Chapter 3 The second chance
Most of the books in the gang's library are rare or unique, covering a wide range of areas.
Logically speaking, a black force like the Jinyang Gang shouldn't have this kind of building, but that's the strange thing. No one would have thought that the Jinyang Gang, which controls many businesses in Xuanxin Mansion, would have such a library in the gang, and it is also highly sought after by scholars in the prefecture. It is really strange.
As far as Lu Shi knew, few people entered this library except for the cleaning servants, so Lu Shi didn't know the purpose of building this library here.
Hearing that Zhou Qing said that a big shot was coming, he thought that it might be someone with fame and status in the state capital. Perhaps this was the original intention of building the library here.
But this has nothing to do with Lu Shi, he just needs to do his own thing now.
The Martial Arts Hall is located deep inside the gang's headquarters. It is an important hall of the Jinyang Gang and is responsible for teaching martial arts to the entire gang. Rumor has it that the leader of the hall is a martial artist who has developed Zhenqi, which shows the importance of the Martial Arts Hall. sex.
This was still too far away for Lu Shi. As a handyman, he had basically no restrictions on his travels within the gang except for some important areas.
Of course, due to status reasons, the handymen did not dare to wander around in the gang, but the martial arts hall was not included in this category.
Lu Shi came outside the martial arts hall and looked at the half-opened door of the red door. He did not step forward rashly, but just watched on the spot with a look of fascination.
People came and went from time to time outside the martial arts hall. In the eyes of others, Lu Shi looked like this and just thought he was a handyman who aspired to martial arts. There were many such people in the entire Jinyang Gang, and there were no handymen in the past. Looking here from a distance, his expression was basically the same as what Lu Shi was showing at this time.
After standing there for about half a moment, Lu Shi left. He had no intention of entering the martial arts hall now. Instead, he returned to the library and started his work.
As usual, I cleaned up and down the library and was busy until the evening, and then it was time to go back. Unlike other handymen, because he has a place to live in the city, he does not need to squeeze into Datong Shop like other handymen. In this way, he can have his own time after being on duty.
After returning home, Lu Shi did not rest or take time off immediately, but was preparing for the next opportunity.
"Thirty-five taels of silver is enough for daily expenses, but if you want to practice martial arts, thirty-five taels is obviously not enough, so you still need to prepare more money."
Thinking like this, Lu Shi took out another twenty taels from the Ruyi Dao Fruit as a backup.
"If you are practicing martial arts, you must also prepare the medicine needed for the medicinal bath in the early stage. You can't reveal too much money to the outside world. Then the next opportunity will be to include the medicine needed for the medicinal bath."
Thinking like this, Lu Shi thought again. The halo in his mind flashed slightly, and the contents inside turned from virtual to solid. Then two medicine bottles appeared in his hands, including a total of four tiger bones and tendons. pill.
"In order to prepare for martial arts practice, this kind of elixir is naturally indispensable. Four pills are used for feedback, which is enough for a period of time. In this way, for the second chance feedback, it is enough to have these things as a base, and the remaining All I have to do is get the martial arts secrets, and then I can see if the opportunity feedback can be as I wish."
It's not that he doesn't want to release more elixirs to use as opportunities, but Lu Shi is very aware of the situation he is in at this time. It is really not appropriate to release too many tiger bone Yijin Pills worth ten taels of silver. Any information leaked may be harmful to the public. Destined people pose a great threat.
Lu Shifei is not a holy mother, he just wants the water to flow slowly.
Instead of looking for someone else then, it would be better to catch a sheep and slowly gather it now, at least it would be a familiar journey.
After sorting these things, Lu Shi did not do anything else and went to sleep directly after packing them up.
The next day, Lu Shi came to the gang and spent the whole morning busy. It was lunch time and he had time to take a rest.
Taking advantage of this time, Lu Shi went to the medicine hall and bought medicinal bath drugs used to strengthen the body during martial arts training.
It's really not cheap. A single dose of the medicine costs one or two silver dollars, which is enough for a month's wages of a handyman. As Zhou Qing said, without a rich net worth, practicing martial arts is just a dream.
