Cross-pushing martial arts starts from adding points

Chapter 57, Tiger Gang (for further reading)

After refining the two elixirs, Chen Mo felt that the Qi and blood in his body had grown stronger.

He put Shengxue Pill and Strong Blood Pill with him, and immediately started today's visualization.

A few days ago, he sneaked into Wuyue Boxing Gym to take a look, and found that all the brothers and sisters are not in the boxing gym now.

……

The next day, Chen Mo got up from the bed, washed up, and then climbed over the wall and left the hospital. He walked out of the alley and came to a steamed stuffed bun stand on the street.

While he was eating buns and thinking about how to make money, a burly young man with a fierce face walked up to the stall and threw the iron rod in his hand on the table in front of the stall.

Bang!
The loud noise instantly attracted the attention of others, but when they saw the tiger pattern embroidered on the young man's clothes, they immediately looked away in fear.

"Old man, it's time to pay the protection fee for these three days!"

The young man's expression was indifferent, and he glanced at the stall owner with a trace of contempt in his eyes.

"My lord, the Tiger Gang just came to collect the protection fee a few days ago, and it's collecting again today. How can you let me live!"

The stall owner was a middle-aged man with a dark complexion, wearing black linen clothes with oil stains all over them.

Seeing the fierce tiger on the young man's clothes, although he was afraid in his heart, he still couldn't help crying.

"Hmph, our Tiger Gang collects protection fees every three days. This is the rule, unless you don't want to pay here."

The young man said in a cold voice, and immediately stretched out his right hand to pick up the iron rod on the table, but fixed his eyes on the stall owner.

"Oh, how can people live like this!"

Seeing this posture, the stall owner suddenly sighed slightly. If he didn't pay the money immediately, he might not only lose the money in the end, but also inevitably suffer a severe beating.

Thinking of this, the stall owner could only reluctantly take out more than forty copper coins from his pocket and hand them to the young man.

The young man took the copper plate, wiped off the oil stains on it with a handkerchief, and left contentedly with the iron rod.

Seeing this, the stall owner shook his head, and the wrinkles on his face deepened.

"Old man, who is he?"

When Chen Mo saw the young man leaving, he immediately waved, called the stall owner to him, and asked in a low voice.

"He is a member of the Tiger Gang. The Tiger Gang suddenly appeared more than ten days ago. Once it appeared, it integrated all the gangs in the North District. Now is the time when it is in full swing."

The stall owner looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he whispered.

"Appeared more than ten days ago? It can't be such a coincidence, can it?"

Hearing the stall owner's words, Chen Mo's heart skipped a beat.

He took out a few copper coins from his pocket and handed them to the stall owner, then got up and walked lightly, and followed the young man far away.

The young man stopped and walked, and after collecting protection fees from more than a dozen stalls, he stepped into a courtyard in the North District.

Chen Mo glanced at the courtyard, kept the location in mind, then turned and left, planning to check it out at night.

As far as he knew, the Tier [-] Lian Zang of Tiger Martial Arts died in the battle of defending the city. Because of this reason, Tiger Martial Arts lost power in an instant, and several direct disciples directly sold the original land and disappeared.

And after hearing what the stall owner said, the time when the Tiger Gang appeared coincided with the time when several direct disciples of the Tiger Martial Arts Hall disappeared. Perhaps this is not a coincidence.

Now his money is tight, and Tiger Martial Arts had a lot of trouble with him before, maybe this can solve his urgent needs.

Back in the small courtyard, Chen Mo continued to practice the tortoise shell kung fu. Blood-red threads of light spread across his arms and chest. Compared with before, the hard armor formed at this time seemed to turn into substance, giving people an indestructible feeling. Feel.

The time of practice always passed quickly. In a blink of an eye, the sun moved westward, and the sky seemed to be burning with flames. The whole Yuan'an County was dyed red. Another hour, the sun finally set, and a crescent moon hung in the sky.

Chen Mo used the Disguise Technique and the Bone Transfer Technique to change his appearance, and immediately climbed over the wall and left the hospital. According to the memory in his mind, he shuttled back and forth in the alleys. It didn't take long before he came to the courtyard where the youth entered during the day.

With a jump, he immediately turned into a black shadow and entered the courtyard.

There are scattered houses in the courtyard, and in the center of these houses, there is a lobby, which is currently lit, and with Chen Mo's eyesight, he can vaguely see a few figures among them.

Approaching the lobby and finding a hiding place, Chen Mo pricked up his ears to listen, and could vaguely hear the words "Taipingjiao" and "Mingxue Pill". Can't hear clearly either.

"Could it be that the Tiger Gang is related to the Taiping Sect?"

Chen Mo was startled, and immediately held his breath, wanting to hear more clearly.

At this time, a young man wearing a long gown of the Tigers came out of the lobby, holding a tray in his hand with food and wine on it.

Chen Mo stepped lightly, blended into the shadows, and followed behind the young man.

The young man walked out of the lobby without stopping, and walked straight into the garden. It is autumn now, and the flowers in the garden are withered, giving him a sense of desolation.

There is a small rockery in the center of the garden. What surprised Chen Mo was that there were four tiger gangs guarding the rockery around it.

The young man approached the rockery and took out a token from his pocket. The four helpers checked it carefully and confirmed that the token was correct. One of the gangsters walked to the side of the rockery. They didn't know how he operated it. After a while, Just hearing a bang, the rockery split from the middle, and a downward passage appeared.

In the passage, a torch is placed every few steps on the stone wall. At this time, the flame dances to illuminate the passage.

The young man put the tray on the ground, sorted out his clothes, and then picked up the tray again and walked into the aisle.

When the figure of the young man entered the passage, the gang member who opened the passage walked to the side of the rockery again, preparing to close the passage.

Whoosh!
In this gap, Chen Mo's figure twisted, as if turning into a breeze, rushing directly into the passage.

These four were just ordinary gang members, they only felt a breeze blowing by them, and they didn't feel anything else.

Entering the passage, the torch was burning, and the footsteps of the young man in front of him could be heard clearly. Chen Mo stepped as lightly as possible. It didn't take long for this passage to come to an end.

At this time, more than a dozen iron cages appeared in front of Chen Mo. He glanced at them and found that these iron cages were not empty, and seven or eight of them were still locked up.

"This is……"

Chen Mo's gaze suddenly stopped on the third iron cage, because in this iron cage, a thin young man was imprisoned.

Chen Mo was no stranger to this boy's face, he was Chen Mo's sixth senior brother, Li Ren.

Li Ren's hair was disheveled and his white gown was stained with blood. He was leaning against the iron cage, his eyes were dim and his expression was decadent.

Hiding in the dark, Chen Mo did not act rashly.

The young man with the tray didn't take a second look at the iron cages, as if he had already seen the strange things.
