Chapter 21: Events

Time passed in a cluster, and it had been a month and a half since Mo Chen went to the village outside the city for the first time to make Li Hu and the others.

During this period, Mo Chen went there twice, leaving enough for the two of them to cultivate to the consummation of the Peiyuan Realm. Among them, the main thing is Qian San, Li Hu's own talent is not bad, as early as the second time Mo Chen went there, he had already completed the Peiyuan Realm, only. After returning to the Rejuvenation Hall to receive the exercises of the Condensation Realm and began to cultivate, Mo Chen even gave all the Condensing Incense that Jing Yu had given him before, and later specially made a batch for Li Hu for him to use.

During this time, Mo Chen has been living a quiet life, and every day is still learning various pharmacology and studying the way of medicine except for guarding the pharmacist on the second floor of the Rejuvenation Hall. Although Mo Chen had already secretly learned the most secretive recipes in the Rejuvenation Hall, he only knew what it was, and he didn't know why. The way of medicine is broad and profound, and a few prescriptions are nothing. A prescription is like an answer to a question, and medicine is the formula for deriving the answer. Although a mature prescription may take generations to study, what really matters is the mastery of medicine. Of course, Mo Chen's pursuit in his heart is not the way of medicine, but the way of martial arts. But now Mo Chen's spirit has grown to the limit every day in the dream realm, but there is still a lot of distance from consummation, so he can do it, he might as well delve into medical pharmacology, maybe there will be some uses in the future.

In the afternoon, Mo Chen was quietly flipping through a book of medical skills in the house. Since Mo Chen began to study medicine, his entry into the country has also been rapid. Because Mo Chen's spirit is now strong, he has surpassed the ordinary people who have attained the perfection of the concentrating realm, and he has reached the point of never forgetting. Although he just wrote it down and couldn't understand it right away, Mo Chen Mo Chen cultivated quickly in the dream realm, and every time his spirit grew to the limit, he could also review it in the dream realm. About two months is comparable to the achievements of ordinary people in a year. Therefore, what I am looking at now is no longer a beginner's book on identifying the types of medicinal materials such as "identification of medicinal materials" and "growth environment of medicinal materials" that beginners need to learn, but a book that tells the medical skills of various types of medicinal materials and how to use them to treat various common diseases. In this ancient world, knowledge like this was especially precious to the average person. Ordinary Jianghu Langzhong relies on various experiences, and even unreliable local methods such as theology are not passed on as family heirlooms. However, members of gangs like Mo Chen can read it at will, and people can't help but feel that the status of people is really different.

When Mo Chen was feeling a lot of emotion here, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the door. At this time, the door was closed, but Mo Chen sensed that there was a person who was really walking towards him in the courtyard, and within a moment, there was a knock on the door. So Mo Chen walked to the door and opened the door, only to see a strange young man at the door. Seeing Mo Chen, the young man spoke:

"It's Brother Mo Chen, right? Jing Yu Jing Gongzi is now holding a banquet in Zuixiang Building, and sent me to invite you over. ”

"When did Jing Gongzi get out of the customs?" Mo Chen asked.

"I'm just a messenger, if you have any questions, you can ask Jing Gongzi. With that, he turned and left.

Mo Chen thought about it, turned around and closed the door and walked out.

Zuixiang House is located in the middle of Zhuangyuan Street where Huichun Hall is located, the decoration is magnificent, the characteristic crispy chicken skin is fragrant and the meat is tender, the taste is unique, and the unique Baihua Brew is also mellow in taste, with a long aftertaste, which is very attractive to some gluttonous drinkers. On weekdays, not only is the lobby full, but also the upstairs private rooms are hard to find. However, this is also the property of the Golden Scale Gang, and all the properties of the Golden Scale Gang in the entire Zhuangyuan Street are under the jurisdiction of Deacon Jing, so whenever Jing Yu comes, there are vacant seats. In the past, Jing Yu also invited Mo Chen to come over to eat and drink every once in a while, including the first time he came to see Deacon Jing was also here.

Mo Chen walked to the Zuixiang Building and walked straight to the best box on the second floor, Baixiang Pavilion. Pushing open the door, I saw a table of four people, in addition to Jing Yu and Fang Ning and Wu Yunlong, who had seen before, there was also a square-faced young man dressed in plain white clothes. Seeing Mo Chen coming, Jing Yu greeted with a smile on his face:

"Brother Mo is here, please sit down, I haven't seen Brother Mo for a long time during this period of retreat and hard training. ”

"Brother Jing's retreat this time, it seems that his cultivation has made great progress. Mo Chen also replied with a smile, and then sat down.

