The arrangements were completed, and it didn't take long for Shi Cheng to come back.

Half an hour later, in the study.

Shi Tong's face was not very good-looking, and he looked preoccupied, at this moment, in the study, there were only Shi Tong and the three true disciples, and Qin Li had not come back yet.

Although Lin Ziyue was injured, after Shi Tong pushed the palace to activate blood, his normal actions were no longer in serious trouble.

In the face of these true disciples, Shi Tong still looked very concerned, carefully asked Lin Zi to try the injury, and observed for a long time before saying:

"Your injury is not light, you will be recuperated for a few months, and you won't do it again during this time. ”

"Yes, Master. Lin Ziyue naturally believed in Shi Tong's vision and said solemnly.

"The two little ghosts of the Zeng family also have some ability, when the old ghost Zeng fought with me, he was beaten by me with a punch, and his two sons fought for anger, hehe..."

Scrap with one punch?

Li Wuxian secretly felt that this master was really domineering, and he spoke frankly enough.

Shi Tong's face was cold, and there was a bit of cold light in his eyes.

Shi Tong is a generation of grandmasters, although everyone has never seen him really make a move, but this time he just said this casually, and several people felt cold.

Li Wuxian was particularly touched, and originally thought that his Qiankun Seal could inspire some Grandmaster-level attacks, but at this moment, facing Shi Tong, who was slightly angry, he felt like a small fence floating in the sea.

Sure enough, the grandmasters are all outstanding people who are one in ten thousand, and they can't be measured by common sense.

"Master, Gong Tuo actually wanted to do it just now, if it weren't for Senior Brother coming back, Senior Brother Wuxian might have started with him. ”

Lin Ziyue was like a child who was complaining to his parents at this time, and his words were not angry.

Shi Tong sighed and said, "I just met Yin Wuji, the master of the Blood Moon Gate, and chatted a few words. ”

said that they had chatted a few words, but Li Wuxian and the others still didn't know, it must be that the two grandmasters were testing something with each other, as for whether there was a "hand-in-hand", then everyone didn't know.

"This Blood Moon Gate..."Shi Tong's momentum subsided, and everyone was a lot more relaxed, "I want to merge with the Yujin City Alliance, our Jinyun Gate is also a big faction in Yujin City, and we want to seek our support." ”

The three did not speak.

Shi Tong seemed to be careful about his words: "They want to merge all the sects of our Tulip City into the Blood Moon Gate. ”

The Blood Moon Gate is in charge of the entire White Stone City Martial Alliance, why does it want to extend its hand to Tulip City, it is naturally because of economic interests.

Before Lin Ziyue and Li Wuxian could speak, Song Gang said angrily:

"How can this be reasonable, is this a merger? He Xueyuemen thinks that he is the king of heaven, Lao Tzu?"

Song Gang is a tough person, and he said it bluntly. And the people understood what he meant.

The Blood Moon Gate seems to have a great desire for power, and is in charge of the Warrior Alliance.

In fact, in Yujin City, Jin Yunmen also has this strength, but it didn't do it. If the Martial Alliance of Yujin City merges in the past, it stands to reason that the Golden Cloud Gate will also belong to one of the members of the Elder Council of the Martial Alliance, which is equivalent to being merged by the Blood Moon Gate.

There are also things that happen from time to time on the rivers and lakes, but most of them are very small sects, and they really can't get mixed up, so they will take the initiative to ask to join the big sects and seek a refuge.

Jin Yunmen is a great sect with a grandmaster-level inheritance, and nearly one-tenth of the actual control of Yu Jincheng is in the hands of Jin Yunmen, how can he agree to the merger.

Shi Tong continued: "You just have a good idea of this matter, the small martial arts hall and the small sect of the three sects and nine streams on the side of Yujin City have all seconded it, and I have not expressed my position. As long as we can beat Jinyunmen to the top 30 in the country in this qualifying competition, there may be room for turnaround, otherwise ......" seemed to think of something, and he did not continue.

Shi Tong sighed, and Li Wuxian suddenly felt that although he was a grandmaster, the master was indeed old.

He has been in Jinyunmen for a long time now, in fact, he has already noticed that Jinyunmen is only a middle and lower level sect in the whole country, and it is far inferior to the great master of the Blood Moon Gate.

The strength of the Blood Moon Gate covers almost half of the country's transportation system, and for this alone, he has a pivotal position in the national power circle.

