In addition to practicing martial arts, the husband and wife occasionally went to the medical hall, pharmacy, and field to have a look, and their lives were very leisurely. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In recent years, in addition to the eldest son Zou Li, his wife Su Fang also gave birth to his second son Zou Hai, fourth daughter Zou Ying, and the younger sister gave birth to the third son Zou Tao.

The eldest son, the second son and the fourth daughter can all practice health preservation, but the third son, Zou Tao, cannot practice.

In recent years, Zou Wu in order to find the reason for the murder of his parents, he went to the place where his parents were killed to check, and moved his parents' mausoleum to Zoujiazhuang, with the profound skill, but also swept away a lot of mountain bandits who occupied the mountains nearby, still did not find any clues, internal strength and martial arts have collected a lot, one of which does not know where the mountain bandits came from, very old, the above description can even go straight to the congenital.

The eldest son, Zou Li, has poor qualifications, and it has been five years since he practiced health preservation before he broke through to the second layer, which made him quite worried.

The second son, Zou Hai, although he was only eleven years old, had broken through to the second layer, which gave him a surprise.

Zou Li is not very old but very sensible, he knows that his qualifications are not good, and he practices very hard, when he was eleven years old, in order to learn more medical skills, he went to the county town to study with his grandfather, and he saw his grandfather's medical skills all over again, but he never missed his own practice time. His uncle was amazed, saying that this kid was a cultivator.

In order to hone himself, he asked to walk the dart with the dart master, and the last incident happened.

This incident hit Zou Li very hard, especially when his best friend was killed and his master was injured.

I heard that the Crouching Tigers have a physical training technique: it is called 'Iron Bone Gong'.

This skill is said to be extremely difficult to practice, and without special qualifications, it cannot be practiced at all.

If you can practice to a high depth, you can also break through to the innate above.

He didn't know what level it was above the congenital.

But he heard that the Crouching Tiger Gang has cultivated the Iron Bone Skill to the level of congenital or above for nearly a thousand years, and there are only a few hands, and many more people are stuck on the fourth or sixth layer. In addition to qualifications, the pain suffered by physical training is not something that ordinary people can endure.

When Zou Li heard this, he gave him a hope, but he directly ignored the suffering he had suffered.

Isn't it hard to practice functions?

The Crouching Tiger Gang recruits disciples every five years, and the recruitment conditions are extremely strict, in addition to the age limit of 12-15 years old, they also have to test their endurance and qualifications.

This makes Zou Li worry about his qualifications, but if he doesn't try, how can he pass his own level.

After Zou Li returned from the county seat, he told his parents his thoughts.

His father didn't stop him, but just told him that if he was sure, he should go on resolutely and not give up halfway.

Zou Li just replied to his father with a firm gaze.

Only her mother Li Sufang is reluctant, the gangs in the rivers and lakes are too complicated, and she is worried that Zou Li will suffer if she goes, but Zou Li has made up her mind.

The Crouching Tiger Gang is located in Wohu Mountain, Shanyang County, Ye County, Ye County is also one of the five counties of Jingzhou, and there is a Xiang County between Xia County and Ye County.

Wohu Mountain is a branch of the Qinmang Mountains, which stretch for tens of thousands of miles and borders with the three kingdoms of Chu, Chen and Song.

Although Crouching Tiger Mountain is only a branch vein, it is also thousands of miles in radius, composed of dozens of large and small peaks, and the main altar of the Crouching Tiger Gang is located on the main peak.

The main peak is nearly 500 zhang high, the strange peaks are stacked, extremely steep, and dozens of mountain peaks are clustered around.

Yejun has many mountains and vast lands, and was originally given by the first king of Chu to a general who expanded his territory with the king of Chu, but he was destroyed by the king of Chu for the crime of rebellion more than a thousand years ago, and the family of the county was also implicated.

Thousands of years ago, the first gang leader of the Crouching Tiger Gang, I don't know where to go, suddenly emerged, swept through Jingzhou, invincible, and finally established a gang in Crouching Tiger Mountain, initially mainly engaged in medicinal materials and jade, and the sphere of influence was bounded by Ye County and Xiang County.

It was not until 500 years ago that the business expanded to restaurants, refiners, darts, gambling and other industries. The gang also expanded from nearly 3,000 people to nearly 10,000 people, and Crouching Tiger Town also came into being.