I haven't seen it for a while, but this Jing Yu has changed a little, the ruddy color on his face has disappeared a lot, and he looks more scholarly. When I first saw Jing Yu for the first time, although I also felt that this person's popularity was extraordinary, his face was flushed, which always made people feel a little disobedient. Later, Mo Chen learned that it was because Jing Yu was arranged to eat various medicinal diets and tonics. Now such a change shows that it should be entering the realm of contemplation, and the spirit has entered the realm. After all, people's spirit and physique are closely related, and a strong body is energetic, and if the spirit wants to grow rapidly, it will naturally consume physical vitality. This is also the reason why the foundation is also laid, and the Peiyuan Realm must be in front of the Concentrating Realm. And Jing Yu, who has laid a foundation based on various medicinal and food supplements since he was a child, can also be turned into a help when he starts to practice martial arts, helping him to improve quickly.

Listening to Mo Chen's compliment, Jing Yu shook his head with a smile and said: "Although there is a little bit of entry, it is far from meeting expectations. Then he pointed to the square-faced young man beside him. :

"This is Brother Guan Ping of Zhirui Hall, Brother Guan is usually responsible for patrolling Zhuangyuan Street, he has strong martial arts, and has made a lot of contributions to the gang, and he is only one step away from being promoted to gang deacon. I called you here this time because Brother Guan had news to convey it. ”

Na Guan Ping listened to the praise, and even waved his hand and said the award, but the smile on his face couldn't hide it. After all, everyone carries a sedan chair, and everyone loves to listen to it and be obedient, especially when this comes from the mouth of Jing Yu, a second-generation person whose father is a prominent veteran in the gang. After all, the other young people in the gang with Jing Yu's identity are all pampered, and people who see him as a good person don't look at it squarely, in comparison, this Jing Yu is more pleasing to the eye.

So in such an atmosphere of you praising me, I finally got to the point. "The so-called one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, Tuanhe County is too small, there are both our Golden Scale Gang and the Black Snake Gang. Naturally, we are going to compete with each other between the Golden Scale Gang and the Black Snake Gang. Guan Ping said:

"Although our gang leader and several hall masters are strong in martial arts, after all, a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake. Fighting with the Black Snake Gang, which is all local gangs, is also tied up. ”

Most people know that this Mo Chen is known to most people, and the gang leader and several hall masters are all from the Shouxu Palace. Twenty years ago, he founded the Golden Scale Gang, when there were many small gangs in the city, and the gang leader and others defeated many small gangs with powerful martial arts, laying a strong foundation for the Golden Scale Gang. But after all, the development of gangs is inseparable from a large number of gangs, and the gang leader and several hall masters are not without competition. Therefore, the Golden Scale Gang has only now developed to its current scale, and other small gangs are forced by the strong pressure of the Golden Scale Gang, and finally slowly formed the Black Snake Gang to entrench in the north of the city to compete with the Golden Scale Gang. This has been a foregone conclusion for many years, how can it be brought up suddenly.

Pressing down on doubts, Mo Chen continued to listen.

"But the Golden Scale Gang has developed to the present, it has been rooted in this city for twenty years, and the foundation has been established, so it is natural to prepare to slowly eradicate the Black Snake Gang and dominate this Tuanhe County.

Of course, this is not a matter of time. Everything is going on in an orderly manner, and the Black Snake Gang won't be able to jump for a few years. Speaking of this, Guan Ping's face was full of pride. looked at the few people around me who were listening quietly, and then remembered what he was going to say today:

"Of course, the Black Snake Gang will not sit still, and if they are unwilling, they will definitely be trapped in the beast. ”

With Guan Ping's explanation, everyone understood: It turned out that the Black Snake Gang had recently planned to organize some people to come to the Golden Scale Gang's territory to wreak havoc. Of course, the Black Snake Gang didn't dare to tear their faces head-on, they were now in a weak position. Secretly, he instigated people to make trouble in the territory of the Golden Scale Gang, and let out the rumors, as long as they can cause any losses, they will be considered meritorious, and those who have merit can directly join the Black Snake Gang. This caused a boil, you know, there is no shortage of all kinds of poor people in this world, and even people who kill people for a bite to eat. This kind of person has neither knowledge nor physical strength, and the Black Snake Gang didn't look down on it at all in the past, but now that the conditions are relaxed, as long as they cause losses to the Golden Scale Gang, they can join the Black Snake Gang, how can they not make people boil? As for offending the Golden Scale Gang? Anyway, if they want to join the Black Snake Gang, will they care about offending the Golden Scale Gang?

As for the Black Snake Gang, these people are not their own people, and they are not distressed when they are killed by the Golden Scale Gang. Even if you really make a meritorious contribution and come back, anyway, now that you are at a disadvantage in fighting with the Golden Scale Gang, wouldn't it be better to recruit more cannon fodder?

Therefore, the various industries of the Golden Scale Gang have not been peaceful recently, although all kinds of fights with other forces usually fall within the scope of the responsibility of the Zhirui Tang. However, this time, all the industries in the Golden Scale Gang City may suffer losses, and the number of people in the Zhirui Hall is not so large, so they send a message everywhere to be on guard.

Of course, Jing Yu called everyone over this time, not just to remind everyone.