"I have to go out when I come back this time, and I've had a good chat with Yin Wuji, but I won't mention it before qualifying. ”

Li Wuxian even suspected that if it weren't for Shi Tongnai's Grandmaster-level figure, the Blood Moon Sect would not have talked about these things with a small sect at all.

The merger faction is only a "appearance", and the real purpose is to annex the inherent industries of the sect. Jinyunmen's industry in Yujin City accounts for one-tenth of the amount of Yujin City, which is the key. Unless the Golden Cloud Gate loses all the properties and "cleanses" it out and starts over, the Blood Moon Gate Moon will not be targeted.

Thinking of this, he also felt bored - the steel cannons of foreigners were mounted at the door of their homes, there were concession areas everywhere, and their own people were still fighting.

The infighting in the rivers and lakes, similar to "warlord secession", is just for the sake of profit.

"Foreigners are eyeing each other, but my Gulan martial arts are scattered. Song Gang shook his head.

"Foreigners, not to be underestimated. Shi Tongtong knocked on the table with his hand, "I also got another news for the division - half a month ago, a grandmaster of the Black Sand Martial Alliance was besieged and killed by a mercenary team of foreigners on the Western side. ”

Everyone was shocked: "Can mercenaries besiege the grandmaster?"

Shi Tong shook his head, "The technology of foreigners is developing with each passing day, and recently they have invented an artillery that can strike across several cities, which they call 'rockets'. The mercenary squads of the upper ranks of foreigners are equipped with powerful artillery. Science and technology - faster than martial arts, and weapons have combat effectiveness as long as they are equipped, unlike martial arts that are difficult to achieve without years of hard training. ”

"Although the rocket division has never seen it with his own eyes, to shoot a shell thousands of miles away, the energy drive contained in this itself is already breathtaking, beyond the reach of manpower. ”

"This matter has been blocked in China, after all, it is too big a blow to the martial arts in the East. As a teacher, I also heard it from a few friends abroad. This is also the first time that a Grandmaster has been killed by a firearm!"

Li Wuxian smelled a different taste: "In this way, the foreigners may soon invade." "As long as they perceive that firearms can suppress the Grandmaster, they will not give up the invasion.

"Maybe sooner than we thought. "Stone passages.

The crowd was silent for a moment.

This is the sorrow of the era of the end of martial arts.

Li Wuxian knew in his heart that sooner or later, the development of science and technology would only get faster and faster, just like the time of the earth, the era of cold weapons lasted for thousands of years, but with the advent of the steam age, science and technology are advancing day by day, and in the future wars, the power that individuals can exert will only become smaller and smaller.

Under the overwhelming rockets, no matter how many grandmasters there are, it is in vain.

Even, if the foreigners were the first to invent the atomic bomb, and an atomic bomb was dropped, the entire White Rock City would be gone, and the grandmaster would be no different from ordinary people.

Sensing the psychology of several apprentices, Shi Tong smiled slightly, and suddenly asked, "What are you practicing martial arts for?"

Song Gang said: "Inheritance." Passed down from generation to generation, the philosophy and wisdom of the ancients on the human body will be passed on. ”

Shi Tong looked at Lin Ziyue again, and Lin Ziyue said: "Self-cultivation." ”

Shi Tong looked at Li Wuxian again.

Li Wuxian pondered for a while and said, "I don't know about others, for myself, I just want to see where I have come." He paused, "Even if it's not an opponent of firearms, it's nothing, flesh and blood, there is always a limit." What Li Wuxian thought in his heart was, what kind of level does Li Langhuan's realm belong to, and ordinary science and technology will also be beaten.

Shi Tong smiled, stood up, and faced the lake.

"The way of martial arts is to break the threshold of life and death and explore the secret of the mixing of heaven and man. In terms of power, science and technology will sooner or later surpass the martial arts, but why should the martial arts be compared with steel and gunpowder? Manpower is limited, but the Tao is unlimited.

When the Tao is subtle, the human body can perceive its own subtle bones and blood vessels. When entering the chemical realm, take the barriers and fill them out, and the human body breaks the barrier between nature and the human body. After that, there is the grandmaster, who is clear and can travel hundreds of miles.

Such an experience, like a fairy, is the wonder of life, how can it be judged by its 'power' alone?

