Chapter 36: Hall Master
Naturally, Chen Yuan would not tell the truth and told the carefully crafted story, which made Luo Zhenwu and everyone marvel.
Whether they believe it or not is unknown.
At least on the surface, no one questioned it.
After Chen Yuan finished speaking, Luo Zhenwu expressed concern for a few more words before asking:
"Er Niu, I'm very relieved that you can return safely, but there is one thing I have to ask, where did your martial arts come from?"
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed and they stared at Chen Yuan closely.
After talking for a long time, I finally got to the point.
Chen Yuan looked solemn, raised his hands to the sky and saluted with fists, and said:
"My martial arts are all taught by my master."
Luo Zhenwu was startled:
"Your master? Li Yong?"
Chen Yuan nodded, but Luo Zhenwu became even more confused:
"As far as I know, Li Yong does have a six-yang technique passed down from his family, but it is only a second-rate technique. He himself has not even touched the threshold of inner strength. How could he teach you such a profound martial arts?"
After Wei Wuding returned with his convoy, Luo Zhenwu sent the Law Enforcement Hall to conduct a detailed investigation of Chen Yuan. He had a clear understanding of his experience in Leping County and also knew a lot about Li Yong.
Chen Yuan sighed and said:
"Now that things have happened, I won't hide it anymore. The Six Yang Kung Fu passed down from my master's family is not a second-rate technique, but a first-class technique!"
Luo Zhenwu's expression changed drastically:
"What did you say? First-rate technique!"
The head of the law enforcement hall exclaimed:
"Impossible! Looking at the entire Qi country, first-class skills are extremely precious. They are treasures that can stir up the world of a state. Li Yong is just a poor man from another state. If he possesses first-class skills, how can he not even have internal energy? Can’t break through!”
Chen Yuan shouted:
"Shut up! Don't insult my master!"
"You are obviously talking nonsense..."
"alright!"
Luo Zhenwu raised his hand to stop the leader of the law enforcement hall, and said to Chen Yuan:
"Er Niu, Hall Master Liu just made a slip of the tongue, and did not mean to insult Manager Li. First-class martial arts are the most precious treasures in the martial arts. It is normal for him to lose his mind when he heard these words."
"As we all know, there are only two first-rate Kung Fu in the world of Yuzhou. One is the secret technique of my Fuhu Clan, "Dragon Tiger Strength", and the other is the "Hua Whale Art" of the Sanjiang Clan. It's hard for me to believe that, It’s a bit shocking that Yuzhou actually has a third-class martial arts technique, which is a family tradition passed down by a branch administrator.”
Chen Yuan smiled bitterly and said:
"I don't know the inside story. After my master accepted me as his disciple, he taught me the Six Yang Kung Fu and told me not to show it in front of others to avoid being jealous. But when the demon tiger attacked the convoy, I couldn't bear to see the gang members When my brother was in trouble, he ignored his master's orders and took action to fight the tiger, but he was unable to catch the tiger. Thanks to the immortal's rescue, he saved his life. "
His tone was very sincere, but Luo Zhenwu still had doubts on his face. Others also showed doubts. Wei Wuding, who was sitting at the back, kept shaking his head.
Chen Yuan gritted his teeth, took out a book from his arms, handed it to Luo Zhenwu, and said:
"Gang leader, this is the Six Yang Kung that Master passed down to me. I am willing to dedicate it to the gang!"
"What did you say?"
Luo Zhenwu was shocked and stared at the thin book with "Six Yang Gong" written on the cover. His face showed disbelief.
"I am willing to dedicate this book of Six Yang Gong to the gang!"
Chen Yuan repeated it, and Luo Zhenwu grabbed the book and opened it to read.
Others stared at him, and there was a dead silence in the living room, and you could hear a pin drop.
I don't know how long it took before Luo Zhenwu closed the thin book in his hand, took a long breath and said:
"This Six Yang Kung Fu is really a first-class technique!"
As soon as the words fell, the living room exploded instantly.
"First-rate skills! This, this, this..."
"Haha, let's see how the Sanjiang Gang fights with us!"
"Then Li Yong actually hid it so deeply. He really can't be judged by his appearance..."
Luo Zhenwu put the Six Yang Gong in his arms, raised his hand and pressed it weakly. After everyone stopped talking, he looked at Chen Yuan and said with a smile:
"Er Niu, you first saved the convoy, and then performed your first-class martial arts and made great achievements. The position of leader of the district guard is really not worthy of you. Let's do this, I will give you the position of deputy leader of the Hundred Soldiers Hall. You how about?"
When Hou Yan and the two deputy hall masters of Baibing Hall heard this, their expressions changed.
They didn't want to see the power in their hands being divided, but Chen Yuan had given top-notch skills and was a Gang Jin warrior. If he really wanted to sit in this position, they had no choice.
Just when the three of them were worried, Chen Yuan's answer was unexpected:
"Thanks to the gang leader for your appreciation, but I don't have this ambition, and I don't understand business. If possible, I don't want any position. I just ask the gang leader to give me some elixirs so that I can practice martial arts well."
Hou Yan and the other three looked happy and looked at Luo Zhenwu eagerly, for fear that he would disagree.
