Longevity Martial Arts: Start with Five Animals Health Boxing

   Chapter 66 Iron Beast Armor! The storm is here!

  Su Changkong naturally wouldn't know that, hundreds of miles away, Shi Zijian, the leader of the Black Rider Gang, had already vowed to kill him and soon after!

  Su Changkong lived a very peaceful life. He practiced boxing, knives, forging, raising knives, and the Turtle Breathing Technique. On his days off, he would go to Qingshui City to obtain information on the disciples of the Black Lotus Sect from the magistrate Wang Yun.

However, it was useful for Su Changkong to find that he killed nearly ten Black Lotus disciples in a row. This made the Black Lotus disciples in Qingshui City obviously become more low-key, and some even deliberately concealed their whereabouts. The locations on the intelligence came empty-handed.

   This makes Su Changkong helpless, as expected, this kind of business of getting rich can't last long!

   Caishen Town, Shenzhuang.

  Su Changkong came to Shenzhuang again to visit the owner of the villa, Liu Feng. As for the purpose, of course, it was to prepare the medicinal materials of boiling blood powder.

After Liu Feng looked at Su Changkong's purchase list, he frowned and said, "Mr. Wen, most of the herbs on this list can be received with some effort, but some of them are prohibited from selling... Really It is difficult to acquire.”

  Some of the medicinal materials needed for boiling blood powder are not only rare, but also highly poisonous. Shenzhuang is a regular business, and it is impossible to break the rules for this.

   "I know that the herbs that can be purchased will trouble the owner of Villa Liu." Su Changkong didn't embarrass Liu Feng either. Among them, several herbs that could not be bought on the market, Su Changkong decided to go to the ghost market to buy them.

   "Okay, I can handle this part of the medicinal materials in a few days at most." Liu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and assured.

After    negotiated, Su Changkong left: "The ghost market will open in the middle of the month next month, and then go to the ghost market."

   Walking on the street, Su Changkong was thinking, he was suddenly stunned, and saw a man and a woman on the street in the distance, talking and laughing from time to time, and the woman's face occasionally showed a sweet expression.

   "Yan Song?"

   And the man among them was Yan Song.

  Yan Song was obviously playing with Jie'er, whom he said. Su Changkong had seen it last time. Seeing this, Su Changkong didn't bother to go up and was about to leave.

   "Brother Wen!"

   But Yan Song also saw Su Changkong, he said hello, and at the same time warned the woman next to him, the woman nodded and stood there waiting, while Yan Song came over.

   "Brother Yan, long time no see."

  Su Changkong said hello, Yan Song has been living in Caishen Town, the last time we met was a few months ago.

  Yan Song glanced left and right, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he lowered his voice and said, "Brother Wen, have you heard about the Black Horse Gang and the Baiyu Gang?"

   "The White Jade Gang and the Black Rider Gang?" Su Changkong was shocked, he shook his head.

   In fact, Su Changkong seldom went out, so he didn't know much about what happened on the rivers and lakes in Qingshui City.

Hearing this, Yan Song said: "A few days ago, Shi Zijian, the leader of the Black Riders, led nearly a thousand knights to storm the White Jade Gang. After a fierce battle, the White Jade Gang was destroyed overnight. Shao is said to have escaped and hid."

   "The White Jade Gang was wiped out by the Black Rider Gang?"

   Hearing this news, Su Changkong was also a little surprised.

   The conflict between the Black Rider Gang and the White Jade Gang is well known, but now that the White Jade Gang exists in name only, it still surprises Su Changkong!

   "In the martial arts of Qingshui City now, the Black Knight Gang is the dominant family, and they act in a domineering style, Brother Wen... You'd better be careful."

   Yan Song whispered.

  The rest of the people don't know, but Yan Song, who has the most contact with Su Changkong, is speculating about Su Changkong's identity.

When    met Su Changkong for the first time, Yan Song felt that Su Changkong was probably the mysterious young warrior who killed Shi Hanshan, the leader of the Black Cavalry Gang.

   A few months ago, Magistrate Wang Yun asked Yan Song to help introduce martial arts masters, and Yan Song introduced Su Changkong.