Even, the martial arts predecessors speculated that when they reached a certain level, immortality and long-term vision may not be ethereal. ”

After Shi Tong's words were finished, the whole person volleyed away and entered the lake.

The three of them opened their eyes wide, as if they were looking at a fairy.

I also understood that Shi Tong showed his means a little, so that they would not lose confidence in martial arts.

Around Shi Tong, a lot of light was constantly distorting, and if you didn't pay attention to it, you would feel that the place where he was floating seemed to be just a dangling light.

"You have been practicing hard these days, and you are going to invite familiar grandmasters to gather for your teacher, and hold an introductory ceremony for my immortals!"

As he spoke, Shi Tong's big sleeves fluttered, and the whole person floated away like a wild goose.

Lin Ziyue said, "My Immortal Senior Brother has been getting started for a while, and now that his cultivation has also risen, it's time to hold a ceremony to accept apprentices." ”

"It seems that the master wants to expand the reputation of the sect in the name of the apprenticeship ceremony, and also make the Blood Moon Sect dare not be too presumptuous. Song Gang thought more deeply and patted Li Wuxian on the shoulder.

"Yes. Li Wuxian was speechless for a while, and all kinds of tastes were in his heart.

...

...

On the second day, Song Gang escorted Lin Ziyue back to Yujin City.

Li Wuxian broke away from meditation and muttered to himself:

"There is still a month to go before the apprenticeship ceremony, and after the apprenticeship ceremony, the New Year will begin, and the martial arts qualifying tournament will begin. Since Master values me so much, I can't afford to be ashamed of this qualifying match......"

Li Wuxian secretly made up his mind, ready to make a splash, thinking of this, he directly called the inner disciple and said:

"During this time, my practice progress has been too slow...... I'm going to go out and travel for a while, and I'll be back in a month, and if Master asks, he will say that I'm going out to practice. ”

"Yes, brother. ”

The inner disciple's eyes twitched a little, and his progress was slow, what the hell was it? During this time, he had seen with his own eyes that Li Wuxian had gone from the pain when he was "beaten" at the beginning, to now he was almost completely unresponsive to the iron rod. Isn't that all slow progress?

...

Half an hour later, at the entrance to the White Rock Frontier Zone.

Li Wuxian handed over his Martial Arts Alliance certificate, and the soldier who protected him nodded, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

As long as the martial artist has the certification of the martial arts league, he can go to the field to practice, and the state implements an incentive policy for this part.

On the one hand, it can improve the strength of the warriors, and on the other hand, it can also destroy some beasts and expand the scope of the safe zone.

Of course, after the warrior enters the wilderness, life and death are conceited, and the country does not care.

The soldier wearing a steel helmet led Li Wuxian to an office hall, and after entering, Li Wuxian found that there were people coming and going, about thirty or forty people, and these people knew at a glance that they were all warriors.

"Little brother, is that you?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came.

Li Wuxian looked back and said in surprise: "Why are you, Sister Qiaozhu?

The person who came was Wang Qiaozhu, who had crossed paths in Tulip City before.

Wang Qiaozhu was wearing a light green tight-fitting martial arts uniform at the moment, looking youthful, and all the broken hair on his forehead was coiled up, revealing a smooth and good-looking forehead.

Wang Qiaozhu said: "My brother is going through the formalities over there, why did you come to Baishi City?"

"My master has something to do here. ”

"Oh yes," Wang Qiaozhu bent his eyes and said with a smile, "I forgot that you are from the sect, many people from the sect in Baishi City have come recently, you are all preparing to play next year's provincial qualifying competition, right?"

Li Wuxian was about to speak, and Wang Yunchong said in surprise: "Little Brother Li, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

I haven't seen him for half a year, Wang Yunchong's injuries are not only better, but the breath of the whole person seems a little unpredictable.

"Brother Wang, what a coincidence, are you two also here to prepare for the experience?" Li Wuxian was a little surprised.

In fact, the martial artists in the early and middle stages of the profession can experience through the events held within the Martial Arts Alliance, and only the general high-level martial artists will choose to go to the field to experience.

"My brother and I sold our ancestral property... I took some silver and boiled some medicine according to the previous family prescription, and now I have broken through to the fourth stage of the major, and my brother is already a person of the fifth stage. ”

When Wang Qiaozhu said this, he thought about it.

Li Wuxian nodded, it was not surprising, after all, when he first met the Wang brothers and sisters, the two of them were almost three or four levels of cultivation.

