Chapter 22 Bad news

The next day.

"Master Qin, this is what the owner ordered me to send."

Just after going to the cafeteria to have breakfast, the old housekeeper of the martial arts hall brought people here.

What he sent was exactly the monthly resources of the martial arts school, 30 taels of silver, plus three qi and blood pills.

"Thank you!"

When Qin Yuan saw the Qi and Blood Pill, an idea suddenly popped up in his heart.

Since the seedlings of the magic tree absorb energy or origin, then these valuable Qi and blood pills...

"Young Master Qin, if you have anything to do in the future, just tell us."

Behind the old butler, the servant who used to be in charge of the handyman warriors also had a respectful face.

To be honest, Qin Yuan, the golden phoenix, actually flew out of the handyman warriors, which he did not expect.

In the past, they missed the opportunity to curry favor, so they can only take advantage of the present to get closer.

"Speaking of which, I do have some things that I want to inquire about."

Qin Yuan heard the words and said.

"Master Qin, please tell me."

The old butler said.

"Has the price of goods in the city increased greatly recently?"

Qin Yuan asked about this.

Of course, what he really wants to know is not the price, but whether the source of the price increase is caused by the rebels.

If the rebel army really approached Gu Yunzhou, even if he was noticed, he would have to improve his cultivation with all his strength.

"Although not all resources have risen, the prices of most of them have risen a lot, especially the increase in food and the like."

"However, our martial arts school has a special channel, so it will not be affected."

The old housekeeper who was in charge of the affairs of the martial arts school was the most sensitive to rising prices.

"Could it be that, as rumored by the outside world, the rebels are coming?"

Qin Yuan asked solemnly.

"Young master, don't worry, it's just some thieves who took the opportunity to make trouble."

"The state government has ordered that all the counties and cities send out city guards to eliminate the turmoil in their surroundings. In other places, the Golden Sword Guards will be responsible for calming down."

"Thinking about it, the turmoil will soon stabilize."

The old butler smiled, not worried about it.

After hearing this, Qin Yuan thanked him and left.

In this case, there is no need to change his training plan.

Three months of training, and strive to refine the bones before the end of the year, practice martial arts, and become a real warrior.

Arriving at the second floor of the Martial Pavilion, Qin Yuan began to practice.

In the morning and afternoon, Qin Yuan only consumed 4 points of origin.

But at night, Qin Yuan's consumption rate increased sharply, at least 8 to 10 o'clock.

Martial Court is because there are too many people, and the recovery ability cannot be too frequent.

But when he returned to his residence, no one paid attention.

Naturally, Qin Yuan could practice without intervals.

ten days later.

In the evening, Qin Yuan left again with the seedlings of the magic tree.

It took ten taels of silver to buy forty to fifty catties of fish, which made the seedlings of the magic tree soar to make up for the consumption of these ten days.

This time, Qin Yuan didn't meet Zhang Baimu, and nothing happened.

……

That's it, step by step.

Two months passed quietly.

During the white dew season, the weather gradually cools down and is no longer so hot.

The second floor of Wu Pavilion.

"call!"

Qin Yuan, who was covered in hot sweat, was breathing heavily.

[Cultivation: Zhou's Body Tempering Method Seventh Form 75%]

Compared with the initial 6% two months ago, it can be described as a leap forward, with an average daily progress of 1.15%.

In this way, Qin Yuan's goal of perfect muscle training in three months will be successfully achieved.

"Qin Yuan!"

Just after walking down the second floor, Huang Yunfei was waiting there.

"What happened?"

Seeing Huang Yunfei's serious expression, Qin Yuan asked after wiping off his sweat.

"Brother Zheng is dead!"

Huang Yunfei said.

"Senior Brother Zheng Erzhu?!"

Qin Yuan was taken aback.

A few months ago, Zheng Erzhu had just graduated from the martial arts school, and now, there was news of his death? !
This world is too dangerous, right?

"No, isn't Brother Zheng in the city? How could he die?"

Qin Yuan came back to his senses.

A martial artist who can leave the martial arts hall is at the blood refining level at the very least. As for the disciples of the fifth level of body refining, even if they leave the martial arts hall, they cannot be called as apprentices.