Since that day, Qingshui City Wulin has added a mysterious warrior ghost face who specializes in killing disciples of the Black Lotus Sect. Yan Song is not a fool. Although he does not understand the agreement between Wang Yun and Su Changkong, he can understand that after a little thought. Nine times out of ten, the ghost face is Wentai!

   The warriors who can easily kill the disciples of the Black Lotus Sect, Qingshui City is just that.

   Not long ago, there was news that the Black Cavalry Gang was offering a bounty for the wanted ghost face. Now that he ran into Su Changkong in Caishen Town, Yan Song couldn't help but reminded Su Changkong a few words about the Black Cavalry Gang.

Su Changkong was also stunned when he heard this. He naturally knew that he had killed Shi Hanshan and Cao Hong, the second leader of the Black Cavalry Gang. Come and kill him!

   "Well, thank you Brother Yan for letting me know." Su Changkong nodded slightly, acknowledging Yan Song's feelings.

  The two didn't talk for a long time, and they parted ways after chatting for a while.

   Looking at Su Changkong's retreating back, Yan Song couldn't help sighing: "Young...that's good!"

Everyone has dreamed of becoming a person who can cause great waves with every move. This Wentai, who is young, not only killed nearly ten disciples of the Black Lotus Sect, but also a ghost face worshipped and admired by many people. He is also a black horse gang. The enemy that the gang leader swore to unscrew his head! Undoubtedly the man of the Qingshui City martial arts!

Yan Song also wanted to be such a person when he was young, but now he is old and earns enough money for the rest of his life. Who will have the last laugh in between!

Saying goodbye to Yan Song, Su Changkong had some thoughts: "Although I act as Wentai and Ghost Face, there is no impermeable wall in the world, not to mention all kinds of unpredictable accidents. If Shi Zijian comes to the door, then It's dangerous, I have to prepare early!"

   Fighting against Shi Zijian alone, Su Changkong still has certain confidence to win the battle, but Shi Zijian is not fighting alone, he has hundreds of disciples.

  There are so many fierce and elite warriors, let alone Su Changkong, even if they are facing ordinary warriors in the blood and blood level, they have the possibility of besieging them and consuming them alive!

  Su Changkong is not arrogant enough to think that he can swept away thousands of troops and defeat thousands with one!

   Therefore, prepare early!

  Boiled Blood Powder, try your luck when the ghost market opens in the middle of next month!

   In addition, if you have more than one enemy, physical strength is second, and defense is the most important.

   After all, if you are facing a siege of dozens or hundreds of people, you will be able to guard against attacks in one direction, but you may not be able to guard against attacks in other areas.

   Although Su Changkong is wearing gold ring armor, this gold ring armor can only protect the upper body, but the key points of the head and lower body cannot be prevented!

   "I have to build a suit of armor...a suit of armor that can protect the whole body!"

  Su Changkong clenched his fists, defense is more important than attack!

  Although the enemy has not yet come to the door, and may not even know his identity, no one will know which will come first tomorrow or unexpectedly! Be prepared for danger!

   With a focus on his priorities, Su Changkong quickly returned to the Black Iron Villa, and explained his request to Director Liu: "Director Liu, I have been short of money recently, and I want to work overtime in the afternoon and evening to earn more money."

When Su Changkong used to build crossbows, he used unmanned rest time to work overtime. This time Su Changkong made the same request, but Director Liu was only slightly surprised, so he nodded with a smile: "Of course, the owner said, You don't need to ask him about ordinary little things."

   "Thank you, Director Liu!" Su Changkong also nodded and thanked him. If he wanted to build a suit of armor, he naturally had to use the workshop at Black Iron Villa.

   "I want to build a set of heavy armor with a multi-layer structure, and the defense must be strong enough!"

Su Changkong returned to his room and began to draw blueprints. For him, daily forging was as long as eating. His forging skills had almost reached the level of magic, and Su Changkong could also do it. Realize some of your ideas.

Su Changkong drew a blueprint, which could withstand heavy blows from blunt weapons, as well as slashes and stabs from sharp weapons. Its weight was definitely impossible to light. As a martial artist with great forging physique, Su Changkong could resist even if he was wearing a Heavy armor can also move flexibly, so he can tailor it for himself!

It took    more than an hour to revise and modify, and finally a drawing of a pair of armor appeared on the paper.

