The World of Martial Arts

Chapter 27
Xu Zhengping traveled north all the way, practicing kung fu while walking.

After absorbing Fang Chen's internal energy, he has easily penetrated the Twelve Classics. If he accumulates his internal energy and refines it, he can also penetrate one of the Extraordinary Meridians. The effect produced is naturally stronger.

Putting such a cultivation base on the rivers and lakes, it is at the same level as Zuo Lengchan and others.

As far as he knew, Zuo Lengchan, Jiang Biehe, Jiangnan Four Wonders, Xuedao Patriarch and others were all masters of the same level, and they were already capable of running rampant.

In addition, Xu Zhengping was still practicing the Blood Knife Sutra, he already had the internal strength of the three of Bao Xiang, so there was no need to worry about the internal strength, only the saber technique should be strengthened.

The Blood Knife Sutra needs to be paired with the corresponding Burmese Knife to exert its full power, so Xu Zhengping threw away the big knife he was carrying.

A Miao Dao was rebuilt. The Miao Dao and the Burmese Dao are very similar in structure, but the Miao Dao is a two-handed long sword, while the Burmese Dao is mostly used with one hand and is shorter and lighter.

Xu Zhengping needed to take into account the power of the Five Tigers Chasing Wind Saber, so he chose Miao Dao, so that he could use both Wind Chasing Saber and Blood Saber smoothly.

The Blood Knife Sutra is very difficult to practice, and each pose is drawn with a map, which not only depicts the movements of the external skills, but also includes the routes of the internal skills.

Since this skill requires both internal and external practitioners, each page of the atlas can only be cultivated in place for at least one year. Once the cultivation is successful, it is not only extremely powerful, but also strange and difficult to guard against. The sword can be cut from an extremely unpredictable angle, attracting people Crucial, extremely evil.

At this time Xu Zhengping possessed the internal strength of three disciples of the Blood Knife Sect, so he only needed to practice the content of the external strength, and with half the effort, he had already learned the five-page atlas.

The martial arts on each page of the map here are all evolved from the previous page. They are coherent and can be reversed, making it even more weird.

Just the five-style saber technique, the killing effect it can exert is much more than that of the five tiger chasing wind knives.

This is also the first high-level martial art that Xu Zhengping mastered. Only relying on these five-style saber techniques, coupled with his solid internal strength, he is no longer afraid to fight against a master like Zuo Lengchan.

If he gets Zixia's magical power again, combined with the improvement of Zixia's true energy in all aspects, he is confident that his opponents in the Jiangnan area will be much less.Therefore, he was more eager to get to Huashan along the way.

The road to the north is not peaceful. In today's Daming country, although the south seems to be peaceful and peaceful.

In fact, the northern frontier was caught in many flames of war, and Xu Zhengping was generally aware of the situation through the merchants and people from the rivers and lakes he met along the way.

The history of this world has many similarities with the history he knew in his previous life, the difference lies in the historical events of different time and space, spliced ​​together in a strange form.

For example, the most powerful Ming Dynasty was during the reign of Emperor Jingnan, and its land area was twice as large as that of the Eastern Song Dynasty and Western Song Dynasty combined in the west.

Meng Yuan dared not go south to herd horses, and even the Song Dynasty had to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty to show his submission.

This kind of prosperity lasted until the period of the orthodox emperor. The emperor favored the eunuchs so much that the eunuchs monopolized power.

In the end, the 20 frontier army elites were all wiped out on the Mobei grassland, and Emperor Zhengtong was captured. Meng Yuan immediately led the army to the south, forcibly tearing away the mountains and rivers in the northwest of Daming.

So far, Meng Yuan is still in a strategic offensive situation against Ming Dynasty. Most of the people with lofty ideals in the northwest have joined the Ming religion, and they have always insisted on fighting against the Meng Yuan Tartars.

Great sects such as Wudang Emei were also established in the northwest. Although they opposed Mingjiao, they also secretly supported Anti-Yuan.

