Chapter 177
In the afternoon, an invitation was delivered to Yixiangzhai.

Hongye opened it and looked at it, raised her eyebrows and said, "Zhai Master, the Miss Wu family has held a cocktail party and invites you to come."

"Is it Wu Hongqiu again..."

Fang Zhixing remained silent for a while, nodded and said, "This is a rare opportunity, go ahead."

Wu Hongqiu is the apple of the eye of the Wu family, the largest small family, and she is obviously a social butterfly in the circle of powerful people.

Through her cocktail party, not only can she get to know many high-ranking people, but she can also have the opportunity to get some inside information.

In short, not everyone is eligible to attend Wu Hongqiu's cocktail party, and Fang Zhixing is a person who is on someone else's high tree.

"You can't be ignorant of praise..."

Fang Zhixing sighed softly and immediately ordered Hongye to prepare an evening dress.

Flickered into the evening.

Fang Zhixing went out on time and took a carriage through the streets.

At this time, almost every place on the streets inside and outside the county town was clean, tidy, orderly, and decorated with lights.

In fact, in the past half month, the inner and outer cities have undergone many renovations and general cleanings.

Just to welcome the arrival of the Qinghe Martial Arts Association.

The people have high expectations for this martial arts event, and the atmosphere in the city is as lively as the Chinese New Year.

Soon, Fang Zhixing arrived at the Wu family's residence, took out the invitation, successfully entered the gate, and went all the way to Wu Hongqiu's courtyard.

Fang Zhixing walked into the hall, looked around, and immediately found that there were far more people coming to the reception this time than the last time.

The hall was almost overcrowded, noisy and extremely lively.

The people he had met last time, such as Peng Haolin, Xue Nanjie, Feng Xingkan and others, were all present.

They were in groups, chatting and laughing.

For a while, not many people noticed Fang Zhixing's arrival.

Fang Zhixing didn't take it seriously and walked to the long table, picked up a wine bottle, walked to the wall, and drank quietly.

He pricked up his ears and listened to the chatter.

"This martial arts competition is particularly grand. The number of participants is more than double that of the one three years ago."

"I heard that it was all caused by the Wu Meng. The people from the Wu Meng have always been dissatisfied with the powerful families. They are aggressive and want to be in the limelight."

"Hmph, those people in the Martial Alliance are just a bunch of trash who don't know their own abilities. Someone will teach them how to behave soon."

……

Several young men and women nearby chatted with each other.

Fang Zhixing paused for a while and then turned his attention to the other side.

"Let me tell you, the number one spot in this martial arts competition definitely belongs to Miss Luo Qianqian. If she doesn't get the first place, I will stand on my head and eat shit."

"Gungun, you want to eat and drink together again, don't you?"

"There is no doubt about Miss Luo Qianqian's personal strength. I heard that she has also prepared a set of level three weapons. She is indeed the favorite to win the championship."

"Hey, are you looking down on Mr. Tian Taixing? He is also one of the best among men. He is a genius."

"Yes, don't forget that there is also the representative of the Martial Alliance, what is his name?"

As I was listening, a faint fragrance suddenly drifted over.

Fang Zhixing turned his head and looked around, and couldn't help but cheer up.

Wu Hongqiu came over, and beside him was an extraordinary young man, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and a tall body.

"I've met Miss Wu." Fang Zhixing bowed casually.

Wu Hongqiu raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Master Fang Zhai, there are a lot of people here today. If there is any inconvenience in hospitality, please bear with me."

Fang Zhixing continued: "Fang is a commoner. It's a great honor to come to your cocktail party. I don't dare to ask for too much."

Wu Hongqiu nodded lightly and introduced: "This is Mr. Lu Yu. He is a representative sent by the Martial Alliance to participate in the Qinghe Martial Arts Association."

Fang Zhixing raised his eyebrows, and his surprise was beyond words.

Seeing this, Lu Yu cupped her hands and smiled: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not a rebel."

Wu Hongqiu also burst into laughter and explained carefully: "The Wu Meng is actually a huge and fragmented organization. Most of the members of the Wu Meng just want to practice martial arts and have no intention of rebellion. Only a very few members of the Wu Meng are ambitious. , trying to subvert the world and seek power and usurp the throne."

Lu Yu nodded and said: "The Martial Alliance has already severed ties with those rebellious people and accepted the imperial court's offer."

Fang Zhixing suddenly came to his senses.

Good guy!
The senior officials of the Ganqing Martial Alliance were not stupid. They knew that they could not defeat the powerful family, so they used the slope to recruit them.

Kneel down quite quickly!
The best destination for Liangshan heroes is indeed to work in a system with five insurances and one housing fund.

Fang Zhixing felt that his visit today was not in vain. It was really a knife in the ass and an eye-opener.

After chatting for a few words, Wu Hongqiu and Lu Yu turned around and left to receive other guests one by one.

"Ouch, Mr. Tian!"

"Really or not, Tian Taixing is here too!"

