Chapter 20: The Turbulence in the Jianghu

As Feng Yi and Ding Dian left Jingzhou City, the entire martial arts world began to become turbulent.

Just because of a piece of news, it began to ferment in the world.

Eleven years ago, Ding Dian, who inherited Mei Niansheng's legacy, appeared in Jiangling. Subsequently, Feng Yi of the Longsha Gang defected from the gang for the sake of Shenzhao Gong and Liancheng Jue. He assisted Ding Dian in causing chaos in the prefectural government and abducted Ling Shuanghua, the prefect's daughter.

Feng Yi! A little-known person instantly became a hot and popular figure.

In order to verify this information, Jingzhou City quickly gathered various underworld figures to conduct open and secret investigations.

It was concluded that the news was true.

Ding Dian was imprisoned by Ling Tui Si for three years. There were too many witnesses, including the constables of Jingzhou government, the soldiers guarding the city, and the disciples of Longsha Gang.

Whether it is the love story between Ding Dian and Ling Shuanghua, or Feng Yi's defection, only a few people care about it. However, the Shenzhaojing and Feng Yi's performance directly touched the nerves of the entire martial arts world.

Especially since Feng Yi was just a small fry before, but now he can actually compete with Ling Tui Si in the prefectural yamen. What did he rely on? It was the Shenzhao Gong! Then, can I become the second him? There is no shortage of people in the world who are self-important and take risks for the sake of profit.

In an instant, the martial arts world was in turmoil because of Feng Yi.

However, although Feng Yi didn't know all this yet, he could think of it, so he was unwilling to separate from Ding Dian for the time being.

It is to learn more martial arts and improve my strength so that I can cope with future journeys in the martial arts world.

So while the storm was raging outside and the ship was sailing along the Yangtze River, he added some upgrades in the cabin.

Feng Yi clicked the “+” after Shen Zhao Gong.

Suddenly, I felt a trace of cool air slowly seeping into my dantian and lower abdomen through my meridians. The cool air flowed down my meridians like a thin stream of water, and the stream became more and more numerous and faster and faster.

Suddenly, Dantian felt hot and heat surged in the lower abdomen. According to the Shenzhao Gong mental method, the internal energy in the body flowed like a river and flowed naturally to various acupoints in the body without any effort.

White mist came out of Feng Yi's head, and his whole body felt soft and he felt indescribably light and comfortable.

Feng Yi was overjoyed. Before this, he had been concentrating on gathering his Qi. The internal energy in his Yin meridian went to the "Wei Lu Point" at the end of his coccyx. It was extremely difficult to move it up even an inch.

The internal energy in the Yang meridian wants to move quickly from the "Baihui Point" to the Jinsuo Pass between the mouth and nose, but it encounters a blockage. Even if it wants to move slowly up an inch, it is extremely difficult.

How could it be like this now, the internal energy flows through the acupoints of the whole body without any stagnation. For a moment, I felt relaxed and happy, and even felt that the blood in my body was warmed up.

After a while, I felt that everything was silent around me, and the world was suddenly still. I seemed to be in the mountains again, with the wind blowing past me, and in front of me was a calm lake without a single ripple.

After a while, his body felt light, as if he had drunk a lot of strong liquor.

After a while, a bright light appeared before his eyes and he felt full of energy. His whole body, even his hair, was full of strength. Feng Yi felt so comfortable all over that he was reluctant to stop practicing. He drove his internal energy to wander around the eight extraordinary meridians. Every time it wandered around, his internal energy became stronger. He repeated this cycle over and over again without stopping.

After a long time, Feng Yi slowly opened his eyes and felt that all the pores on his body were unobstructed and comfortable.

I couldn't help but think: "My internal energy can quickly travel throughout my body, and the Ren and Du meridians that control the sea of ​​yin and yang must be unblocked."

He clenched his fist and felt that he was so strong that he could blow up a mountain with one punch.

Feng Yi also knew that this was an illusion and it was definitely impossible. However, this made him understand the biggest doubt in martial arts.

Why don't gold-type warriors mention their cultivation realm? Because it is meaningless.

One of them opened up his meridians by practicing top-level skills such as Shenzhao Gong, Jiuyang Shengong, Jiuyin Shengong, etc., while the other one used ordinary skills. In fact, the speed of the internal force running and the power contained in the two are not comparable at all.

It seems that to judge a person's martial arts ability, we cannot just look at his level of cultivation. This so-called level can only be used to understand oneself and promote one's own cultivation. It is of no use in other ways.