After all, the rank is only a rough measure of actual combat ability, and there is no practical reference, which is different from the cultivation realm.

Li Wuxian could detect that although these two people were both fifth-stage strength, they had not broken through to the Yijin level.

"Little Brother Li, I haven't repaid you for my kindness before, but I didn't expect to meet here today. You go through the formalities first, and we'll have a drink around here later. Wang Yunchong looked very pleased.

"Good. Li Wuxian went directly to sign an agreement on field training, which was marked with a sign that this was all a martial artist's voluntary life and death.

Although it is close to the wilderness, because of the military stationed and experienced warriors, it forms a small commercial area, in addition to teahouses, shops, food stores and so on.

The three of them found a slightly dilapidated restaurant nearby and asked for a private room.

As soon as he entered the private room, Wang Yunchong took out a brocade box from the package and said, "Brother Li... You have been very kind to us before, these are some of the medicines we boiled before, you take three doses a day, and you can strengthen your internal strength for three years in one month. ”

Li Wuxian said: "This is an ancestral prescription, it must be very precious, I can't accept this." As for the previous incident, I also received the cultivation secret of the Mighty Vajra Palm, and it is said that I have gained the greatest benefit. ”

Wang Yunchong's face was a little embarrassed.

Wang Qiaozhu looked at his brother for a while, and then at Li Wuxian for a while, and finally couldn't help but say, "Brother, the little brother is a straightforward person, you can also say it directly!"

It turns out that they have something...

Wang Yunchong's face became even more embarrassed, and said: "Alas, this matter is a long story, after we had a quarrel with the Gao family that day, although we finally got the help of my immortal brothers and got the ancestral property, but the Gao family couldn't resist the temptation of my Wang family's martial arts after all, and came to find trouble every now and then. At that time, I was sick in bed, and I had an argument with him, but then I discussed with my little sister, so I simply came to the bottom of the kettle to take a salary, directly sold the ancestral property, and then wandered the world with my little sister. ”

"I see, this Gao family is also a martial arts family, and such an act is really not done by a martial artist. Li Wuxian said.

Wang Yunchong coughed and said, "My brother and sister thought that since they left, it would be okay to find a place where no one knows and rebuild the family business, but... The Gao family doesn't know what means, they can always find the place where my little sister and I stay, an elder of the Gao family, several times chasing the secret, a few times if it weren't for the crowd, it is estimated that they robbed it is not known. ”

"So," Wang Yunchong looked at Li Wuxian Dao, and after a bit of deliberation, he said, "I think that since the little brother is an inner disciple of the big sect, can he introduce us to join the sect, no matter how powerful his family is, he may not dare to offend the eight-armed iron ape Shitong senior..."

Wang Yunchong didn't know that Li Wuxian was actually a true disciple, otherwise he wouldn't be so worried, you must know that even if he is an inner disciple, he has no right to let the master accept a newcomer, unless this newcomer studied in the branch library of the sect from the beginning.

Especially the Wang brothers and sisters, who have family martial arts, will have many inconveniences.

However, these are not problems for Li Wuxian, and he smiled when he heard this: "What else should I do, if it's just like this, when I see Master one day, I will definitely help you two introduce you and let you join the inner gate." ”

Senior Brother and Sister Wang glanced at each other, both of them were happy, and Wang Qiaozhu scolded at this time: "Brother, why are you still stupid!

"Oh yes, yes, yes—" he said as he handed over the brocade box.

Li Wuxian is also curious about the Wang family's family heirloom elixir, since he can do the other party a favor now, if he doesn't accept this gift, the other party will not feel at ease.

"In this way, then thank you Brother Wang. ”

Seeing Li Wuxian take it, the brother and sister were all determined, Wang Yunchong said: "This is the elixir handed down by my ancestors to wash the marrow and cut the tendons, no matter what kind of exercises you practice, you can take it." It's a pity that this elixir is not easy to refine, only this last dose..."

Li Wuxian II is a human being, how can he not know that this elixir is not easy to come by, and the elixir that can allow them to sell their ancestral products to refine is naturally extremely precious.

"Thank you, Brother Wang, Sister Qiaozhu. ”

At this time, Wang Qiaozhu said: "This time, we happened to team up together to go into the field, so that we could take care of each other." ”

"That's very good," Li Wuxian said with a smile.
