Chapter Forty-Eight: Discovering Extraordinary Books
It's just that Shen Wuxian's iron ruler is the best at moving, and it can be easily moved out by dealing with hidden weapons and bullets, which is one of the best treasures in the world;
Shen Wuxian can use the iron ruler to make a big move, and instantly gain a great increase in combat power, the purple sword in Li Yingqiong's hand also has a similar effect, at this time, as soon as the hand is raised, a purple light rushes towards Shen Wu's sad mouth like lightning, Shen Wuxian barely uses the iron ruler to protect, and only slightly deviates the direction of the purple light, avoiding the heart point, but the shoulder is pierced by the purple light, and a canopy of blood spurts out.
The most bizarre thing is that after the purple light penetrated Shen Wushu and shot out, the remaining momentum was still endless, and he rushed forward for seven or eight feet, and then turned back, and actually ran towards Shen Wuxian's heart again.
"What is this!" Zhao Dagui upstairs was startled again.
Several masters he had seen today, Zhang Meng, Deng Xian, Shen Wuxian, and Li Yingqiong, were all seriously challenging his scientific and worldview.
However, Shen Wuxian had long expected that this purple light would turn, and the iron ruler in his hand spewed out a large amount of black light, and protected himself again.
If Shen Wuxian was still at his peak, this purple light struck, and Shen Wushu was fifty percent sure that he would fly or hit crookedly, but he had been stabbed once before, and he didn't have time to regain his breath after the ultimate, and the color of this second ultimate, was far inferior to usual.
Shen Wushu reluctantly changed the course of Ziguang, but his body was pierced again, and he knew that he would not be lucky if he came a third time, so he ran to the side of the boat with all his might, and then jumped into the water.
The purple light turned again, and for the third time a puddle of blood pierced his back, but it failed to save his life and let him escape.
The purple light unwillingly swirled around on it, and then flew back to Li Yingqiong's side, and fell into his hand, which was the small purple sword that Li Yingqiong had held before.
Li Yingqiong urged the small sword three times in a row, and the price he paid was not small, an unnatural red tide appeared on his face, and then he pressed down with his silent luck, but secretly said in his heart that it was a pity: the iron ruler in Shen Wuxian's hand was the best at moving, and he was the most polite to small weapons such as hidden weapons and small swords, and in the end, he still relied on the weapon and escaped.
At this time, the sound of gongs also sounded on the boat of the bandits, it turned out that the big boss who had not shown up saw Shen Wuxian falling into the water and escaping, and understood that the firecrackers upstairs were there, so he knew that there was no possibility of winning this battle, so he rang the gong and sounded the gold, so that the bandits all withdrew.
At this time, the bandits tried their best to repel their opponents as if they had been pardoned, and then they ran back to their own boats, and those who did not have time to run back ran directly to the side of the boat and jumped into the river.
Zhao Dagui was condescending, picked up his pistol and shot at the bandit ships on both sides, but God knows how many warring countries he won.
"These water bandits, advance and retreat are all based on orders, strict discipline and fierce and not afraid of death, but they are much more difficult than ordinary bandits. Zhang Meng watched the bandits flee one by one, and said thoughtfully.
The battle finally came to an end, the bandits retreated, and the dart board also left the battlefield and sailed downstream.
After the war, the casualties were counted, seven people died on the side of the dart board, a shopkeeper and a man died in Dagui Trading Company, a total of nine people died, and more than a dozen were injured, which can be described as a heavy loss.
If it weren't for Zhao Dagui's sudden rise and the use of firearms to help, then even if the dart board could hold the ship and cargo in the end, the losses would have been several times heavier.
For the rest of the journey, everyone was always worried, and Zhao Dagui took advantage of the time to frantically reload the pistol, so as not to be attacked by water bandits.
Fortunately, when they left Huzhou, they were secretive, and the water bandits who really caught up seemed to be the only one on this Taihu Lotus Island, and they were quite calm along the way, until they reached the vicinity of the county seat of Demodu, and they could see the outline of the county seat, and most people's tense nerves were relaxed.
Zhao Dagui originally thought that he had arrived in an ordinary world of the Steam Age, but after experiencing this battle and talking to Zhang Meng and Li Yingqiong and other martial artists of the Fuwei Dart Bureau, he had a better understanding of the cultivation level and cultivation level of this world.
According to Zhao Dagui's understanding, those ordinary masters of the Fuwei Dart Bureau who can jump two or three meters in one jump belong to refining and refining qi according to the level of cultivation, that is, first-order martial artists, who have just cultivated their true qi, can use their true qi to increase their physical strength, and obtain a short period of powerful explosive power;
As for Zhang Meng, he is in the realm of refining qi and transforming gods, and belongs to the second-order masters, that is, he also exercises his soul on the basis of cultivating his true qi, his control of physical strength is extremely detailed and comprehensive, and his martial arts skills are extremely high, and his pure strength and true qi may only be higher than that of a martial artist who refines and refines qi, but the actual combat effectiveness is much higher;
Li Yingqiong, Shen Wuxian, Deng Xian and others, in fact, only have the level of refining qi and transforming gods, which is similar to Zhang Meng, but because the exercises they cultivate are all the world's top super exercises, and they are all cultivated to an extremely deep level, they belong to the peak of the second order, and they can crush a martial artist of Zhang Meng's level, and even a third-order grandmaster martial artist who is one level higher, and even has the strength to fight with a third-order grandmaster martial artist who is one level higher;
These people are only second-order cultivators, and they are higher than them, such as Lin Zhenwei of the Fuwei Dart Bureau, who belongs to the third-order masters of refining gods and returning to the void, that is, the first-class masters of the three-flower gathering;
The master of the Grandmaster Realm takes a step further and uses his own skills to sense the Innate Dao, and he can reach the level of the Five Qi Dynasty, which is several times stronger than the Grandmaster Realm, but ordinary people have shallow knowledge and can't figure out how high that realm is.