His mind turned, and he saw the column of mental skills on the panel.

[Internal Skill: Shenzhao Gong (completed) + Note: "Perfection" requires an achievement value of 150]

Feng Yi thought for a moment and realized that his internal strength had been perfected. Although his skills had not yet reached the state of perfection and returning to the original state, there was only a slight gap in the use of internal strength, which did not have a big impact on his strength.

In the original plot, Ding Dian's internal strength had not yet reached the level of perfection, but it was already extremely powerful.

Even though I took advantage of the system, Di Yun also took advantage of it, and he was also very awesome. There was no reason for me to be worse than him.

When he looked at the system interface, he saw that the Shadowless Divine Fist had already been perfected. Apparently, with the improvement of his internal strength, he could use all kinds of fist techniques with ease.

Then the next step is to work hard on the light Kung Fu body skills. If you only know the light Kung Fu and rely on internal energy to forcibly dodge and move, it won't add much to your strength.

Only when you have eliminated your shortcomings in internal strength, physical skills, and means of attack, can your strength be truly greatly improved.

…

The terrain below Jiangling is flat, and the Yangtze River meanders between Hunan and Hubei and flows eastward. Seeing towns and villages on both sides of the Yangtze River passing by the boat, Ding Dian and Ling Shuanghua talked and laughed while looking at the beautiful scenery, while Feng Yi just concentrated on practicing.

Ding Dian's martial arts skills are varied, but he has mastered Feng Yi's Shen Zhao skill. With this supreme internal strength as a foundation, he can learn and master any martial arts in one go.

The progress was so fast that Ding Dian thought he had met a god. At present, he didn't know that Feng Yi's Shenzhao Gong had already reached perfection, so he didn't care about the complexity and passed it all to Feng Yi.

When Feng Yi was not practicing on his own, he would learn martial arts from Ding Dian.

Every time he fought with Ding Dian, he understood the essence of martial arts a little bit, his Shenzhao Gong was upgraded to perfection, and his achievement value was reduced from 150 to 149. Obviously, this was due to his own understanding.

In order to avoid revealing his whereabouts, Ding Dian sailed on the ship for several days without docking. He not only taught Feng Yi martial arts, but also told him the Liancheng Jue.

In fact, this range of numbers is just a code, but this code has to be read in conjunction with the collection of Tang poetry. Of course, even without this code, Feng Yi knows that the Liancheng treasure is in Tianning Temple.

Ding Dian didn't care about the treasure and just let Feng Yi choose the right opportunity to benefit the people.

Feng Yi knew that it was poisonous, and now he didn't know how to deal with it, so he didn't bother to remember it at all. Instead, he asked a question he really wanted to know.

"Brother Ding, when Master Mei taught you martial arts, didn't he tell you to clean up the mess?"

After hearing this, Ding Dian's eyes became leisurely and his thoughts were in a mess, as if he was back to that night on the banks of the Yangtze River.

After a while, Ding Dian said solemnly, "No! At that time, my martial arts skills were far inferior to those of Wan Zhenshan and his men. I was no match for just one person, let alone three.

Moreover, Master Mei was in danger of death at that time, and he just said to me: "My third disciple is the most powerful. He stabbed me in the back without warning, and the old man was forced to jump into the river to escape. At that time, he had a bitter smile on his face, and he was very helpless. How could he have the nerve to say anything about clearing the family to me?"

Feng Yi sneered and said, "What a great 'Iron Chain Across the River' Qi Changfa!"

Ding Dian hummed and said, "That's him! Brother, you are a genius. At your age, you will definitely achieve great things in the martial arts world, but you have to be careful of those conspiracies and tricks.

For example, Qi Changfa's nickname of "Iron Chains Across the River" superficially means that he is a great martial artist and good at defense, so the enemy cannot break into his gate; but in fact he is smart and resourceful, extremely powerful, and anyone who provokes him will be killed.

He must have devised a plan for revenge that would make people feel like a boat spinning in a whirlpool in the middle of a river, unable to go up or down."

Feng Yi heard the concern in his words and nodded, "Thank you for the reminder, brother."

At this point, Youyou sighed and said, “A great master actually died at the hands of his own disciple.

How vicissitudes of life and sadness in this world are truly unspeakable! "

Ding Dian also sighed, "Mr. Mei is like a half-mentor to me. I couldn't save him that day, and I couldn't avenge him. I feel guilty."

Feng Yi smiled slightly and said, "Brother, between you and Wan Zhenshan now, who is more powerful?"

