Chapter 4
At the beginning, the Qiongxiao Sword Sect sent more people to take strict precautions, but as the Sword Sect's mountain gate became more and more tightly guarded, the number of people in the rivers and lakes and the heroes of the green forest who broke into the sect to explore the treasure not decreased, but more and more.
As the saying goes, there are no three hundred taels of silver here, the more closely Qiongxiao is guarded, and the more clarification is made to the outside world, the more the outside world thinks that your Qiongxiao Sword Sect has obtained treasures, and then the high-level officials of the Sword Sect simply don't say anything, and I will catch as many as you come.
However, after such an experience, Qiongxiao, who had already fallen to the level of living by eating his old book, was surprised to find that making money could be so simple.
In recent years, the reputation of the Sword Sect has become worse and worse, and it has been steadily overwhelmed by other major sects that are constantly rising, and its income is getting smaller and smaller.
But this financial expenditure has not decreased, what all kinds of magic weapons need to be purchased, all kinds of medicinal materials, daily consumption is needless to say, there are now a large number of high-rollers in the rivers and lakes to "generously solve problems", so for those who break into the mountain God of Wealth are only symbolic two hits, the most important thing is to capture alive.
As the so-called rich people pay to release people, those who don't have money just lack coolies in the mountains, and they throw them into the back mountains and even save the cost of hiring workers.
is the so-called fame and fortune.
Reputation, you broke into the first sect in the world at night - Qiongxiao Sword Sect, our faction not only did not punish severely, but treated each other with courtesy, you only need to pay a few thousand taels of labor fees and repair costs, and my Qiongxiao Sword Sect will return you to freedom in large quantities, and no longer care about you, do you want to thank me.
interests, who wouldn't be happy with the millions of taels of silver in the internal finances of the sect, and by the way, let the group of disciples within the sword sect who have never seen the world experience and experience, why not?
This kind of policy really played a certain role, at least now you have to check your family background if you want to sneak in, and if you can't get thrown into the back mountain to do coolies, this is undoubtedly a great shame for a person who practices martial arts, and if he is released in the future, he will inevitably be ridiculed by other martial arts colleagues.
Of course, there are many benefits, since it can be solved with money without breaking the muscles and bones, it is good after all.
......
"Knock, knock, knock ......", as the night fell, several dull bells rang throughout Qiongxiao Mountain, announcing that the repair of today's worn objects inside the Sword Sect was over.
It is said that it is repaired, but it is just to put the damaged things back in place after a little splicing, and wait for tonight's injustice to appear, so as to use this as a basis for a few hundred taels of silver, especially some large statues, it is rumored that there is a five-clawed unicorn that will fall every night, and every time it falls, it will be torn apart.
The night always comes quickly, and the dark and heavy shade of the dense forests under Qiongxiao Mountain, and the entire mountain range of Qiongxiao, which has been disturbed for several months, is exceptionally quiet tonight, and the sound of insects can not be heard in silence.
At this time, the quiet and peaceful night was broken by the sound of a thin stomping on the tree, and dozens of figures swished into the Qiongxiao Mountains from all directions, a scene that has been staged almost every night in recent months.
But today seems to be a little different, because the dozens of figures floating into Qiongxiao Mountain in front of them are all black gauze and black clothes, only the last one is a gray robe, which is particularly eye-catching, and there is no cover on the face of the figure, it is actually a handsome young man in his twenties.
The young man did not follow the dozens of black-clothed people in front of him into the dense forest, but stopped and stopped, after glancing at the mountain, he exhaled a slightly turbid breath, and then jumped on the top of a leafy tree with his feet again in a strange and unpredictable way, and gently landed on a thin branch, looking at the majestic Qiongxiao Sword Sect on the top of the mountain in the distance.
This young man's name is Sikong Ash, and he is an ordinary martial artist in Longxi Town, a big town that has recently become famous because of Qiongxiao Mountain, or a gangster in the market.
Sikong Ember is an orphan, when he was a baby, the house caught fire, and it was his master who heard the cry and rushed into the fire to rescue him, but his family did not survive.
Since he was a child, his master has relied on each other, and although his master's martial arts realm is not as good as those big names in famous schools, he is also among the sword masters who have entered the small four grades and claimed to have the realm of three grades.
The master supports the two of them all year round by taking care of the family and nursing home, but his master loves to drink, and he gets drunk as soon as he has money, and as a result, he is just as poor as he is all year round.
There is a master of the four-grade realm as his master, which is a beautiful thing that many people can't dream of, but Sikong Ember doesn't seem to be a material for martial arts by nature.
Sikong Ash, who began to practice martial arts at the age of three, no matter how his master taught, he still rose and fell in the seven-grade realm after practicing for more than ten years, Sikong Ash's martial arts realm was better than that of the market scoundrel, and he never lost in a fight.
In the end, if it weren't for his master to force him to die, of course, it must be Sikong Ember himself, after half a year of sleepless hard training, finally once holding back the strength of his body, a sword cut out more than half a zhang of sword qi, shattering a stone as big as a head, his master breathed a sigh of relief, comforted himself and said that entering the realm of the six grades is equivalent to entering the room in the martial arts hall, and the subsequent cultivation will be a matter of course.
However, he was still "fighting for qi", and he still made up for the remaining half of the sword qi in the back for more than half a year, and barely entered the middle realm of martial arts.
His master almost didn't have a mouthful of old blood spraying him, and in a fit of anger, he swore that he would never teach him martial arts again, and he would go out on a long trip that day and leave him alone.
Forced by life, Sikong Ash, who was only sixteen years old, began to do the same thing as his master, taking care of the homes of some large families, and occasionally serving as a bodyguard.
Although he is too young and earns little, he can't stand the fact that he has a good skin, and his natural Danfeng eyes are more beautiful than many girls, and his mouth is sweet, and his clever brain makes many people like him.
Therefore, there are many people who take care of his business, and the money he earns is enough to support his life, and he can occasionally have a good meal.
In this way, two years have passed in a blur.
On this day, after Sikong Ember completed his nursing task, his employer rewarded him with a brocade box, which is said to be an exclusive martial art founded by the patriarch of Qiongxiao Mountain when he ascended more than a hundred years ago, called "Broken Present Dynasty".
It's just that this cheats has long been a rotten street, and it is recognized as a necessary tool for pit abduction and abduction in Longxi Town, almost every household has it, but everyone can't understand it, even the leaders of the Qiongxiao Sword Sect can't understand what is painted in it.
There are no annotations in the whole book, and there are no rules for the ghost drawing symbols and patterns throughout.
In desperation, the Qiongxiao Sword Sect came up with a strategy of casting a wide net, took out the first layer of martial arts cheats of "Shattered Present Dynasty", and invited the masters at the peak of the martial arts world at that time to study and crack the mysteries together, in a vain attempt to find out the rules.