Luo Zhenwu was also quite surprised and said:
"No wonder you have made such rapid progress in martial arts. You turned out to be a martial arts idiot. Let's do this. From today on, you will serve as the deputy director of the Law Enforcement Hall. You will not care about secular affairs and only listen to my orders. The pills you need on weekdays will be provided by Shennong Hall. Supply, how?”
Chen Yuan cupped his fists and said:
"Thank you for your understanding!"
Luo Zhenwu laughed and said:
"Haha, today is a double happiness. Our gang has gained a secret skill to suppress the gang, and a deputy leader of Gang Jin. We must celebrate it! Come and invite the chef of Huixian Tower. Tonight I I want to clean up the dust for Hall Master Chen!”
Chen Yuan refused:
"I appreciate your kindness, but I have been trekking in the mountains for many days and am exhausted. Let's hold the welcoming banquet another day."
Luo Zhenwu nodded and said:
"Okay, Master Chen has worked hard all the way. It won't be too late to hold the welcoming banquet tomorrow."
Chen Yuan stood up and said goodbye. Before leaving, he seemed to remember something and clasped his fists and said:
"I have another unwelcome request. I hope the master will agree."
"Master Chen, please speak."
"This Liuyang Gong is my master's family secret skill. He unfortunately died in the mountains. He is in the hands of bandits, and I hope the gang can take care of his wife and daughter. "
Luo Zhenwu said solemnly:
"This matter is easy to say. Manager Li is ready to die, and he is a heroic and chivalrous man respected by everyone in the gang. How can I sit back and watch his widow and orphan suffer. Tomorrow I will send someone to Leping County to take them to the county city and ensure that they will live a prosperous and wealthy life in the second half of their lives!"
Chen Yuan bowed deeply and said:
"The leader is righteous!"
...
After Chen Yuan left, Luo Zhenwu sat in the main seat, silent for a long time, and fell into deep thought.
Others whispered, and their words were extremely excited.
The stones from other mountains can polish jade. They have been stuck in Gangjin for many years, and now they have a first-class skill. By analogy, they may have a chance to break through Huajin and reach a higher level.
Those warriors in the gang who are not suitable for Dragon and Tiger Jin also have a second way to go, and the road of martial arts is wider.
But not everyone was immersed in the joy brought by the Six Yang Gong. The old and frail Hou Yan was much calmer than the others.
"Ahem!"
He cleared his throat and said:
"Boss, what Chen Erniu said..."
"It was Master Chen."
"Master Chen's words are quite suspicious. If he really started practicing the Six Yang Gong early, it would not be as simple as refining bones three years ago. How could Li Yong die in the hands of the mountain bandits in the marrow refining realm to cover him?"
"Master Hou is right!"
Master Liu of the Law Enforcement Hall also said:
"If what he said is true, he has only practiced martial arts for four years and has reached Gangjin. It is incredible. There must be something hidden."
Others nodded in agreement, and someone else echoed:
"There are too many loopholes in his words. He must have other intentions..."
Luo Zhenwu frowned. Wrinkled his face, and said in a deep voice:
"Do you think I don't know that there are many untrue things in his words? But so what? Regardless of whether what he said is true or false, he is a Gangjin warrior, and he also presented a first-class martial arts method, that's enough!"
"And he also took the initiative to give up the position of deputy leader of Baibing Hall. He only wanted some pills to practice martial arts. What could he have planned? The plan of practicing martial arts? Our gang is now fighting fiercely with the Sanjiang Gang. Do we have to cut off one of our arms?"
"Don't forget that he is less than 20 years old, and he has the Gangjin cultivation. His talent is outstanding and rare in the world. The future prosperity of Fuhu Gang may depend on him. From now on, no one can talk about Master Chen again. Those who violate the rules will be punished like this!"
Snap!
Luo Zhenwu raised his hand and slapped it, and the Eight Immortals Table beside him broke and collapsed.
Everyone looked at each other and shut up.
...
Chen Yuan returned to the courtyard and fell asleep until the moon was in the middle of the sky, then he woke up slowly.
He slept for five hours.
He was hungry, so he pushed the door open and went out. There were servants waiting outside, asking him to wait.
Two quarters of an hour later, several servants brought in a sumptuous banquet for Chen Yuan to enjoy.
It turned out that Luo Zhenwu had already instructed the chef of Huixianlou to wait in a small courtyard nearby, and to start cooking whenever Chen Yuan got up.
After having enough wine and food, Chen Yuan went to the entrance of Shennong Hall to ask for a bottle of Jingyuan Dan, took out the jade pendant, and drew the starlight to infuse his body.
Feeling the long-lost cool and numb feeling, he couldn't help but close his eyes slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Due to the lack of pills in the past few days, he did not infuse the starlight, and the progress of martial arts training slowed down.
After infusing his body, he took two Jingyuan Dan, replenished his energy, activated the blood in his body, and began to practice Liuyang Palm.
Under the influence of the essence pill, Chen Yuan's blood and qi surged, and the speed of accumulating true qi was a little faster than the previous few days.
This practice lasted for two hours. It was late at night and everything was quiet. Chen Yuan was a little tired, so he slowly stopped.
He returned to the house, lit the oil lamp, took out the "Red Flame Art", and studied it carefully.
In the past half month, he has read this immortal cultivation method no less than a hundred times.
But no matter how many times he read it, he would be deeply shocked by its magical and mysterious aspects.