The hand armor, arm armor, head armor, leg armor, breast armor, etc. are no different from ordinary armor, but Su Changkong's design is very delicate, using the steel folding technique of forging knives, the armor is divided into three layers, in the interlayer It can be filled with cotton, resin and other objects, so that even if it is a heavy hammer blow, there are three layers of armor to buffer, the impact force will be greatly reduced, of course, this will cause the armor to be extra thick and heavy, which is a martial artist with amazing physique Only have the ability to wear and use!

   "Also...design some spurs to prevent melee attacks." Su Changkong was still dissatisfied, so he revised it again and drew one spur after another on the drawing.

Knees, gauntlet joints, elbows, breastplates, helmets, these parts are all added with sharp barbs, just like a hedgehog. If someone fights with him with bare hands, there will be nowhere to go, and the sharp spines in these parts are also Can be used for active attack.

   "Start work!"

   In the afternoon, all the blacksmiths in the workshop were exhausted and went to rest, while Su Changkong in the workshop started to build his ideal set of heavy armor in high spirits.

  Su Changkong had experience in making armors in the Baiyu Gang, and now his forging skills are more than one step higher than then, and he can complete all the steps of making armors by himself.

   "Clang clang clang!"

  Su Changkong wielded a heavy hammer, like a tireless machine, carefully and repeatedly tempering pieces of pig iron into steel.

   This is the battle armor that Su Changkong created for himself. Of course, he has to show 12 points of seriousness and ability to complete every step meticulously!

Su Changkong first created hand armors, arm armors, etc. These armors are relatively large and difficult to store in the Black Iron Villa. Every time he finished building a part, he would transport them to the caves several miles away from the Black Iron Villa. There is also a batch of crossbows that Su Changkong built and recovered before.

   In order to create this set of armor, Su Changkong reduced the rest time, that is, the time to practice the Turtle Breathing Technique. Anyway, even if he worked hard all day, the Turtle Breathing Technique could not be completed in a short period of time.

   Working overtime, with Su Changkong's forging skills and efficiency, he was ten times more than ordinary people.

   Even so, it took Su Changkong nearly a month to build this armor!

   More than 20 days later, in a barren mountain cave several miles away from Hei Tie Villa, Su Changkong lifted the thatch covering the armor, revealing various parts of the armor.

  Su Changkong took a deep breath and put on his hand armor, leg armor, and breastplate.

   After a few minutes, dressed neatly, there was a burly figure in the cave.

  Su Changkong's entire body, except for his eyes, was shrouded in dark silver thick armor.

   This set of armor is quite thick, which makes Su Changkong, who is already tall, swell a lot from the outside, and ordinary people are as skinny as a child in front of him!

   Not only that, there are metal spikes half a foot long on the head, chest, back, fist joints, knees, elbows and other parts, shining with cold light!

Su Changkong stood there, and if he didn't move, his scalp would go numb, and his heart was horrified. The armor that Su Changkong built was completely for killing, for actual combat, with both offense and defense. It was like a metal beast. A cold killing machine!

   "Clang!"

  Su Changkong moved his body and stepped on the ground with heavy footsteps, and there was a clanging sound when the armor rubbed.

   "Whoohoo!"

Wearing the armor, Su Changkong played the "Five Animals Show", as if a giant metal beast was dancing, the strong wind blowing the weeds in the cave scattered everywhere, the heavy body, the neighing sound when the metal spikes cut through the air. Sound, people can't even get close!

   "The whole set of armor weighs about 140 kilograms. It's okay... It's a load for me to share the whole body, but it's not big, and it won't affect my speed and flexibility too much!"

  Su Changkong experimented and nodded with satisfaction.

   The whole set of battle armor weighs 140 kilograms. Ordinary people may not be able to even perform activities when wearing it. Even a warrior of the divine power will definitely be greatly affected.

   "This armor is called Iron Beast, and I have to familiarize myself with the activities of wearing this armor."

  Su Changkong named this armor, Iron Beast!

   In the next few days, in order to get familiar with the Iron Beast Armor, Su Changkong would come to this cave every day to practice Wu Qin Xi, wearing the Iron Beast Battle Armor to practice Wu Qin Xi.

   Created this set of iron beast armor specially used for killing enemies, Su Changkong felt a little at ease.

