As the most popular Golden Finger system, Jing Ke developed self-awareness and discovered that many individuals used it to successfully reverse their fates and become the so-called male protagonist...
Chapter 91 World Three [5]
The unique formula from the hidden sect was very effective. After taking a shower, Luo Yuezhu no longer felt any discomfort.
Luo Yuezhu even felt that her strength had increased a little, as if she had never been sleepless for several days, but had eaten well and slept well every day.
The recovery of her condition made Luo Yuezhu more confident in doing horse stance for two hours every day. After finishing her meal and briefly checking the account book, she went to the yard to do horse stance.
At this time, Jing Ke was memorizing the martial arts secrets stored in his head in the room. After some tricks, he was ready to let Luo Yuezhu practice both inside and outside from the beginning.
For internal skills, he would practice the Tianyan Heart Method passed down in the sect, and for external skills, he would start with basic swordsmanship, and then let Luo Yuezhu improve little by little.
In this way, the Luo Mansion ushered in ten days of relative peace.
Jing Ke would go to help Luo Yuezhu apply the ointment every morning without fail, and use his internal energy to promote the effect of the medicine.
As time passed, Luo Yuezhu's overall state of mind improved, and her gait became much more steady. Although her appetite had doubled, her senses had also become sharper. Now she could clearly identify the person approaching her room by the sound of footsteps.
Why was the period of relative peace only ten days long? Because after ten days, another group of people from the Wulin Alliance arrived.
The person leading the way was still Yu Buduo, but the person following him was not his ignorant junior brother, but a senior brother whom he called the deputy hall master.
As someone who had been here once, Yu Buduo brought his senior brother directly to the door of Luo's house and explained his identity to the new doorman.
"We are from the Wulin Alliance. We are here to look for Miss Luo. Please let her know." Yu Buduo said politely.
The doorman was the one that Luo Yuezhu asked Xiaomu to find after Luo Yuan's funeral, so the new doorman didn't know Yu Buduo. After staring at them for a long time, he said "wait a moment" and trotted off to report the news.
At this time, Luo Yuezhu was still doing horse stance. She used to be sweating profusely after just one stick of incense, but now after half an hour she was only sweating a little. It can be said that her physical condition had made a qualitative leap.
"People from the Wulin Alliance? Do they have news about the Demon Cult?" Luo Yuezhu asked subconsciously.
The concierge shook his head. "To answer Miss, they only said they were from the Wulin Alliance and asked me to make an announcement. I've carefully examined their attire. They were both riding horses and carrying swords. They must be from the Wulin Alliance."
"People from the Wulin Alliance are here?" To Jing Ke, the conversation in the yard was like a conversation in her ear, so after hearing the key words, she opened the door and walked out.
"Yes, two people came and wanted to see the lady," said the doorman.
"Miss Luo, please stay in the yard. I'll go and ask them why they are here." Jing Ke said, turned around and took down the sword hanging on the wall, held it in his hand and followed the doorman out.
Seeing this, Xiao Mu looked at the two people's backs with some concern. "Miss, do you think the Wulin Alliance has not given up their previous plan and wants to take you to their territory?"
Luo Yuezhu shook her head. "I don't know. Xiaomu, help me guard the door and don't let outsiders into my yard."
"Okay, miss, don't worry. I won't let those two people from the Wulin Alliance come in and bully you." Xiaomu agreed and immediately went over to guard the door.
Luo Yuezhu was naturally worried, but she knew that there was little she could do, so it would be better for her to stay here than to go out at this time.
After all, the people who came were from the Wulin Alliance, not the local chamber of commerce. If it was the latter, she could still step in to negotiate.
-
On the other side, the deputy hall master who followed over frowned slightly after realizing that he had waited for almost half a cup of tea and only saw a person who had nothing to do with Luo Yuezhu.
"Excuse me, sir," asked the deputy hall master, his tone not being particularly friendly.
Yu Buyu was unsure for a moment whether Jing Ke was more powerful or his senior brother was more powerful, so he simply acted as a background and stood obediently behind his senior brother.
