party just nodded and swept over with a stick.

Liu Jizu was a little angry when he saw that this person didn't talk about rules and etiquette at all. He hurriedly dodged behind the gun, holding the gun with one hand, trying to block the sweeping stick with the gun. But after the other party's stick hit the barrel of the gun, there was no sound, Liu Jizu chuckled in his heart, thinking badly.

Sure enough, the opponent's stick was not smashed at all, it was just a false move, and at this time, the stick had already swept Liu Jizu's fingers along the barrel of the gun.

Liu Jizu's cheeks trembled, and he quickly let go, and pulled the barrel of the gun as he let go, so that the barrel of the gun tilted towards him. At the same time, Liu Jizu landed on the ground with one foot, and the other foot was kicking at the bottom of the barrel of the gun, and the gun was raised and stabbed towards Li Si, and at the same time brought up a large amount of soil.

Li Siwei hurriedly retreated to dodge, and the gun dodged, but he was still disgraced. He was a little angry, picked up his stick and rushed again.

This is the first time that Liu Jizu has experienced the profound stick martial arts, because the stick has no blade, and the lethality is far inferior to the knife and gun, so the people in the rivers and lakes and the battlefield use it less. However, the production of this weapon is relatively simple, and the government has always forbidden it, so it is used more by the people. Of course, the heavier iron rod is more lethal, but it needs to be used by people with great strength, and not everyone can use it.

Li Siwei's stick technique is indeed superb, what he is powerful is not strength, but skill, and most of his moves are very ingenious. He not only plays with the stick, but also uses the stick as a support and medium to cooperate with his flexible body to make a variety of difficult movements. The people around me who didn't understand it were all eye-openers, and even unconsciously shouted good.

But these fancy, imaginative moves pose little threat to Mr. Liu. Because Li Sihui's stick method is too slow in Liu Jizu's opinion, the threat is not as good as Liu Hutou. He could have ended the battle a long time ago, but because it was rare to see such a good-looking stick martial art, it wasn't until Li Siwei completed all the difficult movements that he saw a gap, knocked his stick away, and then put the head of the gun against his chest.

Li Siwei's arms trembled, and he didn't understand how the stick in his hand disappeared.

Liu Jizu took back the iron gun, ignored him, went back to his side directly, and found a place to rest. Although he was not very tired now, his physical strength had also been consumed, and Elder Long and Hou Huaigu took food and water to replenish his strength.

Li Siwei was a little angry at Liu Jizu's rudeness, but he didn't pay attention to etiquette first, not to mention that the generals of the defeated army were brave. He could only go back to his stick and return to Ji Wanquan in a huff.

Ji Wan was completely expressionless, and he didn't know what to say, he was already warming up.

Liu Jizu watched the way he warmed up while eating, which was very similar to what the academy taught, but I don't know if his martial arts have a back door, after all, his surname is Ji. Liu Jizu rested for a long time, felt that his physical strength was almost recovered, got up and pulled out his saber and came to the field.

Ji Wanquan was already waiting there, Liu Jizu took the knife, the tip of the knife pointed downwards and arched his hand towards Ji Wanquan and said, "Please teach your seniors!"

Ji Wanquan bowed his hand in return: "Please be merciful to Li Shaoxia's subordinates!" After speaking, he pulled out the saber he was carrying behind his back. That sword is somewhat similar to the Xuanyuan sword, it is a heavy sword, the blade is thick and strong, and it can be used to fight.

After the two clashed, there was a rapid and crisp sound of weapon impact, Liu Jizu's knife was fast, and Ji Wanquan's sword was not slow. And unlike those light swords used for assassination and decoration, his sword was heavy, about the same weight as his sword. And since the sword is double-edged, it has more moves than the knife, and it looks better when fighting.

This is the third time that Liu Jizu has come into contact with the Jianghu sects outside the three sects, and he feels that these people in Henan Province are much more skilled than those in Jiangbei Province and Gyeonggi Province in terms of martial arts. But he guessed that he probably hadn't met the masters of those places. However, these three people in Henan Province are indeed different, they are all masters with real skills, so he feels that the opportunity is rare, and they all deliberately fight with others for a while longer.

The two also fought for more than thirty rounds, Liu Jizu saw the sweat, and when Ji Wanquan also began to gasp, Liu Jizu slowly figured out his swordsmanship.

Ji Wanquan's swordsmanship looks like Xuanyuan Sword, but it is different, and there are a lot of changes and adjustments in the swordsmanship. I don't know if it was taught by the sect when their ancestors left the sect, or if they adjusted it themselves later at the request of the sect, or if they adjusted it themselves, anyway, those secret doors are gone. Liu Jizu thought of Feng Bao at this time, the set of swordsmanship he learned had a secret door, but Ji Wanquan's swordsmanship born from the Xuanyuan Sword did not have a secret door, I don't know if it was an intentional arrangement of the academy or an unintentional situation.