"I've also heard about this. Brother Zheng joined the Shahu Gang in the west of the city."

"Last night, the Shahu Gang and the Golden Wolf Gang broke out due to a fire at gambling houses and other sites. Brother Zheng died of his injuries."

At this time, Zhou Junwu, who was full of vigor and blood, came over and told the inside story.

"Gang fire? Dare to kill people in the martial arts hall?"

Qin Yuan was a little hard to understand.

A gang that can gain a foothold in the city should know the background of Zhou's martial arts school.

Under such circumstances, it is a bit weird to dare to kill.

You must know that Zhou's Martial Arts Hall is not just a martial arts hall, but has a close relationship with the state capital.

Qin Yuan and other mountain village children don't know about these things, but the forces in the city should be aware of them, right?
"In the fight of life and death, either you die or I die, who cares where you are from."

"Besides, the martial arts school has always been neutral, and will not care about those trivial matters. Maybe they will mediate, but they will not help anyone."

Huang Yunfei said.

If they fight together, the two sides may still be able to calm down, but once they make a move, they will only be standing and lying down.

When Qin Yuan heard it, he also understood.

People who walked out of the martial arts hall either joined the bodyguard bureau, joined the gang, or joined the rich clan as guards.

Maybe some hostile forces have martial arts disciples, so how can the martial arts help them?

Therefore, staying neutral and not interfering is the best decision for the martial arts school.

"It was hard to get out of the martial arts school, but ended up going to the gang Huo Bing..."

Zhou Junwu shook his head slightly, turned and left.

Obviously, he looked down upon Zheng Erzhu's behavior of joining the gang.

In his opinion, even becoming a bodyguard in a wealthy family is better than being a gangster.

Qin Yuan was not surprised by Zhou Junwu's attitude.

As a genius of the Zhou family, he naturally doesn't know the suffering at the bottom.

Similarly, Qin Yuan can understand Zheng Erzhu's decision to join the gang.

Coming from a poor background, with no background connections, and wanting to go further in martial arts, joining a gang is the fastest way to obtain resources and money.

Moreover, after Zheng Erzhu, there may be family members to support, so the pressure is even greater.

In this world, not everyone has a choice!
"I heard that after the two major gangs merged, the bodies were thrown into mass graves outside the city, so I plan to take someone to build a grave for Senior Brother Zheng. Qin Yuan, what do you think?"

Huang Yunfei opened his mouth and told the reason why he was waiting for Qin Yuan here.

Zheng Erzhu had no relatives or friends in the city, and it was impossible for those gangs to send the body back on purpose.

Therefore, they are generally simply buried in mass graves outside the city, and some are even thrown there directly to feed the beasts that come and go at night.

"Okay, I'll go too."

Qin Yuan nodded.

Not to mention, although Huang Yunfei was born as a young master, he is very loyal.

After going back to take a shower and change clothes, Qin Yuan came to the Martial Arts Field of the Inner Mansion, and the martial arts disciples Huang Yuanfei notified were coming one after another.

Those martial arts disciples more or less have some friendship with Zheng Erzhu, or have been taught by Zheng Erzhu.

After a brief acquaintance, a group of people came to the gate of Dongcheng. The people hired by Huang Yunfei were already waiting there, and the coffin and wooden signs were all available.

After leaving the city gate, everyone headed towards the mass graves in the wilderness.

After about half a stick of incense, a very unpleasant smell came.

Even Qin Yuan and others who were born in a mountain village couldn't help covering their noses.

That kind of smell includes burning smell, rancid smell, and indescribable mixed smell, which is called a sour taste.

"Someone?"

A disciple of the inner palace suddenly made a sound.

I saw that there were still people haunting the mass graves that were overgrown with weeds and surrounded by piles of graves.

After looking carefully, I found that those people were all in tattered clothes, with hunched bodies and earthy faces, rummaging for something from time to time.

"refugee!"

Huang Yunfei said that these are homeless refugees who make a living by begging, and they came to rummage in mass graves, probably to try their luck.
