Chapter 467: Upheaval (2) Thanks to the book friend's "dazed personality" for the reward!
The noisy night sky begins to calm down, but as the day sets in, everything is noisy again.
Jiang Yuan stayed in Lin Muqing's room all night and stayed by her bedside all night.
It's not that he doesn't want to sleep, it's that this night is full of dangers, and if there is a demon in the Xu Mansion, it will be dangerous.
He had to be sober and vigilant at all times.
Now in this world, his body with strong power cannot enter, but only his consciousness is cast, so he is suppressed by the rules of magic weapons.
This made Jiang Yuan seem to return to the time when he was still in Taiping Town for a while, and he was always full of a sense of crisis.
Lin Muqing was under the protection of Jiang Yuan, and he slept in bed for a while in the second half of the night.
When she woke up and saw her husband next to the bed, her heart couldn't help but be full of complicated.
In the past, due to various reasons, the relationship between her and her husband has been extremely stiff, and it is not too much to say that they are like enemies.
But tonight, she let her husband into her room for the first time, and in his company, she gradually stopped being afraid and was able to fall asleep, which made Lin Muqing wonder about herself.
The cowardly and incompetent husband in the past could never bring her a sense of security, and she had to become a strong woman to run the family.
But now, she has found this feeling in her husband, she doesn't know what happened to her, or if he has really started to change.
Lin Muqing hurriedly got dressed, and asked Jiang Yuan, who was sitting on a chair on the side of the bed:
"You...... Get some sleep. ”
Jiang Yuan shook his head, got up from his chair and walked outside:
"I still have something to do. ”
Lin Muqingdai's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she couldn't help but say coldly:
"You don't want to sleep at home, do you want to go to sleep in the Qinglou again?"
After saying this, Lin Muqing couldn't help but regret it a little.
I shouldn't be so strong, especially to my husband, although he has a poor character and cowardice, but after all, he guarded himself all night.
Jiang Yuan was not angry, after all, Lin Muqingkong had the identity of a wife, but for himself there was no difference from a stranger.
What is there to be angry about for the sake of a stranger?
So he laughed and said:
"Didn't you say that you don't care about each other?"
Lin Muqing was silent for a while, and finally said:
"I don't know what's going on outside, but it must be messy. Don't be impulsive and be careful. ”
Jiang Yuan didn't say a word, opened the door and walked out of the house.
He hid the short knife close to his body, and then walked towards the outside of Xu's mansion.
Pedestrians outside Xu's Mansion looked frightened, asking each other from time to time what happened last night.
It seems that many people are ignorant of what happened last night, and most of them have chosen to hide in the house.
When Jiang Yuan walked on the street, he saw a lot of government officials, and in addition, there were many corpses.
The bodies lay on the ground, and after being examined, they waited for their relatives to come and claim them.
Jiang glanced at it from a distance, and he could tell that these people had died at the hands of a martial artist, and judging from the fatal scars, they were very similar to Yan Zhennan's martial arts.
Most of the dead were young men, and there were blades scattered around them.
In this case, it is not difficult to guess that last night the Gale Gang must have wanted to regain the lost face, so as to attack and kill Yan Zhennan, and the two sides had a fight.
It's just that I don't know what the result is, at least Jiang Yuan didn't see Yan Zhennan's body.
Jiang Yuan walked for a while, but saw a lot of strange corpses on another street.
Most of the dead were young women, their bodies so white that they didn't have a trace of blood, as if they had been drained of blood.
Jiang Yuan also saw that there were two blood holes in the major arteries of their necks, neat and regular, which seemed to be the cause of death of these women.
Because of the strangeness of the corpses, there was an argument between the people who were examining them, and the officials shouted to drive away the onlookers.
Jiang Yuan was full of surprise at these corpses, and he didn't know if it was some unique killing method or a demon.
And if it's a demon, then what kind of demon is it?
In movies from another time and space, there are zombies and vampires who kill people like this.
But in reality, zombies eat people directly, and vampire Jiang Yuan has never seen it.
Jiang Yuan shook his head and continued to walk down the street.
However, when they came to the vicinity of the city gate, they saw a conflict between the officials and the people.
Many carriages were blocked at the city gates, but the gates were not opened.
"Why aren't we allowed to go out of the city?" someone asked in a loud voice at the official, "Can you afford to delay my business?"
But the official was unmoved, and replied coldly:
"This is an order from the magistrate! Before the murderer who killed last night is captured, no one in the city is allowed to leave the city without a document from the magistrate! If you want to leave the city, go to the magistrate to open an approval document yourself!"
The more the people and the officials quarreled, the more fierce Jiang Yuan thought for a while, and then left here.
This time, he walked towards the inn, wanting to see if Yan Zhennan was still in the city, or if he was still alive.
When he came to the inn, Jiang Yuan didn't expect Yan Zhennan to still be safe and sound in the guest room.
Yan Zhennan sat on the chair, expressionless, as if nothing had happened.
But Jiang Yuan was still keenly aware that the blood and killing intent on his body was a little stronger than yesterday, and it seemed that he had really killed someone last night.
And when he came to the guest room, in addition to Jiang Yuan, there was also a young man.
When the banquet was dispersed yesterday, Yan Zhennan said that if you want to learn from a teacher, you will come to the inn again this morning.
At this time, only Jiang Yuan and another young man arrived, and it seemed that most of the people yesterday were just hot-blooded, and when the blood cooled down after a night, they also dispelled this idea.
After all, abandoning one's family and children to follow the master, or settling a grudge with the Gale Gang for this, not everyone with a stable life can make up their minds.
