Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 449
"My father-in-law, there is no need to be like this. If it weren't for this matter, I really wouldn't have known that the Jianghu people in our country were so arrogant."

Zhao Kang laughed, took a new cup and poured a cup of tea.He has been in Pingcheng for five days and spent ten taels of silver to rent this small courtyard.

Fang Shao took the tea cup and sighed: "This is also foreseeable. To be honest with you, the Imperial Master, since you let the old slave take charge of the Jin Yiwei."

"The old slave has thought about integrating the forces of the rivers and lakes and using these warriors who usually fight and kill in the rivers and lakes as his own. This period has been quite effective and has won over many warriors. Although their realms are not high, they are still It’s worth a use.”

"I'm afraid someone with some intentions has noticed this, so they want to use Zheng Xuan's incident as an excuse."

Zhao Kang crossed his legs and shook his fan: "My father-in-law, have you ever thought that there might be people from other countries adding fuel to the flames?"

Fang Shao couldn't help being stunned, and said in surprise: "What did the Imperial Master say?"

"You must not have the intention to harm others, but you must have the intention to guard against others. The forces of the Jianghu may seem inconspicuous on weekdays, but they can kill people at critical moments. For example, Prince Ning's first floor?"

Fang Shao was so frightened that he couldn't sit still when he heard this. Prince Ning's first floor almost killed Her Majesty the Empress and Zhao Kang on the battlefield.

"calm down."

Seeing Fang Shao's reaction so violently, Zhao Kang closed his fan and said, "It is precisely because of the precedent of the First Floor that I must firmly control the Jianghu forces in our Qian Kingdom."

"The National Master has a far-sighted vision!"

Fang Shao hurriedly asked: "What should the Imperial Master do? Is there any old slave who can help?"

"Of course, inviting father-in-law here is a request." Zhao Kang no longer looked frivolous when talking about serious matters.

Fang Shao said politely: "The Imperial Master's words are serious, but it doesn't matter."

"As my father-in-law knows, I have become a monk halfway through martial arts and martial arts matters. In the past, I didn't have much interest in martial arts matters."

Zhao Kang asked thoughtfully: "Have we had any famous top masters in the past hundred years? Not to mention the powerful men in the terrifying realm of the second grade, are there any third grade ones?"

Jing Guo didn't talk about Wu Rulong, the number one master with unparalleled combat power, but the former Ye Hongxue, the current Martial King Wu Tianhu, and the two ministers who had followed Zhao Kang to help Qian Guo.

There are four third-level masters alone!
There are also many masters from Zhou and Qi, including the two third-level masters that Ye Hongxue killed in the ring.

And Bai Wugou and Feng Tianguan, who killed him on the battlefield.

Although a strong man of this level would not be a loser on the street, it is enough to show that the martial arts background of Zhou and Qi is stronger than that of Qian.

In the Qian Kingdom, apart from Her Majesty the Empress, who is a fourth-level powerhouse, Mr. Lin, whom Zhao Kang knows, and Fang Shao in front of him are also at this level.

Apart from Prince Ning and Lu Xueying, who was killed by him, the only third-level strong men were Feng Bao, the original eunuch chief.

He died on the battlefield to save himself, leaving no trace of his body.

Compared with other countries, the quantity and quality of Qian Kingdom's warriors seem to be a bit inferior.

Zhao Kang knew that experts like Fang Shao, in addition to guarding the safety of the palace, would actually leave the palace from time to time to walk in the rivers and lakes.

Therefore, I would like to ask Fang Shao, has there ever been a top figure like the Xuanyuan Bubai mentioned by Wu Rulong and others in the Qian Kingdom in recent years?

According to Wu Rulong, Xuanyuan Bubai was so powerful that he created the Xuanhuang Gong he practiced.

Hear the words.Fang Shao said with some embarrassment: "The Imperial Master really thinks highly of our Qian Kingdom. Not to mention the second and third levels, the fourth level can already be said to be the top powerhouse in our Qian Kingdom."

"Tsk tsk, isn't it that bad? So I can be considered a top expert?" Zhao Kang joked.

Fang Shao couldn't laugh or cry: "It's really what you said, Imperial Master. The old slave entered the palace at the age of nine and was favored by the seniors in the palace to teach him martial arts. It has been 54 years now."

Looking quite nostalgic, Fang Shao said: "Although the old slave has spent most of his time in the palace these years, he still travels to the rivers and lakes every two years, both to practice and to deal with some evil spirits that the government cannot catch. only."

"In the past hundred years, there really hasn't been any extremely powerful person in the world. Maybe there is, but it's also possible that he is hiding in the mountains and wilderness and concentrating on cultivating without caring about worldly affairs."

Zhao Kang couldn't help but feel embarrassed after hearing this. He didn't expect the Jianghu people in Qian Country to be so rubbish. Could it be that he had to make one up himself?
This is too unconvincing.

Suddenly, Fang Shao thought of something and exclaimed: "National Master!"

"What did father-in-law think of?" Zhao Kang asked.

Fang Shao showed a look of recollection: "When I first entered the palace, the master who taught me martial arts seemed to have told me a secret. He said that there was a gap in our Qianguo martial arts! It seemed that he was killed by one person .”

Zhao Kang suddenly became interested: "Kill the fault line! Who can be so arrogant? Father-in-law, think carefully."

Fang Shao thought: "I remember what my master said back then. About 200 years ago, the martial arts of our Qian Kingdom was actually no worse than that of Jing Kingdom. At that time, there was a ranking of the top ten masters. The old man said that the lowest ones on the list were all in the third grade. The top strong man in the middle class.”

"Is it credible?" Zhao Kang asked.

Fang Shao nodded: "It shouldn't be wrong. My master was 72 years old when he taught me."

"Calculating the time, it was at least 120 years ago when he learned martial arts."

"What happened next?" Zhao Kang said.

Fang Shao thought while saying: "According to what his old man said, the forces in the world at that time were much more powerful than they are now, and top masters emerged one after another."

"But at that time, a man came out and killed the whole world. All the masters above level five were wiped out."

Fang Shao's eyes became clearer and clearer: "This man is the best in the world. He killed the strongest person in the entire world except him who was only fifth grade, and even burned all the secret martial arts books of the masters he killed! "

"As a result, there were basically no masters in the world for hundreds of years. Even Lao Nu's master was only an upper-level fifth-grade practitioner at the beginning."

"There was a gap in martial arts from then on, and it took nearly a hundred years to recover, but it is still not as good as 200 years ago."

Zhao Kang was shocked. It was too arrogant for one person to kill all the martial arts in the world and burn them down.

Fang Shao said: "Because the distance is too long, I am afraid that only people of my master's generation have heard of his existence. But maybe Jingguo has recorded it."

"After all, Jingguo started out as a martial artist. Six years ago, he also created the invincible Xuanyuan Bubai, who killed all the top experts in the world!"

Zhao Kang nodded: "By the way, father-in-law, did your master tell you the name of the guy who killed the martial arts gap?"

Fang Shao whispered: "Cao Jianjia."