Soon, an exclamation suddenly sounded at the gate, causing everyone to look at him.

I saw a handsome and majestic young man breaking into the hall, walking like a dragon and a tiger, standing high in the sky, giving people a sense of majesty.

He held his hands in front of everyone and smiled and said: "Tian has met all of my friends, I am disrespectful and disrespectful."

For a time, many people flocked to him, bowed their heads and fawned over him in various ways.

"Oh, Mr. Nitai's son is really becoming more and more high-profile."

"Hmm, I heard that because of the successive years of famine in our Qinghe County, the people were displaced and uprisings continued, the imperial court was very dissatisfied with the county governor."

"Yes, Mr. Nedai represents the will of the imperial court. There are rumors that Mr. Nedai has been collecting evidence of the county governor's crimes and has continuously written to the court to investigate the county governor's corruption, dereliction of duty and other major crimes."

"Once the imperial court demotes the county guard, Qinghe County will change hands. It will no longer belong to the Luo family and may fall into the hands of the other three powerful families."

"The Luo family is one of the four great families in Danzhou, and Qinghe County is only one of the Luo family's spheres of influence. But if the Luo family loses Qinghe County, it will not cause much harm, but it will be extremely insulting."

……

Several people lowered their heads and whispered in the corner.

When Fang Zhixing heard this, an ominous premonition suddenly emerged in his heart.

"Unexpectedly, the struggle between Nie Tai and the county governor has already come to light."

Fang Zhixing couldn't help but think that if the county guard was dismissed and investigated, Luo Keji would definitely suffer as well. Then he would...

The reception became more and more lively.

After Tian Taixing and Lu Yu met, they were polite, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was particularly harmonious, giving people a feeling of cherishing each other since they met late.

Then some people speculated that Tian Taixing and Lu Yu might have joined forces to deal with Luo Qianqian together.

"Well, now there's something good to watch."

Fang Zhixing drinks wine leisurely and eats melon calmly.

The night was getting darker.

Fang Zhixing returned to Yixiangzhai.

As soon as the person arrived, Xigou rushed towards him and said dissatisfied: "It's such a big deal to have a banquet, why don't you take me with you?"

Fang Zhixing rolled his eyes and said scornfully: "Dog meat cannot be served at the banquet, you are not worthy."

The thin dog suddenly bared his teeth and said angrily: "You are a solitary eater. You have a bad conscience. Sooner or later the dog will eat you."

Fang Zhixing snorted, put his thumb on the sword, and sneered: "You want to eat, right? How about I make a dog meat feast for you now? Come on, come on, create a shadow clone."

Xigou immediately glanced at Fang Zhixing's system panel.

[4. Anatomy of a life of the same level...] ​​"Rough!"

Xigou was instantly terrified and ran away, saying urgently: "I am a second-level alien beast, not on the same level as you."

Fang Zhixing snorted, his eyes fell on the system panel, and he muttered: "Perhaps conditions 1 and 4 can be solved together."

Condition 1 is to hunt level 4 alien beasts, condition [-] is to dissect level [-] alien beasts, perfect fit.

Doing the two tasks together will kill two birds with one stone.

The next day, good news came from Fengyin Pavilion.

The whereabouts of the "Eight-clawed Sky Spider" have been found.

Fang Zhixing rushed to Fengyin Pavilion immediately.

The white-bearded old man warmly received him and introduced with a smile: "We found out that these eight-clawed spiders are actually a very ferocious alien beast with a fourth-level bloodline. When they reach adulthood, they become terrifying fourth-level spiders." Strange beasts can destroy a city in an instant."

Fang Zhi knew what was going on and responded: "I don't need to hunt the fourth-level eight-clawed spider. Where can I find the third-level one?"

The old man replied: "In the huge Qinghe County, there is only one level four restricted area, and only that restricted area contains the Eight-clawed Sky Spider."

"Level [-] restricted area!!"

Fang Zhixing couldn't help but feel awe in his heart. With his current strength, he still couldn't cross the third-level restricted area, let alone the more dangerous fourth-level restricted area.

The old man observed his words and said with a smile: "Master, I kindly remind you that this Eight-clawed Spider is a gregarious beast. There are very likely many third-level or even fourth-level similar species living near the third-level Eight-clawed Spider.

If you don't have the strength of the Nine Ox Realm, I really don't recommend that you venture into the fourth-level restricted area. "

Fang Zhixing frowned and said nothing, his mind racing.

The old man was silent for a moment, then suddenly suggested: "If you have connections, you might as well hire a Jiu Niu realm expert to be your bodyguard."

Fang Zhixing smiled bitterly and said: "In Qinghe County, Jiuniu Realm is the top combat force, right? They are all noble people. Who would be willing to be driven by others for a few stinky money?"

The old man nodded repeatedly and said with a smile: "That's right, I'm presumptuous."

Fang Zhixing thought for a while and asked again: "Does the Eight-clawed Sky Spider have any weaknesses?"

The old man continued: "I haven't heard of the weaknesses, but their advantages are staggering."