Ding Dian pondered and said, "Back then I thought Wan Zhenshan and the others were very powerful, but now I think back to when I think about it, their internal strength was average and their swordsmanship was full of flaws.

In terms of real martial arts, I am stronger than them now, but after all, my collarbone was pierced and my leg tendons were cut, so I can only use 60% of my martial arts. I can win if I fight alone, but if three people attack me together, I will find it difficult to resist. "

Feng Yi nodded: "Brother, after all, your body is damaged, and your magic power is not yet complete. Besides, you have concerns now, so it is not appropriate for you to get involved in the grudges of the martial arts world. Let me take care of Mr. Mei's revenge."

Ding Dian raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised, and said, "You said in the government office that I had inherited the true teachings of Master Mei, and I was accepting disciples on behalf of the master. Did you think of this step?"

Feng Yi smiled and said, "To be honest, big brother, I was in prison to save my life, but I actually deceived you by relying on some information gaps. But you taught me martial arts, which can be said to be receiving gifts without any merit. If I don't do something, I will feel uneasy!"

Ling Shuanghua secretly praised Feng Yi for his deep sense of righteousness, and said that Ding Dian was lucky to have such a good friend.

After hearing this, Ding Dian was even more excited, his blood boiling, and he said loudly: "Brother, you are frank! I knew Shuanghua was in danger at that time, and I was helpless. I could only try my best! I had already made up my mind at that time. If you couldn't master the Shenzhao Gong that night and couldn't help me escape and rescue Shuanghua, I would really take your life and not let the secret leak out! You can say this today, which makes Ding very ashamed! You are even more determined to help me get rid of the regret in my heart. Please accept my greeting!"

Although Ding Dian was a proud person, he also knew that Feng Yi was taking a huge risk to seek revenge on Wan Zhenshan and others for him, which was also a way for Ding Dian to have nothing to be ashamed of. In gratitude, he suddenly knelt on his knees and was about to kowtow to Feng Yi.

Feng Yi had already stretched out his hands to support him. Ding Dian felt a huge force trying to lift him up. He could not help but use his strength to resist, but he felt a strong internal force surging in, which was too overwhelming to resist. He could not help but let him help him and stood up. He was very surprised and said in a trembling voice: "Brother, did you make it?"

Ding Dian knelt sincerely, but he was unexpectedly lifted up by Feng Yi. He had a feeling that if Feng Yi exerted more strength, he would be able to flip him over. There was no other way to explain this ability except that he had mastered the Shenzhao Gong.

Feng Yi tried to stop him from bowing again, but he didn't take his hands back. He smiled and said, "We were both seeking for the sake of Da, so why should we be ashamed? And you have taught me martial arts, so how can you bow to me?"

Ding Dian saw that he was strong but not ungrateful, which was a sign of chivalry. He was only happy for his sudden success. He immediately bowed to the ground and said, "It is a great honor for Ding Dian to teach Brother Feng some basic skills!"

Feng Yi was very proud and accepted his bow. After all, he had been beaten by him and had also knelt before him. This was even. He smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, big brother."

Ding Dian stood up and asked in surprise, "Brother, you are not really a god. I think I am not stupid, but I have been practicing Shenzhao Gong for more than eight years and I have not yet achieved perfection. How come you have mastered this skill in just a few days?"

Feng Yi sorted out his thoughts and said, "Brother, you also said that the Divine Light Technique requires a clear mind. You were not trying to prevent others from hunting you down before, and later you were trapped by love, so your progress was slow. I am heartless and don't have your worries. Perhaps this is exactly what the Divine Light Technique means, letting nature take its course."

After a long while, Ding Dian said leisurely: "Brother, you are a free and easy person with noble character. In time, you will become a master and leave your name in the martial arts world forever!"

Feng Yi smiled and said, "If you praise me again, I will be very proud."

Ling Shuanghua smiled and said, "Okay, okay, stop talking, it's time to eat."

After the three of them finished their dinner, Feng Yi said again: "Brother Ding, please tell me the details of how the hero Mei was harmed by the third disciple. It will make me feel like I was there."

Feng Yi had his own intentions, but he didn't know the details of Mei Niansheng's death, which was inconvenient.

Ling Shuanghua asked curiously: "Brother Dian, you didn't tell Brother Feng about this?"

Ding Dian had a close conversation with Ling Shuanghua back then, and he had told her about this a long time ago.

Ding Dian said, "I haven't had time to think about it yet." He then looked at Feng Yi and asked, "Do you want to expose the evil deeds of these three people to the public?"

