Sweeping the world

Chapter 16 Black Yanshan

"Brother Lu, I want to ask."

Sticking his head out of the carriage, looking at Lu Liang riding a horse in the distance with a smile on his face, Chen Ming smiled, and then said: "If I want to master martial arts, I should worship under an elder in Yueshan ?”

"Xiwu?" Lu Liang was stunned, as if he didn't expect Chen Ming to ask this question.

But without hesitating for long, he just pondered for a while, and then he said: "As far as I know, there are eight elders on Mount Yue, of which the three elders are the most prestigious."

"These three elders are Elder Lu Qi, Elder Zhang Li, and Elder Song Jue."

Speaking of this, he paused, then looked at Chen Ming in front of him, and continued to speak: "Among them, Elder Lu is good at using knives, and Elder Zhang is good at using fists. They are both well-known outsiders in Longshui County."

"As for the last Elder Song, he is a master of the inner family, and his path is different from that of Elder Lu."

"Do you still divide martial arts into inner and outer families?" Looking at Lu Liang in front of him, Chen Ming was a little surprised.

"Of course." Lu Liang smiled, looked at Chen Ming and explained: "The so-called foreign masters mainly focus on exercising their muscles and bones and polishing their bodies. They are often fierce and overwhelm others with force."

"The masters of the inner family temper the blood energy and train the essence energy internally to breed internal energy and drive the body to become stronger."

"Then which of the two is stronger?" Sitting on the carriage, listening to Lu Liang's words, Chen Ming frowned, and then subconsciously asked.

"It's not easy to say." Lu Liang shook his head: "The strength of the inner family and the outer family can only be determined by the specific person. Top masters can emerge from both."

"But generally speaking, the speed of becoming a talent is faster for those who practice outsiders. As long as you get started and practice for three or four years, you will be almost decent. But once you reach the age of four or fifty, your strength will continue to decline. If you are young If you leave the root cause of the disease, I am afraid that you will be paralyzed in bed for the rest of your life."

"Those who practice internal energy develop later, but they maintain it for a long time. Sometimes they can still maintain their strength when they are seven or eighty years old, and if their internal energy has been trained to a certain level, they can also prolong their lifespan."

Lu Liang said in this way: "But if possible, it is better to cultivate both internal and external."

"Can you cultivate both internal and external?" Chen Ming was stunned.

"Of course it's possible, but it's very difficult." Lu Liang shook his head, and then said: "Inner strength is no better than outer strength. It requires a lot of talent to practice, and there is also a requirement for age."

"People who are too old to practice internal strength often can't even develop a sense of Qi."

He shook his head, he didn't know what he thought of, he felt a little lost for no reason, then he looked at Chen Ming in front of him: "I'm already late, but Chang'an, you are only fourteen this year, maybe you can still try."

"Thank you, brother, for your guidance." Chen Ming nodded seriously, and thanked Lu Liang in front of him.

"You don't need to thank me." Lu Liang waved his hand, and a smile appeared on his face again: "Speaking of which, Chang'an, you have helped me a lot this time."

"Huh?" Chen Ming was a little puzzled, and looked at Lu Liang inexplicably.

"When I went down the mountain before, I specially wrote a letter to report to Elder Lu."

Riding on the horse, looking at Chen Ming, Lu Liang smiled and said, "Elder Lu has something important to do, so he can't come here, but he heard that you went down the mountain with me, so in order to ensure your safety, he sent someone to send it to me." I bought some things, let me take his token to mobilize the guards in Longshui, and go on the road together."

"In fact, most of the people in our team are members of Elder Lu."

Looking at Chen Ming, he said frankly, without any intention of hiding anything.

On the opposite side, listening to Lu Liang's words, Chen Ming subconsciously turned around and looked around.

At this moment, around the convoy, some knights on horseback quietly followed the convoy, without saying a word.

These knights were wearing armor, each of them was wearing black leather armor, and there was no chatter between the convoy, just silently following around the convoy, quietly following the convoy forward.

Judging by the rigorous style of these knights, they don't look like escorts who walk darts all the year round, but like an army.

Before, Chen Ming always thought that these people were recruited by Lu Liang himself, but he didn't expect that Lu Qi specially sent them to ensure his safety.

Thinking of this, he shook his head, feeling a little complicated for a moment: "How is Uncle Lu doing now?"

"He's not in Longshui County now." On the side, Lu Liang replied, "Something happened in Nanping County. Yue Shan received an invitation from the governor of Nanping County, so he sent Elder Lu to solve it. I believe it will end soon."

"Generally speaking, you will be able to see him in two or three months at most."

"I hope that by then, Uncle Lu won't chase me with a knife." Chen Ming shook his head, feeling a little embarrassed for a moment.

Before Lu Qi left, he had been told several times not to go down the mountain.

But only half a month after the other party left, he went down the mountain with Lu Liang, especially when Lu Qi knew about it.

"Uncle Lu should be very angry."

Shaking his head lightly, Chen Ming thought in his heart.

