The closer they got to the house, the stranger Zhang Mingtu's expression became.
When Wang Mazi stood in front of a somewhat dilapidated house with a happy look on his face, the strangeness in Zhang Mingtu's eyes could no longer be concealed.
He had just dug out a box of gold and silver from under the mulberry tree in this house some time ago.
Part of the money used to buy this house was dug out from this yard.
"What is this? A free ride?"
Zhang Mingtu had a strange look on his face, but Wang Mazi didn't notice. He was overwhelmed by the huge sum of thirty taels of silver and was in a state of excitement.
"This house is quite large, and it has a huge yard, which completely meets your requirements. I have asked the dentist to clean up the yard.
"But there aren't many furnitures here. They were all pawned by that prodigal son. If we want to move in, we have to buy new ones..."
Wang Mazi earnestly introduced the mulberry tree where Zhang Mingtu dug the silver, and sighed, "The old rich man was frugal and managed his household well. His servants and wife would raise silkworms in their free time, so there were many mulberry trees in his home. Unfortunately, these mulberry trees have been abandoned for a long time..."
Zhang Mingtu looked around. Before this, he was just digging for money under the mulberry tree and didn't look at the house carefully.
Now that Wang Mazi came to see it openly, he found that the house was quite large.
Both large houses have four rooms, plus a living room, kitchen, and a huge courtyard that is probably close to 100 square meters.
For Zhang Mingtu, who lives alone, this is good enough.
It was obvious that the yard had been cleaned up, all the weeds had been pulled out, the dust in the house had been swept away, and the broken windows had been re-papered.
Compared with the scene when Zhang Mingtu came here last time, the house now looks brand new.
"Good, you did great."
Zhang Mingtu nodded, then frowned slightly when he saw that Wang Mazi hadn't left yet: "Anything else?"
"Nothing..."
Wang Mazi gritted his teeth, thinking about the speculations in his mind, and then opened his mouth to say, "I have some doubts about martial arts. I wonder if the young master can give me some guidance?"
In fact, this is a round of temptation.
Zhang Mingtu's performance is totally inconsistent with his identity. He is an extraordinary martial artist at such a young age that he is suspected of having undergone marrow cleansing and blood transfusion. This is considered top-notch even in the martial arts academy of Longxing Prefecture.
The fact that he easily took out ten taels of gold was completely inconsistent with his family background. Wang Mazi thought that this meant that Zhang Mingtu trusted him more.
He had never practiced martial arts in the grain ship gang before. The reason why he was included in the Black Wind Tiger gang was because he bravely stepped forward in a bloody fight.
Afterwards, the hall master saw his brave performance and nodded, allowing him to collect the bodies of many brothers, thus gaining the recognition of the hall.
Although he doesn't know why Zhang Mingtu values him, Zhang Mingtu has already shown his good intentions. If he doesn't behave better and be closer, he is afraid that he will not be able to hold on to this thigh in the future.
After many years of wandering around the world, he still has some experience.
"I have many problems in my martial arts practice. My Yijin training is going well, but I'm not sure how to strengthen my bones..."
Then he told him all the difficulties he encountered in practicing martial arts. Although it was a question, he did not express much hope.
It is more of a token of closeness, like a token of allegiance.
There are many key points in martial arts practice. If there is a mistake, the meridians will be damaged at the least, and the blood will flow backwards at the worst, resulting in half-life paralysis or even death.
Therefore, these secrets are often passed down from master to disciple or within the family, and outsiders are not allowed to point out or explain them at will.
Unless the relationship is extremely close, it will not be told to outsiders.
Moreover, Wang Mazi believed that Zhang Mingtu was gifted and it was very likely that he had undergone a marrow cleansing and blood transfusion at such a young age. He must have lived a life of luxury since childhood and had an endless supply of elixirs.
Once you start practicing martial arts, you will make rapid progress.
The difficult and complicated diseases that ordinary people encounter are nothing to him.
After all, someone else’s starting point may very well be the end point of many people’s lives, and even most people cannot reach their starting point.
Zhang Mingtu listened briefly and quickly figured out the problem.
"Your Qi and blood are swollen now, and you often feel your Yang energy boiling. You don't know how to strengthen your bones properly. It's probably because you took too much Siwu Decoction and Bazhen Decoction, and the medicinal properties haven't been absorbed..."
"Also, there must be something wrong with the boxing technique you're practicing. Did you learn it at a martial arts school? You haven't learned the complete method of moving your Qi and blood. There are problems with the subtle details..."
Zhang Mingtu was not as gifted as Wang Mazi thought. He had once been troubled by his talent, with weak blood and energy, and low potential. He had experienced all of Wang Mazi's experiences.
As soon as Wang Mazi asked, Zhang Mingtu immediately knew the bottleneck in his practice.
In terms of talent in cultivation, it took Zhang Mingtu ten years to master the art of boxing, and at that time his level was just at the level of bone strengthening. His talent was two levels lower than Wang Mazi's.
Wang Mazi had never had a famous teacher, and he had practiced boxing randomly before and had not kept up with his diet, so he hurt himself during training.
Therefore, there were many obstacles in practicing boxing, but now the difficulties encountered are not difficult.
Wang Mazi didn't quite understand at first, and he didn't expect to get an answer.
But Zhang Mingtu suspected that someone from a big family was taking refuge in Jianyi, or had other missions here.
He seemed to be well-informed and his words were well-reasoned, so he memorized all the relevant answers.
When I returned home and tried it, I first modified a few key points in the boxing movements.
Then he practiced martial arts to mobilize his Qi and blood, and moved them throughout his body. He immediately felt that all the heat in his body was gone. He was not as excited as before, but his body felt more relaxed. He was suddenly shocked.
I am increasingly hesitant to confirm Zhang Mingtu's identity.
Zhang Mingtu didn't think much about it. After Wang Mazi left, he contacted the real estate agency and bought four more houses near this residence after changing his appearance.
Each time he would use a different identity and appearance. If the broker tried to find out the bottom of the price, he would take out the silver ingots and roll them into balls or cakes.
Things usually go very smoothly at this point. The rumor in the underworld that the innkeepers should be killed even if they are innocent, but this was not the case with Zhang Mingtu. Everyone was very friendly.
After doing all this, the sense of oppression in Zhang Mingtu's heart was no longer as strong as before.
At night, he went home to rest as usual. Feeling the last word in the Book of Life and Death gradually dimmed, Zhang Mingtu felt something in his heart.
The bright moon hung high outside the house. Xue Cheng, the chief flag of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, was standing on the roof at some point. His Feiyu suit fluttered in the wind, a long sword hung from his waist, and he held a scroll in his hand.
Seeing Zhang Mingtu noticed him, Xue Cheng nodded, and lightly threw his right hand. The light book suddenly flashed like a sword, crossing a distance of more than ten feet.
When he floated in front of Zhang Mingtu, his strong force suddenly disappeared, and he landed on the desk, showing his extremely superb hand skills.
Zhang Mingtu lowered his head to look, and on the book was clearly written the words "Tai Shang San Sheng Jie Yuan Mi Jing".
"Remember not to spread this information casually, otherwise you will have nowhere to escape, and you will be hunted down by the Imperial Guards."
Before he finished speaking, the person disappeared.