Feng Yi nodded and said: "These three old thieves killed our mentor without any humanity. It would be too easy to kill them with just one punch.

We must bring disgrace upon them!"

Ding Dian nodded, and then told the story of how he witnessed Wan Zhenshan and others killing his master.

After listening to Ding Dian's narration, Feng Yi realized that Ding Dian thought that what Mei Niansheng taught him was just a secret manual of magical skills. It was not until he met Ling Shuanghua and Ling Tui Si later that he learned that the treasure was left by Emperor Yuan of Liang.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Feng Yi was surprised and asked, "Did it be my sister-in-law who told you?" He looked at Ling Shuanghua.

Although Feng Yi knew the general plot of Lian Cheng Jue, he was not very clear about the details.

Ling Shuanghua said slowly: "During the Six Dynasties, Emperor Wu of Liang died in the Hou Jing Rebellion, and Emperor Jianwen succeeded him, but was also killed by Hou Jing. King Xiao Yi of Xiangdong succeeded him in Jiangling and became Emperor Yuan of Liang.

Emperor Yuan of Liang was weak and incompetent, but he loved to amass wealth. He was the emperor in Jiangling for three years, and he plundered countless gold, pearls, and precious treasures. In the third year of Chengsheng, Wei soldiers attacked Jiangling and killed Emperor Yuan. But no one knew where his accumulated treasures were hidden.

In order to investigate the treasures, Wei Bing Marshal Yu Jin tortured, killed and looted thousands of people, but he was unable to track them down.

He was afraid that someone who knew where the treasure was would secretly dig it up in the future, so he drove tens of thousands of people from Jiangling back to Chang'an. Some were killed, some were buried alive, and almost no one survived. For hundreds of years, this secret has never been revealed. As time goes by, no one knows about it anymore."

Feng Yi was dazed for a moment: "Oh, now I know, your father guessed that the treasure is in Jiang Ling. So..."

Ling Shuanghua nodded and said, "Yes, my father spent many years looking through the records of Jingzhou Prefecture and various ancient books and records, and concluded that Emperor Liang Yuan's treasures must be buried somewhere outside Jiangling City.

Emperor Yuan of Liang was cruel, and after burying the treasure, he must have killed all the people who knew the secret. Therefore, no matter how much the Wei army commander tortured the people, he could not get any clues. "

Ding Dian showed a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth and glanced at Ling Shuanghua, only to see that she was also looking at him with a sad look in her eyes and trembling all over. She obviously remembered that they were both poisoned by "Jinbo Xunhua" because of this secret.

He said immediately: "Before I met Shuanghua, I only thought that the dispute between Master Mei and his disciples was because of a sword technique manual in our sect. Therefore, I didn't expect that it had to be kept strictly secret, so I erected a monument in front of Master Mei's tomb.

Unexpectedly, someone used the clues from the stone tablet to trace the stonemason and the boatman, and found out that the tablet was erected by me.

Since I was the one who buried Mr. Mei, most likely the things he was carrying fell into my hands.

Three months later, someone came to my house. I told him the truth, but he asked me to show him the scriptures.

Mr. Mei told me not to mislead the bandits, so I refused to hand him over, and he left in dismay. Three days later, he came to my house in the middle of the night and started fighting with me. He had a bruise on his shoulder, so he gave up.

Once the news got out, more and more people came to visit me. I couldn't handle it, and in the end, even Wan Zhenshan came.

I couldn't stay in my hometown of Jingmen, so I just left, hiding my identity, and went to a ranch outside the Great Wall to trade in livestock.

After five or six years, I heard nothing more about my hometown. I missed it so I changed my clothes and went back to Jingmen to have a look. But I found that my old house had been burned down to the ground. Fortunately, I didn't have any relatives, so it was clean.

Later, I met Shuanghua in Wuchang, and you know what happened next."

Ling Shuanghua sighed lightly, revealing a melancholy look: "Brother Dian told you this because I actually wanted to tell you that the most terrifying thing in the martial arts world is not martial arts, but the human heart!"

Feng Yi nodded, and thinking of Ding Dian's experiences and encounters, he felt a sense of panic and fear for no reason, and immediately stood up and walked out of the cabin.

Seeing that he looked gloomy, Ding Dian and Ling Shuanghua didn't ask any more questions.

Feng Yi walked slowly to the bow, looked at the broad river with his hands behind his back, his clothes rustling in the river wind, and couldn't help but sigh.