Yan Zhennan's fierce eyes glanced at the two of them, and said in a deep voice:
"After the apprenticeship ceremony, you are my apprentice!"
Another young man, about eighteen or nineteen years old, with clear eyebrows and ordinary clothes, did not hesitate to bow to his teacher.
From his mouth, Jiang Yuan also learned that his name was Wu Ping, because his father was hacked to death by the Gale Gang, so he wanted to learn art to avenge his father.
In normal times, such a vengeful disciple Yan Zhennan may not accept it.
But last night there was a fierce fight with the Gale Gang, and this morning he couldn't get out of the city due to the blockade of the city gate, so Yan Zhennan made an exception to take Wuping.
When it was Jiang Yuan's turn to salute, Yan Zhennan couldn't help but ask again:
"Xu Gongzi, if you worship under my door, you will become an enemy with the Gale Gang. You have a well-off family, so there's no need to wade into this troubled water. Think about it. ”
Jiang Yuan said with a smile:
"It is difficult to find a good teacher, and waiting for a good teacher is the luck of my Xu Shaohua Sansheng. ”
After finishing speaking, Jiang Yuan did not hesitate to bow to his teacher.
After drinking the apprentice tea, Yan Zhennan got up from the chair and said:
"Yes, since you two have come under my door today, I will protect you in the future. But you must also respect the orders of the teacher and abide by the rules of the door. Otherwise, I will personally abolish your martial arts and expel you from the sect!"
Jiang Yuan and Wu Ping said yes in unison.
Then Yan Zhennan said:
"From now on, Shaohua will be the senior brother! If I am not there, Wuping, you have to listen to the words of the senior brother!"
The young man named Wu Ping was bent on revenge, but he had no objection to this, and he immediately bowed to Jiang Yuan:
"Big brother!"
Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded.
Then I only heard Yan Zhennan continue:
"I am strict in family boxing, what we pay attention to is the combination of long fists and short fights, strong and fierce combos, movement to control static, to overcome softness with rigidity, and to strike first! I will fight first, and you will understand it yourself. Then I'll teach you the mind and the basics!"
After finishing speaking, Yan Zhennan punched the Yan family in the guest room.
Yan Jiaquan is known for its fierceness, and Yan Zhennan is fierce and terrifying.
After the fight, Yan Zhennan tested the comprehension of the two of them.
Wu Ping couldn't memorize a few moves at all, relying on memory to imitate Yan Zhennancai's moves, although it looked extremely hard, but it was as funny as dancing.
This made Yan Zhennan can't help but shake his head slightly, but after all, Wu Ping is a beginner without any foundation, and Yan Zhennan is also mentally prepared.
And Jiang Yuan stepped forward and beat the Yan family fist smoothly, except that under his deliberate suppression, it seemed that the momentum and strength of the Yan family fist did not have Yan Zhennan's feet, and there was not much deviation in the movements.
This made Yan Zhennan stunned for a moment, he was not mentally prepared for the fact that Jiang Yuan could beat the Yan family fist intact after watching it once.
After coming back to his senses, Yan Zhennan's eyes became hotter and hotter, and he casually taught the mental method to Wu Ping and let him practice on his own. Then Yan Zhennan began to teach Jiang Yuan carefully, explaining to him in detail the essence of Yan Jiaquan and the cultivation steps of the mental method.
After just an hour of explanation, Yan Zhennan became more and more shocked.
If he weren't sure that Jiang Yuan would never have had the opportunity to come into contact with Yan Jiaquan before, otherwise he would almost think that Jiang Yuan was a veteran who had practiced Yan Jiaquan for more than ten years.
Yan Zhennan's explanation often only needs to be repeated, and Jiang Yuan can remember the comprehension and draw inferences from one another.
And even when practicing, Jiang Yuan was able to perform smoothly, as if he was an experienced master, without the sluggishness and sluggishness of a novice.
The more Yan Zhennan looked at it, the more frightened he became, this was no longer an ordinary genius, but simply a demon.
He couldn't help but have a hunch that Yan Jiaquan might really be able to carry forward in the hands of this apprentice.
However, this also made Yan Zhennan secretly vigilant in his heart, some real killing moves were hidden by himself, and he didn't dare to teach Jiang Yuan easily.
After all, Yan Zhennan didn't know anything about this apprentice who had just apprenticed, and he didn't even know what his character was.
Yan Zhennan has seen a lot of things about the disciples of the church starving to death of the master, and even the masters and apprentices turning against each other.
After a short period of practice, in terms of moves, Jiang Yuan is completely aware of it, as for the internal strength and mental method, Jiang Yuan can't look down on Yan Zhennan's teaching at all, he himself has a better one. It's just that in order not to attract attention, he still pretended to learn for a while.
And after Yan Zhennan had a complex psychology of both liking and wary of Jiang Yuan, he paid more attention to his other disciple, Wu Ping.
Wu Ping is also a disciple with excellent roots, talent and understanding, if only Wu Ping appears as a single disciple, Yan Zhennan will also be very satisfied.
But with the birth of Jiang Yuan's demon, it was too dazzling, so that Yan Zhennan was not interested in teaching Wu Ping, but felt that Wu Ping was dull.
The lecture in the guest room was carried out for less than two hours, but at this time, an official suddenly came to the door.
The two officials who came to the door were also polite, not like arresters, but only listened to them speak:
"May I ask you, but Master Yan Zhennan? The magistrate of the county is invited, and I also ask Master Yan to go to the yamen. ”