Jing Ke did not answer immediately, because the moment she saw the man in the green cross-collared robe in front of her, she sensed the existence of fragments of her own body.
In other words, the fragment of Jing Ke's true self in this world is very likely in the person in front of him.
Since it is her own body, it is her own thing. After seeing the thief, she took action to take back the things that originally belonged to her. This should not be excessive, right?
Just like that, after staring at the deputy hall master in front of him for a while, Jing Ke drew the sword in his hand and stabbed at the person without saying a word.
Yu Buduo's pupils shrank slightly. He knew that Senior Jing Ke had a bad temper and looked like the kind of person who would kill someone if they disagreed with him.
But I didn't say a word just now, and Senior Brother Lin just asked a very normal question. Why did Jing Ke suddenly draw his sword? Isn't this a bit too sudden?
Yu Buduo couldn't help but complain in his heart, but he also knew very well that his strength was not as good as anyone who had already started fighting, so he retreated very quickly to avoid being affected.
"What do you mean, sir? Why are you drawing your sword against me? I'm from the Wulin Alliance and an old friend of Miss Luo." Lin Yusu didn't expect that someone would draw their sword at such a disagreement. After being caught off guard, he quickly fell into a disadvantage.
"You stole my things. Give them back to me, or I will kill you." Jing Ke took the time to reply, but the sword in her hand did not stop, but moved faster.
The two sides had only exchanged fifty moves when Lin Yusu had five or six bloody wounds on his body, either on his chest or wrists, which looked extremely dangerous.
"Have you recognized the wrong person? I just came out of seclusion and I haven't been in Central Plains for three or four years. How could I be the thief who stole your things?" Lin Yusu said, his tone sounding very polite.
There was no other way. Lin Yusu was currently being oppressed and beaten. If he had been too forceful, he would have sustained more wounds.
Jing Ke, who had already sensed the existence of her own body, would certainly not believe such words. More importantly, she had realized that those chosen by the rules were not good people, so she did not show much mercy when she took action.
If Jing Ke hadn't been worried about damaging nearby houses and the sword energy possibly affecting innocent people, he would have used his ultimate move to get rid of the person in front of him.
"Senior, Senior Brother has indeed just come out of seclusion. Did you recognize the wrong person? Or is someone deliberately impersonating Senior Brother in order to put the blame on him?"
Seeing that blood was beginning to ooze out of his senior brother's body, Yu Buduo, who wanted to sit on the sidelines and watch, was forced to draw his sword and join the battle, wanting to be a peacemaker and stop the two from fighting.
Jing Ke had no good feelings towards the man who stole his body, but when he saw Yu Buduo joining in, he temporarily withdrew his offensive in order to prevent his head from being chopped off.
"Master Yu, I'm giving you a chance. If you stay away now, I won't attack you. If you insist on blocking my way like you did just now, I'll treat you as if you're here to die."
Jing Ke felt that he had thoroughly understood the rules of survival in this world. As long as you are strong enough, you can do whatever you want. Anyone you dislike can be stabbed to death with a sword.
Jing Ke had no opinion on this rule that respected strength, but she adapted very well, making herself look like a person in the martial arts world who had a clear distinction between love and hate.
"Sir, I am Lin Yusu, the deputy leader of the Qinglong Hall of the Wulin Alliance. For the past four years, I have been in seclusion to study martial arts. Did you mistake the other thieves for me?" Lin Yusu said.
At the same time, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his chest and quickly swallowed the two pills.
"You have something on you that doesn't belong to you. As long as you take it out and return it to me, I won't kill you today." Jing Ke said as he glanced at the doorman who was hiding in the corner and didn't dare to say a word.
Considering that there was an ordinary person present, Jing Ke became more patient. "You should know what I'm talking about. It has brought you many opportunities. You may have accidentally obtained it from someone else."
"But, I tell you clearly now, that thing originally belonged to me. Either give it back to me, or I kill you now and take back what originally belonged to me." Jing Ke shook the sword and shook off the blood drops on the sword.