Generally speaking, the higher the cultivation of the exercises, the more extraordinary the combat effectiveness shown, but it is not absolute, and there are also many special magic weapons and secret techniques that can greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the monks.
Just like the purple flying sword Ziying in Li Yingqiong's hand, and the magic weapon Holy Fire Order in Shen Wuxian's hand that looks like an iron ruler (I inquired with Li Yingqiong afterwards to know the names of these magic weapons), they all have strange and unpredictable magical powers, which can greatly improve combat effectiveness, even Deng Xian also has the weird ability to devour the enemy's essence and blood to replenish himself, and ordinary grandmasters may not be able to win when they encounter opponents like the three of them.
It's just that how to make these flying swords and magic weapons and how to obtain them is not something that ordinary people can know, Zhao Dagui is very enthusiastic about this, and asked the dart masters carefully, but no one can give a satisfactory answer;
finally asked Li Yingqiong for advice with a cheeky face, but the other party only said that this was the core secret of each sect, and he had no intention of revealing any information, and Zhao Dagui could only retreat.
Zhao Dagui secretly pondered in his heart, and felt that Li Yingqiong, Shen Wuxian, Deng Xian and others, if they only talked about the level of force regardless of the secret treasures and various weird methods of the three of them, they should be similar to Jet Li's version of Huang Feihong, such as the Lion King Battle, etc., from then on, it can also be speculated to what level the level of ordinary grandmaster martial artists will be.
As for Zhang Meng and the other dart masters, at most, they are a little stronger than ordinary people, but they are also the level of ordinary national arts masters, if there is no Li Yingqiong and others as references, it is enough to arouse Zhao Dagui's interest, but with the first three people, their value in Zhao Dagui's eyes has decreased a lot.
Thinking that the "blood nerve" in his arms should be Deng Xian's cultivation method, and he can also reach Deng Xian's level by practicing according to the book, Zhao Dagui's heart became very hot for a while.
Without further ado, and said that everyone drove the boat to the wharf outside the east gate of the county seat of Demodu, Zhao Dagui sent someone to find the shopkeeper Chen, asked Lang Zhong to come over to rescue the injured people, and found some porters to unload the raw silk on the ship and transport it back to the warehouse of his Zhao family's compound.
The ship was full of scorched marks, and the people on it were all embarrassed, which surprised the people near the docks, and came to inquire about what had happened, not to mention it.
The Zhao family compound rented by Zhao Dagui is on the west side of the big east gate, and it is not difficult to move the raw silk in, but the raw silk bought this time is as many as 15600 bags, the price is amazing, and the quantity is also large, so people need to pay attention to it.
On this day, there are many things to do, first of all, it is transported into the Zhao family's compound, and it must be properly stored, the purchase price of this batch of raw silk is 2.67 million yuan, and the selling price can reach an astonishing 600,000 yuan, no one dares to be careless.
Zhao Dagui after a water bandit attack, did not dare to relax his vigilance, and the Fuwei Dart Bureau discussed, and then sent a number of dart masters, the original group of dart masters who had been to Huzhou should not go home for the time being, stay in the Zhao family compound to help take care of the home, at least before this batch of raw silk is sold, we must ensure the safety of the goods.
Fuwei Dart Bureau does dart business, in addition to going to the field to dart, helping local large families to take care of the home, is also one of the important sources of income, naturally willing to take this job, so although it has to pay a little more, for the wealthy Zhao Da Lao, it is just a drizzle.
Secondly, the shopkeeper Xie Da and another guy who died this time were all killed in the line of duty, and Zhao Dagui was asked to give him a pension, so Zhao Dagui gave a pension several times more than usual, and he also gave a generous pension to the dart masters of the Fuwei Dart Bureau who died in the battle.
According to the rules of the industry, the Fuwei Dart Bureau took this job, and how many people were killed and injured in the middle had to be carried by themselves, and for the dart masters who died in the battle, there were also bereavement benefits within the dart game, but Zhao Dagui felt that this matter was caused by himself after all, so he insisted on giving him a pension, which made his feelings in the hearts of Lin Zhenwei and other dart masters improve a lot.
In short, the day passed in a chaotic situation.
In the evening, Zhao Dagui returned to his room, plugged the door from the inside, prevented anyone from entering, and then took out a few items seized from Deng Xian's hands and looked at them carefully.
The pills and unknown needles in the gourd, I looked at them again and again for a long time, but I couldn't see any fame, so I could only put them in one place.
It's that book, specifically compared with the dictionary about seal characters, and finally recognized the three words on the cover, it turned out to be called "blood nerve", this book suspected of martial arts cheats is not commonly used paper, but a kind of cortical thing.
"Was parchment also popular in the Qing Dynasty?" Zhao Dagui was a little puzzled, but he was a little relieved when he thought that the parchment process was not complicated, and many nomads had not mastered the production technology of paper, and there were many people who used parchment, so he was a little relieved and did not delve into it.
This book is all written in ancient seal style, Zhao Dagui has been in modern times for a long time, and he can recognize a few commonly used words.
However, the Qing Dynasty had a fairly complete dictionary of seal characters and traditional characters, and as long as all seal characters were translated into the corresponding Chinese characters, it should not be difficult to understand this "blood nerve".
Zhao Dagui's heart was a little hot, and he looked through the blood nerves from beginning to end, and something unexpected happened, but a light curtain appeared from the main god library that did not move, and there was such a sentence written on it:
"Found an extraordinary book, is it included in the library?"
Zhao Dagui was shocked in his heart, and subconsciously chose "yes", and then he felt that the world was spinning for a while, and he was forced into a completely unfamiliar world.