Fang Zhixing said oh, raised his ears and listened carefully.

The old man explained carefully: "The silk spun out by the third-level Eight-clawed Spider is extremely tough and sharp, and it is difficult to cut with a second-level weapon. If someone is accidentally scratched and pulled by the spider silk, his skin and flesh will be torn apart.

In addition, the amount of silk they spin is amazing. During battles, they can spin silk and form webs anytime and anywhere, setting up a dragnet so that prey has nowhere to escape. "

Fang Zhixing frowned and said in surprise: "Why does it sound more and more like the Luo family's ancestral magic technique, the Tianluo Secret Sutra?"

"Whoa!"

The old man slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "Master, you guessed it right. There have been rumors that the ancestors of the Luo family understood the "Tianluo Secret Sutra" from the eight-clawed Tianluo spider."

Fang Zhixing couldn't help but think that it was true.

Also, the attack effect of Tianluo Divine Palm is to cut the target into thousands or hundreds of pieces, which is indeed like the silk-cutting effect of the Eight-clawed Tianluo Spider.

He couldn't help but ask one more question, "Have you ever heard of the "Tianluo Sacred Blood Book"? This technique also has the word "Tianluo". Is it related to the "Tianluo Secret Sutra"?

The old man thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I can't say, it may be possible. I have to check it first. Do you want to investigate?"

Fang Zhixing was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "I just asked casually. Please concentrate your efforts first and help me investigate the other two things as soon as possible."

"it is good!"

The old man didn't care and agreed happily.

Fang Zhixing returned to Yixiangzhai, took out the latest map, and spread it out on the table.

The fourth-level restricted area is located 380 miles west of the county town and is called the "Wind and Thunder Exclusion Zone".

"If you want to safely break into the fourth-level restricted area, you must be fully prepared..."

Fang Zhixing thought hard and quickly thought of two ways to improve his strength.

First, complete condition 3 first and integrate the second series of exercises.

Second, forge or purchase a level three weapon.

"Well, condition 4 can actually be done first..."

Fang Zhixing only needed to make a trip to the Agate restricted area to hunt down the third-level exotic beast and complete an autopsy.

Just as he was thinking about it, Hongye came over and said softly: "Master, the Qinghe Martial Arts Tournament will be held tomorrow. Will you go to watch the battle?"

Fang Zhixing raised his head and said that he was actually not that interested in the Qinghe Martial Arts Association. He wanted to focus on completing tasks and improving his strength.

However, the Qinghe Martial Arts Association involves an open and covert fight between the county guard and Naitai, which may also affect him.

"Well, the Qinghe Martial Arts Tournament is only held for one day anyway, so let's go and join in the fun." He quickly made a calculation in his mind.

Hongye couldn't help but be overjoyed and said with a smile: "The slave family also wants to watch the battle."

"Okay, I'll take you with me tomorrow."

Only then will you know that there is nothing you can't do.

It was the next day in a blink of an eye!
This morning, the wind was warm and the sun was beautiful.

There were loud gongs and drums and firecrackers inside and outside the county town, creating a festive and peaceful festival atmosphere.

The Qinghe Martial Arts Competition will be held today. Countless geniuses will gather together, and all the heroes will compete for the top spot.

Fang Zhixing got up early and headed to the Qingshui River with his thin dog and Hongye.

They set off not too late. However, when they arrived at Qingshui River...

Looking around, we can see that there are huge crowds of people on the river bank. It is so crowded with people.

It's so grand!

In fact, many people came to reserve seats in the middle of the night yesterday.

Fang Zhixing didn't care who got the seat first. He spent some money and bought a very front viewing spot from one person.

On the river, two large nets were pulled up across the entire river at a distance of 1000 meters.

Three large fishing boats came from upstream and released a large number of "shallow water swordfish" between two large nets.

Afterwards, ten warships sailed slowly from upstream and lined up on the river.

Fang Zhixing's eyes narrowed, and then he saw a figure appearing on the largest warship, and it was Luo Keji.

Luo Keji stood at the bow of the ship, commanding the warship with high spirits.

There is a beautiful woman beside him. You don't need to guess, she is the eldest lady Dong Minzhu.

This is not over yet!

Two more people appeared behind Luo Keji, one of whom was Luo Rujie, the commander of the Wolf Cavalry.

As for the other person...

Fang Zhixing took a breath, with an incredible expression on his face.

The man was very tall, reaching a height of three meters.

He stood in the crowd like a giant, standing out from the crowd and arrogant.

"Giant soldiers..."

Knowing the market situation, he couldn't help but tremble, and he suddenly remembered a detail.

During his time at the Zhubing Hall in Qinglin County, he once saw a kind of armor. The length of the breastplate was more than 1.5 meters, which was exaggerated.

He never knew who the large armor was for.

At this moment, he finally realized that it was a giant armor!
"My lord, there are actually giants in this ancient martial arts world!"

Fang Zhixing was amazed and amazed.