As thoughts drifted by, the time in front of me passed by, and soon it was late at night.

late at night.

Taking advantage of the time when the convoy stopped and was stationed outside, Chen Ming got off the carriage and walked slowly to his own tent.

Source power: 4.91.

Martial arts: Linyuan knife technique (can be improved).

At this moment, after a day's journey, through the double bonus of Lu Liang and Xie Dao, in just one day, Chen Ming's source power has increased to this point.

"promote!"

Quietly looking at the source power panel in front of him, Chen Ming shouted in his heart without any hesitation.

A little bit of purple light began to flicker, and a slight change began to take place in Chen Ming's body, causing his aura to change suddenly, from the original silent and restrained, to suddenly becoming heroic.

In just an instant, it seemed as if more than ten years had passed on his body, and his whole body began to change at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Inside the clothes, every inch of skin was blooming with heat, and his originally thin physique suddenly became stronger, as if he had been exercising for countless years.

Source Power: 0.33
Martial Arts: Linyuan Swordsmanship

"Finally. The fourth level of Linyuan sword technique"

Standing silently in the tent, Chen Ming quietly raised his hand and looked at his palm.

At this moment, his palm didn't look much different from before, it looked slender and white, and he didn't look like a martial artist at all, but looked like a weak scholar.

But under the appearance of this weak scholar, there is an unimaginable terrifying power hidden.

"The current me, if you exclude factors such as battle experience, I don't know if I can match Uncle Lu in terms of physical fitness alone."

Standing in the tent, this thought flashed through Chen Ming's mind.

There are only four levels of Linyuan sword technique, and now Chen Ming has already practiced it to the top.

If there is no accident for Lu Qi, he should be at this level at most.

"It should be worse."

After thinking for a while, he thought to himself.

His Linyuan sword technique was completely improved by relying on his own ability, and it was only the level that Linyuan knife technique should have after it has been perfected.

But Lu Qi, who has indulged in this sword technique for many years, must be stronger than him.

What's more, although Lu Qi is famous for his knives, he may not have practiced other body forging methods.

"It's better to find a few more cheat books. It's best to find the secret book of internal strength."

Thinking about what Lu Liang said during the day, this thought flashed in Chen Ming's mind.

At this time, the sky outside was getting darker. Chen Ming thought for a while, then put down the long knife, and slowly fell into a deep sleep.

Time passed slowly.

After more than half a month, the convoy slowly walked along a long road and came to a wilderness.

"If you walk this road, you will be out of Longshui County."

Riding on the road, looking at the towering peaks in the distance, Lu Liang smiled and said, "Did you see the mountain in front? It's Heiyan Mountain, and it's also our goal this time."

At the side, Chen Ming rode a white horse and followed Lu Liang silently.

For more than half a month, under Lu Liang's teaching, he also barely learned to ride a horse and was able to get off the carriage.

"If there is no accident, several of my friends are already waiting there."

Riding at the forefront of the team, looking at the huge mountain peaks that can already be seen ahead, Lu Liang said so.

As time passed, the team continued to move forward slowly, and they didn't reach their destination this time, a small village that looked a little remote, until it was almost dusk.

"Brother Lu, you are late this time!"

When the convoy walked outside the village, a voice suddenly came from afar.

Chen Ming looked up and saw several people were already waiting at the end of the village.

It was a large group of people dressed in black, most of them were wearing standard black military uniforms, they looked like they came from the same place.

There were more than a dozen people in this group, and two tall middle-aged men led them.

"Brother Liu, Brother Zhang!"

Riding at the front of the convoy, Lu Liang raised his head when he heard the sound, and then rode forward with a smile on his face: "Long time no see, how are you two?"

"Not bad."

In front, seeing Lu Liang approaching him, a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance and a strong and strong body also smiled, and then looked down at Chen Ming behind Lu Liang, with some doubts in his eyes: "This yes?"

"This is Uncle Lu's Gaodi, and he is as close as a nephew to Uncle Lu."

With a smile on his face, Lu Liang looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and said, "I'm going down the mountain this time, and I'll bring him down to see the world."

Hearing what he said, the middle-aged man showed a little disapproval on his face, but he looked at Chen Ming and smiled and said: "Young people should see more about the world, otherwise they will suffer a lot when they go down the mountain if they just concentrate on practicing martial arts. "

"Come on, junior brother, let me introduce you."

Lu Liang smiled, looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, and introduced to Chen Ming: "This is Zhang Qiu, the stele breaker. His palm technique is famous for Longshui, and he is a first-class master."

"As for this one, Liu Bao, nicknamed Chang Bao, is Brother Zhang's sworn brother, and he is also a first-class expert."

He spoke to a person behind Zhang Qiu.

Following his guidance, Chen Ming looked forward.

It was a young man who looked very taciturn. He looked about 30 years old. He was standing silently behind Zhang Qiu at the moment. He seemed taciturn and didn't talk much.

Seeing Lu Liang introducing himself, he just smiled and didn't say a word.