Although Feng Yi has experienced many thrilling things up to now, he can also be said to have had a smooth life.

He has mastered the Divine Light Power and the Shadowless Divine Fist. There is no one in the world who can match him. What else is not enough?

But he still felt a little panic.

After all, Ding Dian was forced to hide here and there because of a mistake, although his martial arts skills were far better than those of Ding Dian in the past.

But in the original plot, Ding Dian, who had mastered the Shenzhao Gong and whose martial arts were no less than his own, was poisoned to death by "Jinbo Xunhua".

How could we be sure that there wasn't a poison as powerful as this "devil flower"? Poison was something that was impossible to guard against!

And his advantage as a prophet will become less and less in the future. Feng Yi felt quite discouraged when he thought of this. In this Liancheng world, he didn't know where to find someone to learn the art of poison from!

So, how should I treat this world?

Feng Yi felt that he needed to think carefully about it.

After all, powerful martial arts are not the same as an indestructible and immortal body!

…

That day the boatman said that they had run out of rice and needed to dock for supplies. Ding Dian said he would dock at night.

At night, before they got close to the river bank, Feng Yi and Ding Dian heard a commotion on the shore from afar and hurriedly lifted the tent to check.

There were two large ships and several fishing boats moored on the river bank. Torches were alight and people were visible on the shore.

Suddenly, a duck-like voice was heard shouting, "Fuck, Feng Yi is so lucky to be appreciated by Ding Dian."

Feng Yi's boat was still more than twenty feet away from the shore, but Feng Yi and Ding Dian both had profound internal strength and sharp ears and eyes, so they heard everything clearly.

Feng Yi's face was gloomy, and then he heard a loud voice shouting, "Yeah, Ling Tui Si is also a fucking loser. He was actually tricked by this brat Feng Yi. If our Dongting Gang had held Ding Dian for three years, we would have gotten the secret of the skill long ago!

Humph, damn it, this time we split up into three groups and see where Ding Dian and Feng Yi run to. "

I only heard the duck voice shouting: "You are right, Ding Dian and Feng Yi dare not take responsibility for what they did, they are all cowards. I have been looking for them everywhere!"

Everyone, be alert and pay attention to the boats landing, especially the two men and one woman. "

Ding Dian turned around and asked, "Brother, do you know these people?"

Feng Yi picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and sneered: "The Longsha Gang and the Dongting Gang have been at odds for many years. We have fought with them several times, and the leaders were the two hall masters."

Ding Dian nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

There are too many such hall masters who are actually petty thieves.

Feng Yi put down his wine glass and said, "Brother Ding, let's say goodbye now."

Ding Dian frowned and asked, "You want to go out?"

Feng Yi hesitated for a moment and said, "You and your sister-in-law are about to retire from the martial arts world, but I am about to become famous in the martial arts world.

Besides, if Lian Cheng Jue and Shen Zhao Gong appeared in the martial arts world, it would definitely cause a sensation. If you and I don’t show up, it will be endless.

As long as I am in the martial arts world, all the disputes in the martial arts world will be placed on me, so..."

Ding Dian showed a moving expression on his face and said, "Brother, do you know..."

Feng Yi picked up the wine pot and toasted Ding Dian, saying, "Brother, don't worry about the affairs of the martial arts world in the future.

If I don’t die, I will surely be feared by the world! If I die, it is my fate, no need to say more! "

Ding Dian was also a capable man. He knew that everyone had their own aspirations. He stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Take care, brother!" Tears almost burst out of his eyes.

Feng Yi stood up, clasped his fists and bowed to Ding Dian and Ling Shuanghua: "May you two grow old together and have children soon. Goodbye!"

Ling Shuanghua suddenly called out in a tender voice: "Brother, slow down."

Feng Yi turned his head and asked, "Sister-in-law, do you have any other instructions?"

Ling Shuanghua: "I..."

Ding Dian looked at Ling Shuanghua, who lowered her neck and looked worried, and said, "Are you going to talk about Prefect Ling?"

Feng Yi suddenly realized and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I didn't feed poison to Ling Zhifu, that's fake!"

Ling Shuanghua said happily: "Then I feel relieved!"

Feng Yi sighed inwardly: "You have the love of a parent, but others don't have the love of a father and daughter!" He clasped his fists and said: "The journey is long, take care!"

Ling Shuanghua only felt a whirlwind rising in the cabin, and Feng Yi's figure disappeared as the door curtain opened and closed. Then she heard a long scream coming from the riverside.