After hearing this, Lin Yusu's pupils shrank slightly. After such a clear reminder, he of course realized what Jing Ke was talking about.
But that was his reliance on becoming stronger and becoming the deputy leader of the Qinglong Hall in less than four years. If he gave it away so easily, he would never be able to make any further progress in his entire life.
"Have you recognized the wrong person? I have been in seclusion in recent years and have no idea what you have lost, let alone where you got your lost items from." Lin Yusu said, and began to think about how he could get out of this situation safely.
Thinking that he had been too conceited and only let Yu Duo lead the way, Lin Yusu felt a surge of regret in his heart. If he had known earlier, he would have brought more people, otherwise he would not have fallen into such a situation.
"Did you recognize the wrong person? It seems that you chose the latter." Jing Ke snorted coldly and continued to attack Lin Yusu with the sword in hand.
Seeing Yu Buduo rushing towards him fearlessly, Jing Ke didn't hesitate to use his sword to cut off a piece of flesh from his arm, and then kicked him in the abdomen, causing him to fall to the ground seriously injured.
Not long after Yu was out of the way, Jing Ke quickly inflicted many more wounds on Lin Yusu's body.
After another sword fell, Jing Ke directly cut through Lin Yusu's collar, and a translucent jade pendant was cut off from the red rope and flew out.
When Lin Yusu saw the jade pendant originally hanging around his neck flying out, his expression changed immediately. He didn't care whether he was injured or not, and reached out to grab the jade pendant.
How could Jing Ke give the other party this opportunity? He turned neatly in the air and kicked Lin Yusu in the face without any hesitation, then steadily took the fragment of his body in his hand.
Thinking of the incarnation of the original body that Lin Yusu had once worn close to his body, Jing Ke couldn't help but frown. He immediately absorbed the energy belonging to the original body, and then crushed the jade pendant into powder.
This stuff is already dirty and there is no point in keeping it.
"You still say you don't have it? You've already put it on, and you still don't admit it?" Jing Ke said, shaking his hand with a look of disgust.
"How dare you!" Seeing the jade pendant that brought him countless opportunities being crushed like this, Lin Yusu's mentality collapsed. He didn't even bother to think about whether he could beat Jing Ke. He rushed forward to fight to the death.
"Stop, stop now, fighting is not allowed in residential areas!" The patrolling yamen runners who usually had no sense of presence rushed over after hearing the noise.
Their martial arts skills are mediocre, and they rely entirely on the clothes they wear to intimidate some people who like to cause trouble.
After all, injuring civilians can be explained as carelessness, but if a yamen runner in official robes is injured or killed, it concerns the reputation of the court.
Sihai Pavilion does not usually do much, but if the people who kill government officials are some martial artists from small sects, they will occasionally kill the chicken to scare the monkeys to make themselves feel more present.
It was obvious that both Jing Ke and Lin Yusu, the person being beaten, were considered unwise martial artists by the patrolling yamen runners, so he dared to stand up like this.
Having achieved his goal, Jing Ke stopped out of courtesy, but Lin Yusu completely ignored the presence of the yamen runner and was about to chop at Jing Ke with the sword in his hand.
Tsk, the rules really like to choose some trash and scum, make them connected with their own original body, and then send them on the road to success.
Jing Ke sighed in his heart, dodged Lin Yusu's random sword attack by moving sideways, and then clenched his fist to give him a solid uppercut.
This punch is not a skill that Jing Ke's body has, but something he learned in the previous world when he was serving as a professional sparring partner for a girlfriend who had won two domestic film queen titles.
With the support of martial arts masters and internal strength, an ordinary uppercut can exert great power.
For example, breaking someone's jaw and knocking him five meters away, causing him to fall to the ground with a thud, only spitting blood and unable to speak.
"As you can see, I'm not a violent person. He was the one who drew his sword and shouted at me to kill me, and I just fought back to protect myself." Jing Ke said.
She was not in a good mood after successfully recovering her body's energy, and her patience also increased.
