Fourth, the Bamboo Branch Gang, the Flower Drum Hall, and the Three Mountains School

Lu Haozhi really had some calculations, and he said unhurriedly: "Although we have to rush in Tianma Mountain, we have had a lot of business trips in the past, and business has never been bad. () In addition, the terrain is dangerous, and it is difficult for the government to encircle and suppress it, but it is not a long-term plan after all. I tried to persuade your master to join a big gang, but he refused to listen. ”

When Chen Qi heard Lu Haozhi's words, he lifted his spirits.

Around Tianma Mountain, there are three big gangs, namely the Bamboo Branch Gang, the Flower Drum Hall, and the Three Mountains Faction. The Sanshan faction is a Jianghu sect, inherited from master and apprentice, not to mention. The Bamboo Branch Gang and the Flower Drum Hall have fought a few times because of the competition for territory. Tianma Mountain Dazhai is located between the three families, and there is a bit of a tendency to meet the source left and right, and the three gangs have no intention of plotting this place, so they seem to be quite free.

Lu Haozhi is worthy of the name of Shuangyin Xiucai, although he does not have the eloquence of the sky, but he also has a three-inch tongue, and only a few words will clearly analyze the situation of Tianma Mountain.

"Our Tianma Mountain is between the three families, if these three families check and balance each other, it doesn't matter, they don't have time to disturb my Tianma Mountain, and they have to make a good connection. However, Luo Feng, the personal disciple of the leader of the Bamboo Branch Gang, recently left without knowing what luck, and actually got in touch with the female apprentice of the Great Elder of the Three Mountains Sect, Feng Linzi, and the two families were about to marry Qin and Jin. If these two families are united, Huagutang will be unlucky in the near future, and they will be unlucky. Only by taking refuge in the Bamboo Branch Gang now and becoming a member of the Bamboo Branch Gang one step ahead can we gain the trust of the two families in the next general trend, not only will we not be in danger of extinction, but we can also take advantage of the situation to develop and grow. ”

Originally, Chen Qi still felt that he was quite happy to be a thief in Tianma Mountain, but when he heard the second master say it carefully, he suddenly felt a little prepared for danger in peace. It's just that he still asked a little curiously: "Second village master, what's the use of you telling me these words? ”

Lu Hao slapped his thigh, and even called the seventh brother really a smart person. laughed in his heart, secretly glad that he had a plan and put Chen Qi into a trap. Lu Hao made a heartfelt appearance and said to Chen Qi: "The master of the village is at ease in Tianma Mountain, how can he be willing to go to the low and small for others? This matter must be analyzed by someone to make the master of the village come to his senses." If I go and say it, I'm afraid that he will suspect that I have some tricks, and only Chen Qi, you, who are apprentices, can I gain his trust. This is a plan that has to do with whether our Tianma Mountain can survive, so I found an excuse to bring you out alone to discuss. ”

Chen Qi just thought slightly, then slandered in his stomach, and said secretly: "Lu Haozhi, are you really a demented child who has never read a book and has no brains? The Bamboo Branch Gang and the Sanshan Faction fought many times in the early years, and it is not that there are no grudges, just with two young people, how can we resolve these old hatreds? Although it is not impossible for the two families to unite, it is not impossible, but it may not be so easy. He asked me to talk to the owner of the Black Whirlwind Village, but I was afraid that if one of them was not good, I would be used as a spy with ulterior motives by the owner of the village, or even suspect that I was bought by someone, and cut off my head with a knife. The identity of this apprentice is not very easy to use, and it cannot be used so indiscriminately. ”

Chen Qi suspected Lu Haozhi's intentions, so he pretended to shirk it, but he refused. Lu Haozhi saw that Chen Qi refused to take the bait, and he was impatient when he knew about it, so he had another plan. After persuading for a while, he smiled and said: "Since you dare not persuade the master of the village, Lao Qi, we can think about it in the long run." I know you practice hard knife skills, but there is no good knife that fits your hands, the second brother walked the rivers and lakes back then, and once inadvertently got a Burmese knife made of refined steel, when not in use, it can be a ball, and when the enemy is only shaken, it is a good steel knife, especially very sharp, ordinary blades can be cut with one blow. I have always used palm techniques to fight the enemy, and it is useless to keep this Burmese knife, so I will give it to you. ”

Lu Haozhi wanted to instigate Chen Qi to make a suggestion to the black whirlwind of the master of Dazhai, so he deliberately wooed him instead. As long as he can get closer to Chen Qi, even if Chen Qi's martial arts are getting better, he must give him some affection. Although Chen Qi is smart, he is still a teenager after all, how can he guess the twists and turns in Lu Haozhi's stomach?

He's just a thought, if you don't take it if you have benefits, that's a bastard. At that moment, he took the Burmese knife with a smile, and shook it in the palm of his hand, and the steel knife was suddenly shaken straight.

Chen Qi waved his hand casually, and the Burmese knife overflowed with knife energy, and he cut off a small tree beside him.

Chen Qi's knife shot, he just felt quite smooth, and secretly thought: "It seems that these days I have practiced the Taishang Dragon Technique, and even the sword technique has entered the realm, and the attack is much faster and faster than before." Lu Haozhi was on the side, but he was shocked. He is an old man, just now Chen Qi slashed casually, and there was a slight flow of qi on the knife body, which was a sign of practicing true qi. Chen Qi didn't know that he had no intention of stabbing and leaked the bottom of the matter, but he shook Lu Haozhi's frightened heart slightly.

Iron Bone Gong must be cultivated to more than the sixth level before it can give birth to true qi, and this external kung fu is much worse than the inner kung fu of meditating and refining qi in cultivating true qi. Lu Haozhi didn't know that Chen Qi had an adventure, but he had already cultivated the Iron Bone Gong to such a realm, how could he not be afraid?