After doing this, he ran directly to the martial arts hall just like yesterday. He also didn't enter the door, he just stood and watched from a distance, giving people a figure who was looking forward to practicing martial arts, and then left after a while.
In this way, his actions had some impact in the eyes of others.
For example, now, many people among the handymen knew that Lu Shisheng wanted to practice martial arts. Some people laughed at him, some kept silent, but most of them were still paying close attention to him secretly.
As the lowest level of the Jinyang Gang, if the handymen want to move up, unless they have extraordinary abilities, their lives will basically be over. As Lu Shi, who had some connections among the handymen, he was somewhat the envy of many handymen.
When he learned that Lu Shi wanted to practice martial arts and break away from his job as a handyman, he was more envious, but no one would express his envy.
"A bunch of bastards who just do things honestly if they don't have the ability."
As the manager, Zhou Qing took everyone's reactions into consideration, but he was sarcastic without mercy.
In his opinion, Lu Shi's actions were inevitable. After all, his father was once a small leader in the gang and had some ability. He might have left something behind for Lu Shi.
Compared with other handymen, Lu Shi naturally has the advantage of practicing martial arts.
If he was tempted by the legacy left by Lu Shi's father, that was inevitable, but if he was asked to do something at this time, he would not be so short-sighted.
Instead of trying so hard and possibly getting nothing in the end, it would be better to wait for Lu Shi to suffer a bloody blow while practicing martial arts. If he finally wants to gain a foothold in the gang, he will naturally turn to him. By then, if he comes forward again, he will definitely save energy.
Zhou Qing's plan was very good, but it was destined to be in vain.
After two days of preparation, Lu Shi had everything ready, and finally started his attempt on the third day.
On the third day, as usual, Lu Shi, a handyman, got up early, rushed to the gang, and started his arrangements.
Chance still chose to place it in the library, because the environment here is the most familiar and the safest. Except for them, the handymen responsible for cleaning, few people come in and out on weekdays.
This time, he placed the package on the first floor of the library, in a very hidden corner, inconspicuously.
Twenty taels of silver, four Tiger Bone Yijin Pills, two medicated baths, plus a manual of martial arts, were all the treasures of this opportunity.
The martial arts manuscript was written by Lu Shi. It was originally obtained by Lu Shi from the Martial Arts Hall. He was not the one who took it out of the Martial Arts Hall. He could not take that thing out, and the Martial Arts Hall would not sell martial arts secrets to the outside world.
So the way he brought it out was very simple, memorizing it by rote and then dictating it later.
I don't know if it is because of time travel, but Lu Shi's memory is much stronger than in his previous life. He can't forget everything he said, but he can easily memorize this kind of martial arts with not many words.
A few thousand words are all about this martial arts. In Lu Shi's opinion, it is not too advanced. Its main function is to torture the body and increase the strength. There are only a dozen moves in the martial arts. , not clever.
The martial arts hall naturally has restrictions on the martial arts it sells. First of all, it is not allowed to be passed on to outsiders. This is quite normal. As a gang, they have strict supervision over their own martial arts. If anyone dares to spread the word, the consequences will be three cuts and six holes, leaving no intact body.
In addition, if the martial arts skills are sold to the public, they can pay some money to find martial artists to practice in the martial arts hall. However, the martial arts hall does not care about the handymen, and Lu Shi did not spend money to find anyone specifically, so In the end, he could only buy martial arts to study on his own.
From this point of view, it is not difficult to see the low status of handymen.
And it just so happened that this was what Lu Shi needed most.
As for martial arts Gaiden?
Lu Shi wasn't too worried. As long as he didn't leave any clues, the chance of sending it out had nothing to do with him. And he has clearly written the consequences in the manuscript. If the destined person is exposed due to his own reasons, it has nothing to do with him.
After doing all this, all Lu Shi had left was to wait, and he had placed the clues where the two people could easily notice them last time. Based on the situation of the two people after their last chance, they should be there. Just notice it in a short time.