The guards looked at Jing Ke, hesitant to speak. The scene they had just witnessed was indeed Lin Yusu attacking the other party. But the problem was that the two people lying on the ground looked more like victims.
"By the way, they came up and said they were from the Wulin Alliance. I don't know whether this is true or not. If you need help, why not take them to the hospital for treatment and ask about the details?" Jing Ke gave a friendly suggestion.
The imperial court that wants to control the world and the free and undisciplined people in the martial arts world who do not abide by the law are destined to stand on opposite sides. As long as the government is given a suitable excuse, they will definitely not mind asking some useful information from the members of the Wulin Alliance.
Especially since Lin Yusu and Yu Buduo had been severely injured by Jing Ke, they looked particularly weak in the eyes of the yamen runners.
So after hesitating for a while, the yamen runner chose to give up questioning Jing Ke, who looked very strong, and chose Lin Yusu and Yu Buduo, two people who had no ability to resist, as the soft persimmons to be bullied.
Only after the yamen runners took the two men away did Jing Ke clean the blood off his sword and sheath it again.
"The matter has been handled. If Miss Luo asks, you should know what to say, right?" Jing Ke asked calmly.
The doorman shuddered incoherently and said in a voice that rose and fell, "I understand, I understand. Those two who called themselves the Wulin Alliance stole your treasure and kept it for themselves, refusing to return it. So, you dealt with them. After the officials arrived and understood the situation, they took them away."
"Yes, please get me a basin of water. I want to wash my hands." Jing Ke said politely.
This doorman is very sensible. He figured out what happened at a glance. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to work as a doorman for a long time.
-
After simply dealing with the smell of blood on his body, Jing Ke put a faint smile on his face again, and entered the courtyard under Xiaomu's surprised eyes.
"Ms. Jing, how are the people from the Wulin Alliance? I just heard some noise here." Luo Yuezhu asked with a hint of concern, her eyes constantly searching for Jing Ke.
After making sure that Jing Ke had no wounds on her body, she slowly exhaled.
"One of them was not much, and the other was a thief. I beat him up and then took him away by the government." Jing Ke summed it up in one sentence.
"Thief? The people from the Wulin Alliance are thieves?" Xiao Mu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and asked the question in his mind without thinking.
"Well, he was stubborn at first, saying it was a misunderstanding. But that was a treasure related to the sect's inheritance. Every disciple could resonate with the treasure, so there was absolutely no possibility of making a mistake." Jing Ke said seriously.
The so-called opportunities in this world should be the shortcuts to increase internal strength and the peerless skills that are almost lost.
Whether it is elixirs to improve cultivation or countless top-level skills, there are quite a few in the treasure house of Jing Ke's sect. If you round it off, the jade pendant can be regarded as the key to open the door to treasures, and naturally it is the treasure of Master Jing Ke's sect.
"Where is that thing? Did you get it back, Miss Jing?" Xiaomu asked.
"I got it, but the thief had worn it for a long time. I thought it was dirty, so I destroyed it," said Jing Ke.
"Ah? In that case, what will happen to your master's inheritance, Miss Jing? Will your master blame you for this?" Xiaomu began to worry sincerely.
"It's okay, I've already become a master. I destroyed the lost treasure just to prevent the inheritance of my master from falling into the hands of outsiders." Jing Ke explained simply.
Xiaomu nodded, not quite understanding. Since Lady Jing said it was okay, then it was okay, and he didn't need to worry anymore.
Luo Yuezhu, who had been brushing up on her martial arts knowledge over the past few days, became worried. "Miss Jing, the Wulin Alliance members are always very protective of their own people. If you injure them, they might... find more people to help the injured person vent his anger."
"It's okay, I'm not afraid of the people from the Wulin Alliance. Unless all the masters in the Wulin Alliance come to besiege me, no matter how many of them there are, they can't beat me." Jing Ke said with a smile.
These words were obviously outrageous, but after coming out of the mouth of Jing Ke, who seemed very reliable, they seemed to become particularly believable.