Daming also organized a counterattack, but since Emperor Zhengtong was taken into captivity, there have been endless debates and infighting in the country about the throne and orthodoxy.

It wasn't until the ministers elected an illiterate emperor who only liked to have fun in the leopard house, and the cabinet completely controlled the power in the court, that the dispute over orthodoxy was considered to have ceased.

However, taking advantage of this period of internal strife, the Manchu Qing rose in the Northeast, and once again divided the territory and divided the land for thousands of miles, cutting off all the land in the Northeast.

Only Li Zicheng, a hero who was born as a postman, once led hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians to fight against the enemy.

It's a pity that there was no external support, and the peasant army itself had limited combat power. The uprising lasted for nine years, and was finally suppressed bloodily by the Tartars and the gentry.

It was not until now that the Ming court began to deal with the two major forces of the Mongol Yuan and the Manchu Qing, but the cabinet struggle was fierce, and there was only a lot of thunder and little rain.

The captive tax was collected, but the actual number of troops used, and even the strength to support the development of resistance forces in enemy-occupied areas, were very few.

The further north Xu Zhengping went, the worse the people's livelihood in Daming became. Obviously, the pressure on the people in the north was enormous. Many self-cultivating farmers had gone bankrupt and gradually became refugees. This was beneficial to the development of the beggar gang.

It was twenty miles away to Luoyang City, and Xu Zhengping rested at a tea stall by the side of the road.

A steamed bun here is worth ten yuan, and you can buy at least four vegetable and meat buns in Jiangnan for the same money.

It can be seen how far the prices in the Northland have risen, and the quacks who bought steamed buns from the boss are also complaining.

"Good grandson, go over and buy two donkey meat buns for grandpa."

This sounds ordinary, but in today's situation, donkey meat steamed buns are tantamount to sky-high prices.

Xu Zhengping was a little concerned about this, and sat in a corner of the tea stall, glancing at it out of the corner of his eye.

I saw two hunchbacks sitting near the door, one old and one young. They looked tattered and dirty, they didn't look like rich people.

Hearing what the old hunchback said, the young hunchback couldn't help but faltered and said: "Senior, this junior has already asked the boss, even ordinary steamed buns cost ten cents a piece, donkey meat steamed buns, I'm afraid they haven't been sold here yet."

The old hunchback said with a smile, "Why are you pretending to be poor with Grandpa? Others don't know who you are, but don't I, the hunchback?"

The young hunchback panicked, and laughed dryly, "The junior doesn't know what the senior is talking about?"

"The people from the Devil's Cult were looking for you everywhere just now. If you hadn't borrowed my name from Grandpa, I'm afraid Ren Woxing's men would have already captured you. There's no need to pretend."

The more Xu Zhengping listened, the more confused he became, but he knew from the rumors in the world that Ren Woxing acted insanely after he was defeated by Dongfang Bubai and lost one eye.

In order to be able to take revenge, he began to think about the evil swordsmanship of Fuwei Escort.

Before that, Fuwei Escort had been forcibly subdued by him, and he even helped Fuwei Escort to destroy the Qingcheng faction. Originally, he only used Fuwei Escort as a purse.

Now they are living and dying, but they don't care about these decency, and they are very harsh on the Lin family. Lin Zhennan and his wife have died under the torture of me.

Tuliu Lin Pingzhi managed to escape with the help of Ren Yingying and wandered all the way to the north. He must have suffered as much as in the original book.

This time, he should have run into Gao Feng of Saibei Ming Tuomu again, but he was seized by the other party and was about to force him to ask about the evil sword technique.

At this moment, Lin Pingzhi knew that he couldn't pretend, so he suddenly overturned the table and fled to the tea stall.

After Mu Gaofeng dodged, he laughed and said, "Grandson Gui didn't listen to Grandpa, so he needs to be taught a lesson."

As everyone looked at him, he jumped out and easily kicked the fleeing Lin Pingzhi to the ground, stepped on his face with his feet, and pressed him into the dirt.

"Good grandson, why don't you just call the hunchback grandpa honestly, and want to make grandpa angry."