The black whirlwind, the master of Tianma Mountain, when he came out of the school, the iron bone skill was only the cultivation of the fifth layer, and he still practiced martial arts in the past few years, and only then did he break through the sixth layer a few years ago and practice a true qi. Chen Qi also cultivated like this, and Lu Haozhi secretly thought: "It's a shame that I didn't make a rash move just now, otherwise Chen Qi's martial arts are already like the master of the big village, wouldn't he kill me if he changed hands?"

Lu Hao's heart was so tumultuous that he was embarrassed for a while, and he looked at Chen Qi a few times, only to feel that this kid was as deep as he was already comparable to himself, and he was not an easy character to deal with.

Chen Qi didn't know that the second master had already changed his perception of himself, and after playing a few knife flowers, he slapped the Burmese knife on his waist, and suddenly turned into a belt around his waist.

He hugged his wrist and thanked Lu Haozhi, a Shuangyin Xiucai: "Thanks to the second master's love for such kindness, this knife is really good, I don't know how to repay the second master." ”

Lu Haozhi first laughed, and then said pretendedly: "If you want to call the second brother, what is the second master, say the next life." ”

Chen Qi secretly slandered: "When did we have such rules in Tianma Mountain? It turns out that on the mountain, you are just treating a few other small village owners as cattle and horses, how can you let us call us brothers? This pair of Yin Xiucai is cunning, and suddenly became attentive to me, I am afraid that it is not a good sign, I have to guard against him. ”

No matter how good Lu Haozhi is to him, Chen Qi will not be grateful to Dade and be grateful, after all, he is also very familiar with this second master, and knows that he is ruthless and has never had any good intentions. This time, he first instigated him to go to the master of the village to make a speech, and then presented the treasure knife, how did it seem to be a conspiracy, Chen Qi thought for a long time, and suddenly thought: "Isn't it that I showed some horses?"

Chen Qi thought about it for a while, and was a little more vigilant, but he pushed the boat along the water, the second brother, the second brother was very familiar, as if he didn't know what Lu Haozhi had calculated.

Chen Qi has been in the thieves' den for many years, has seen many characters, and knows that pretending to be stupid is far more clever than pretending, and it is more beneficial to his own family.

Although Lu Haozhi couldn't figure out Chen Qi's thoughts, he saw that Chen Qi was willing to accept his overtures, so he smiled and said a lot of affectionate language. The two chatted in the middle of the night, and it seemed that the relationship was suddenly much closer, until they were sleepy, and they took a nap slightly. They are all used to being bandits, they don't trust others at all, and even if they sleep, they keep half their eyes open, and they don't care about keeping vigil.

Chen Qi pretended to fall asleep, secretly running the Taishang Transformation Dragon Technique, and after two or three hours, the sky was bright, and he only felt that the true qi in the dantian had grown a little stronger.

The Taishang Dragon Recipe is not many short of a few hundred words, and the semantics are very profound, and Chen Qi can't understand them all, but he knows that after a martial artist has cultivated a true qi, he will warm it up and strengthen it, and begin to open up the acupoints around his body. Every time the impact opens a trick point, there is an additional place for the true qi to be stored, and when competing with others, there is no need to raise the luck of the qi from the dantian, and the shot is much faster.

The master of the Black Whirlwind Village taught him the Iron Bone Skill, but he pointed out all the three hundred and sixty-five tricks in his body, Chen Qi secretly thought, and said in his heart: "The first thing that a person who practices martial arts should open is the trick points on his arm, and when he shoots, he is easy to have a sharp force, and I will try to open these tricks first." ”

Chen Qizheng was thinking to himself, and Lu Haozhi also got up. This Shuangyin Xiucai usually gets up early and has to practice a trip to martial arts, the so-called fist does not leave the hand, and the martial arts of being a thief are fundamental, and if the martial arts are wasted, it is a big stride on the road to find death. Lu Haozhi was born in the Yinshan faction, and he was originally much more clever than the martial arts passed on by the Iron Bone Sect, but his qualifications were not good, and he stayed in the Yinshan faction for many years, and he didn't learn any real kung fu, so he had to pass on a set of seven-step Yin Feng palms, which have always been regarded as secret skills, and they are not revealed.

At this time, in order to show favor to Chen Qi, Lu Haozhi did not hide it, and after practicing the palm technique at home, he also revealed that he wanted to teach this set of palm techniques. If he hadn't gotten the three pages of the golden book, Chen Qi would of course be overjoyed, but he was afraid that he would pounce on it right now, and everyone would have a master, and he would come obediently. But at this time, he didn't look down on this set of palm techniques, not to mention that the seven-step Yin Feng Palm was quite difficult to practice, and it would take a lot of effort, Chen Qi thought to himself that with this kung fu, it would be more cost-effective to practice the mantra on the three pages of the golden book.

Seeing that Chen Qi didn't mean to seek advice, Lu Haozhi took a little more thought, and couldn't help thinking: "Could it be that I underestimated the rough embryo of the black whirlwind? In addition to the iron bone skill, he also has other wonderful martial arts, so why Chen Qi can't look down on my seven-step Yin Wind Palm?"

The two of them had their own thoughts, and after breakfast, Lu Haozhi had to hurry. Chen Qi thought of what Lu Haozhi said just now, and he didn't come out this time to explore any deal, so he was a little suspicious, but after asking a few words, Lu Haozhi only said that there were other arrangements, and Chen Qi was helpless.

Lu Haozhi took Chen Qi and walked for three days, and then he arrived at Poyang Mansion.

Chen Qi didn't know that Lu Haozhi told him that coming out to find out the news was just an excuse, but why did he have to go so far. T