But Ji Wanquan's swordsmanship is really good, and it can be compared to the elders of the academy. Liu Jizu has seen a lot now, and his understanding of martial arts is not what it used to be, and he knows that this is already an extremely high level of martial arts. Competing with people of this level is about the physical strength, endurance, observation, control and timing control of two people.

In this regard, it is obvious that Liu Jizu is much stronger, he is younger, his reaction is much faster, his physical strength is much better, and his control is even more incomparable to Ji Wanquan, so after thirty rounds, Ji Wanquan is obviously inferior.

Liu Jizu feels that it is almost, it has been more than 30 rounds, the moves are almost seen, and the face is enough, he wants to find a flaw to defeat him in two more rounds.

Ji Wanquan seemed to sense Liu Jizu's thoughts, and after his sword and Liu Jizu's knife touched a few more times, he suddenly found an opportunity to pull back and jump out of the field.

He calmed his breath for a while, and then arched his hand and said: "Shaoxia's martial arts are world-famous, and my reputation is well deserved, I am not an opponent!

Liu Jizu didn't expect him to take the initiative to quit before he was defeated, he admired his insight and determination, and also gave up: "Admit it! Ji seniors have superb martial arts, unique vision and do what they say, and the juniors admire it tightly!"

Ji Wanquan shook his head with a smile, sighed and didn't speak, turned around and took Liu Hutou and Li Si to get on the horse and leave, and the large group of people also turned around and went the way they came.

It wasn't until they were far away that Liu Jizu circled the horses, Elder Long, and Hou Huaigu back to the camp. Everyone once again saw Liu Jizu's martial arts, and their admiration for him increased day by day.

Several people in charge came over to ask what was going on, because they were far away, and they only saw Liu Jizu and the three people doing it, and they didn't hear what they said clearly.

Liu Jizu told them what he heard, and everyone was shocked, they didn't expect such a thing to happen in the rivers and lakes, and they all talked about it.

Elder Long said: "I think this time the matter is very serious, these people from foreign countries dare to come to Da Zhou to do this kind of thing, then they must be completely sure, otherwise how dare they be so blatant." I guess they have something to do with the foreign alliance more than a hundred years ago, so it's not small!"

Hou Huaigu listened thoughtfully, and seemed to recall something, "Senior Brother Long is right, my master was killed by this foreign business alliance, so my master was very angry with this group of people and investigated for a long time. He believes that the foreign alliance is extremely strong, and it is not only in Da Zhou to do business, but that various countries have their whereabouts. Making money is the main purpose of this organization, and any industry that makes money must have their infiltration.

Originally, this is understandable, businessmen, profit-seeking is their nature. But in Dazhou, their path of profit-seeking was blocked by the Jianghu sect, and the profits did not meet their expectations. That's why they came up with a 'fire stealing plan', wantonly arresting the disciples of the three sects, and wanted to defeat each of them after fully understanding each sect.

But because a captured disciple escaped by chance, their plans were disrupted, and they were evacuated from Da Zhou in a hurry. However, my master believes that the people of the Foreign Business Alliance have never completely left Da Zhou, and their withdrawal is not in a hurry, but has been carefully planned a long time ago. And Master said that there must be some of them who are hiding, these people are no different from us in appearance, but they have been working for the foreign business alliance.

Now, these foreigners no longer care about the deterrence of the three sects, and they have directly broken in, I guess they have the strength and means to deal with the three sects, so they are so unscrupulous. For some reason, the three sects didn't take measures at the first time, which I didn't figure out. It is said that we can all guess something, there is no reason why the three sects can't guess?"

At this time, Bao Chongyi followed and said: "Everyone, this is a matter of the rivers and lakes, and I didn't have the right to speak. But I happen to know a little bit about overseas trade, but I don't know if it has anything to do with this foreign alliance?"

Everyone is very curious, they are all people in the rivers and lakes, and they don't know a lot of official and non-governmental things, so they all urge him to say it quickly.

Bao Chongyi then said: "When my father was serving as the county magistrate in Gu County, one of his came to visit his family in the same year, and this person used to work in the city department, and he told his father one thing.

He said he had heard from a foreign businessman that almost half of the current sea trade was monopolized by a mysterious organization. The organization is very wealthy and has a large number of pirates under its command. They controlled the main westward route through pirates, and captured a number of key ports and islands, and merchants who wanted to trade in the Great Zhou had to either take long detours or buy flags from them. But whichever method is chosen, it will greatly increase their costs or risks, and those businessmen are complaining but cannot afford to provoke. ”

Liu Jizu didn't understand and asked, "What does it mean to buy a flag?"

Bao Chongyi said with a smile: "Childe is right, if you want to pass through the channel they control, you have to spend money to buy their flag, and only merchant ships flying their flags can pass safely." The pirates would set the price of the flag based on the value of the goods they were transporting, just as the city would collect taxes. ”