Since the Crouching Tiger Gang is not a family, the gangs it recruits involve the entire Jingzhou area, so it is also extremely famous in Jingzhou.

Of course, the whole Jingzhou is not the Crouching Tiger Gang, in addition to the major families, there is another behemoth in Jingzhou, that is, the Jiaolong Gang that rose soon before and after the Crouching Tiger Gang, this gang is mainly engaged in rivers and shipping, but now it is also the same as the Crouching Tiger Gang and all other profitable businesses. Its power spans Jingzhou and Huzhou, and it often fights with the Crouching Tiger Gang because of its interests, and its strength is comparable.

Xia County is a buffer zone between the two gangs.

Of course, although the Crouching Tiger Gang and the Jiaolong Gang are powerful, they are still dominated by big families in state and county towns.

Therefore, the forces of all sides are not in peace.

Thousands of years of inheritance, the management of the Crouching Tiger Gang has been extremely mature, with a gang leader, two deputy gang leaders and an indefinite number of elders in the hall, it is said that there are also Taishang Elders, according to the Crouching Tiger Gang rules, as long as you are promoted to the innate will be automatically promoted to the Taishang Elder.

Elder Taishang doesn't care about anything, he specializes in cultivation, or goes out to look for opportunities, unless it is a matter of life and death for the Crouching Tiger Gang, and rarely comes forward.

The gang leader, the deputy gang leader, and the elders in the elder hall must reach the level of martial arts before they can serve.

The major matters in the gang are decided by the gang leader, the deputy gang leader and the people in the elder hall, but the people in the elder hall do not participate in the management of specific matters, and it is divided into six halls: the tiger hall, the leopard hall, the eagle hall, the medicine hall, the law enforcement hall, and the miscellaneous hall.

The hall master and deputy hall master of the six halls must also reach the strength of the martial arts sect or above to serve, and the deacons are at least the late stage of the martial arts master.

Of course, there are also disciples who break through to the realm of the late stage of martial arts, but they are unwilling to take up the position of the gang, so they are promoted to the elders of each hall, enjoy the treatment of the gang according to their rank, and contribute to the gang when there is something in the gang.

Tiger Hall is actually an elite disciple of the Crouching Tiger Gang, recruiting extremely strict, non-qualified, reliable character, and cannot be selected, and its role is mainly to cultivate core figures for the Crouching Tiger Gang. The gang leader, the deputy gang leader, and most of the elders are from among them. Usually the number of people collected in each session does not exceed 30, and they are responsible for small-scale foreign conquests and assassinations;

Eagle Hall is more special, recruiting about 20 people every five years, mainly responsible for foreign intelligence spying.

The disciples of these two halls each trained separately, and the others rarely knew the content of the training, especially the people from the Eagle Hall, who were not related personnel and no one knew about it.

After the three-year training period expires, according to the cultivation and personal wishes, they will be assigned to the Leopard Hall, the Medicine Hall, the Law Enforcement Hall, the Miscellaneous Hall, etc.

Leopard Hall is mainly responsible for escorting goods and taking care of businesses everywhere to prevent anyone from making trouble;

Medicine Hall: It is divided into Medicine Hall and Medicine Collection Hall;

If anyone violates the system in the gang, once caught by the law enforcement hall, it will be miserable, and the light will be the flesh and skin, and the heavy will be wasted, driven out of the Crouching Tiger Gang, or even directly killed;

The miscellaneous hall is to operate and manage the business of the Crouching Tiger Gang in various places, help the daily chores of the middle disciples, and the steward disciples are selected at the entrance of each hall. For example, every five years, the recruitment and verification of disciples, as well as the daily management of the daily life of the middle school disciples, are responsible for the miscellaneous affairs hall.

The iron bone skill that Zou Li said is the treasure of the town gang in the Crouching Tiger Gang, which was originally practiced by the Crouching Tiger Gang, and he created such a big foundation with this skill.

It's a pity that this skill is said to be incomplete, even so, after practice, it is enough to laugh at the innate pride.

However, for hundreds of years, the Crouching Tiger Gang has had very few successful practitioners, so it has fallen to the point where ordinary disciples can also practice.
