Chapter 9 Cross Fist



"Son of a bitch, this dog runs pretty fast." Odo came fast and left fast, slamming the door hard, without even looking, and walked away. He felt extremely aggrieved, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. His distorted expression made the wound on his face hurt. He lowered his head to hide his true emotions.

The group blew out the torches and walked out of the slums in dejection.

At this time, people around started talking and speculating what had happened here. Who did Dolai offend to deserve being found in the middle of the night?

In the dark night, voices of discussion were heard.

Dole and Oddo still hid under the window and did not come out. They waited for a long time, until the discussions around them died down, then they came out from outside and came to the front of the gate.

At this time, the gate was completely broken and could no longer be used. Even if it was repaired, it would probably attract Oddo's attention in the future, so this place was unusable.

Dole looked at Oddo at his feet, sighed, and said, "We have to move to another place."

Oddo didn't know what to say at this time. He opened his mouth, let out a howl, and then there was no more movement.

Everything is scarce in the slums, but there are many vacant houses. There are many empty houses around Dole. They are all houses of dead homeless people or neighbors who have moved to other places. Although it is dark, it is not difficult for Dole, who has lived here since he was a child, to find a new place to live. There is a difference between occupied houses and unoccupied houses, and it is easy to tell them apart.

After tidying up the bed and books, Dolai didn't have much furniture, so he took them and left, and soon found a new place to live.

As for the place he had just abandoned, although he had lived there for seven or eight years, Dolai did not hesitate at all when he moved out.

After moving, he was thinking that Oddo hated him so much, and he was afraid that the matter of Bianchi Mine would be completely ruined tomorrow and he could not go there again.

If he couldn't go to the mine, he would lose his source of livelihood. Dolai felt like he had fallen into hell. He only had three copper coins on him. Even if he survived tomorrow, he would starve to death the day after tomorrow.

"Odo, you will die in my hands sooner or later." Dolai was furious. He now valued the book The Legendary Journey of the Naruye Magic Warrior in his hand more. As long as he could become a warrior, he would kill Odo first.

The new place was almost the same as the previous one, except that it was full of dust. Dust was normal in Duomeng County, which was surrounded by mines. In the middle of the night, Duolai didn't care about it. He just made a bed on the worn wooden board, prepared a doghouse for Oddo, and started to practice sitting posture.

Although the things from hundreds of years ago have become obsolete now, it is at least the only martial arts knowledge that he can learn at present, and he must practice it well, Duolai thought to himself.

Soon, a night passed.

The next morning, Dolai woke up from his sleep and found his legs were sore and numb, as if his blood circulation was blocked. He had maintained the same posture all night last night in order to compete, and now he felt like his legs were not his own.

He wailed in pain, then laid his legs flat and pounded them hard with his hands. After a long time, the numbness and soreness finally went away.

Feeling that he was fine again, Dolai looked at where Oddo was and was shocked to find that Oddo was gone.

Just at this moment, the door opened and Otto poked his furtive head in from outside. When he saw Dole wake up, he immediately came over and licked his face.

Feeling Oddo's enthusiasm for him, Dole breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he didn't run around, it would be fine.

He touched the dog's head and said, "Stay at home and don't run around, or you'll end up as dog meat on someone else's table."

He is going to change a mine today and has to apply for a job in advance.

Duomeng County is surrounded by mines and has a large number of workers. Every morning, the people working in the mines would go out from the city gate and pour into the major mines like a tide. The mines would only dislike the small number of people, not the large number of people. Although Duomeng County is a bit poor, it has a large population, all of whom are people who come from various places to make a living. Moreover, the wages in the mines are very stable, and the miners have never had any problems with their lives.

Of course, poor children like Dolai who have no parents are easily bullied by some people.

Dolai arrived at the city gate, looked at the job recruitment notices around, picked one at random, and ran to the job recruitment location to apply.

Relying on his several years of experience in the Bianchi Mine, the manager easily approved his application. In this way, Dole found a job again and went to work happily.

The name of this mine is Silkworm Pupa. Dolai was led by a gentle-looking manager who arranged a companion for him and then left.

The new partner was a middle-aged man with an older face. His exposed arms were muscular and looked very strong.

After the manager assigned the tasks, he left.

And just like that, a new day began.

The new partner didn't like to talk and only liked to work. Dolai had no choice but to work with him. Fortunately, although he didn't sleep properly all night, he was very energetic. At the end of the day, he could actually keep up with the energetic middle-aged man, Ob, which made Ob look at him with admiration.

However, there was no food in the silkworm pupa mine. Dolai was hungry all day and almost fainted when he got off work. Although there was no food, the salary of silkworm pupae was three copper coins more than Bianchi, plus his original salary was six copper coins a day, so he could earn nine copper coins a day, four copper coins more than in the Bianchi mine. It was still very cost-effective, but he needed to bring his own lunch at noon and in the afternoon.

After returning to the market, I had a hearty meal, but felt a little full. I didn't dare stay outside for long, for fear of being found by Otto. I brought food to the dog Otto and quickly returned to the nest.

Naluye's legendary journey ends at the second posture, and the next step is basic boxing.

The basic boxing techniques have been fixed for thousands of years. Dolai learned this a long time ago. There is nothing to learn. I looked through the contents and found nothing new or interesting, so I just skipped it and read the next article.

The legendary magic warrior Naluye practiced both magic and martial arts. When Duolai opened the back of the book, he saw three big words at first glance: Meditation Method.

He suddenly became excited, this was something that only wizards could learn. He looked down carefully, but suddenly became discouraged, he didn't recognize many of the words, how could he learn it?

With a sigh, Dolai skipped this paragraph again. What he was thinking was, save money quickly to buy a book. Now he earns nine copper coins a day, so he can save about two copper coins a day. A dictionary is about 50 copper coins, so he can save enough in a month.

Thinking of this, he felt helpless.

But after turning it over, he saw another martial art, this time it was a real boxing technique, and Dolai was immediately cheered up.

Cross fist, a low-level fist.

He first took a rough look at it. This style of boxing has a total of twelve moves, most of which are extended versions of the basic boxing techniques. Most of the boxing techniques are defensive in nature, and only one or two are purely offensive moves. The core purpose of this style of boxing is cross block, hand cross block, elbow cross block, shoulder-elbow cross block, elbow-back cross block, leg cross block, and foot cross block. It seems that the defense is taken to the extreme, and the two offensive boxing techniques are cross punch and cross cannon punch, which look quite powerful.