   "There are two days left before the ghost market opens this month, you can't miss it!"

  Su Changkong didn't forget about the ghost market.

  In the blink of an eye, two days later, Su Changkong set off for the barren mountain where the ghost city is located in the Qingshui City area.

   This time, Su Changkong changed his clothes. Instead of wearing the scarlet ghost face, he wore a monkey mask.

   At night, the full moon hangs high, and under the moonlight, the barren hills are even more desolate. A long-ruined mountain village has dim lights. The ghost market that opens once a month opens as scheduled!

   Figures wearing different clothes, wearing masks, and hiding their identities come and go, all with various purposes, either to sell some stolen goods, or to buy some things that are not available on the market.

  Su Changkong sat down on the side of the street and placed a wooden sign beside him. The wooden sign said several highly toxic medicinal materials that Su Changkong wanted to purchase.

  The streets of the ghost city are crowded with people, shopping for the items they need. There are many people, but it seems very quiet.

   Waited quietly, not long after, a man wearing a dog-face mask stopped in front of Su Changkong, he lowered his voice: "I have some of the blood cordyceps you bought."

  Su Changkong was overjoyed, this blood cordyceps was one of the several medicinal herbs for boiling blood powder that he needed.

   But Su Changkong pressed his throat on the surface and said hoarsely: "Let's make a price, the price is right, I want as much as I have."

   "A total of four blood cordyceps, 10 taels each, no counter-offer."

  The dog-face mask man whispered.

  Four blood cordyceps is forty taels, which is quite expensive, but it is vaguely expensive. A few dozen taels of silver are nothing to Su Changkong, so he did not bargain, and said directly: "Deal!"

  Su Changkong paid forty taels of silver, and the man in the dog-face mask didn't talk nonsense. He took out a cloth bag from his arms and handed it to Su Changkong.

  Su Changkong opened it and checked it. The cloth bag contained four blood-colored worms the size of pinky fingers. It was like grass, motionless, and exuded a faint smell of blood.

"Um."

  Su Changkong nodded, indicating that there was no problem, and the man in the dog-face mask went elsewhere.

   Successfully acquired a rare medicinal material needed for Boiling Blood Powder, Su Changkong waited quietly.

   After a while, a second person came to him. He had another highly poisonous substance prepared with Boiling Blood Powder on his body. Su Changkong spent some money and successfully purchased it!

  It was midnight, and many guests who came to the ghost market had already left. The streets were even more sparse and the lights were dimly lit.

  Su Changkong's brows furrowed under the mask: "It's still worse than the blood of red-bellied snakes and snakes."

   The materials are almost collected, but they are still the same. They have not been acquired for a long time. If they are not acquired this time, they will have to wait for the next month to come back to the ghost market. It will undoubtedly be time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it may not be able to achieve what you want!

Just when Su Changkong was troubled, a man with a black veil came to Su Changkong, glanced at the sign placed in front of Su Changkong, and said in a rough voice: "You need a red-bellied snake. Blood?"

   "Well, do you have any?" Hearing this, Su Changkong was instantly overjoyed, but his voice remained calm.

   "No, but I saw a red-bellied snake in a certain mountain a few days ago. There is usually more than one place where the red-bellied snake haunts. You give me 5 taels of silver, and I will tell you the location."

   The black veil masked man said calmly.

  Su Changkong was a little speechless, selling 5 taels for a piece of news? Do you have to go to the mountains to catch it yourself?

But Su Changkong thought for a while. If the black veil masked man didn't charge him and told him for free, Su Changkong would still doubt his purpose. Instead of waiting to come to the ghost market next month, he might not be able to acquire it, so he might as well do it himself. Go grab one or two!

   Of course, it's also possible that the man in the black veil was deceiving him, but those who can come to the ghost market are not ordinary people, and they shouldn't be short of four or five taels of silver.

   "Okay." Su Changkong replied briefly, took out five taels of silver, and handed it to the man in the black gauze mask.

   After receiving the money, the black veil masked man said, "Qingzhu Mountain, I saw a red-bellied snake there half a month ago."

   pointed out that there were red-bellied snakes infested nearby, and the black veil masked man turned and left.

  Su Changkong continued to wait, but until the sky was getting brighter and the ghost market was closed, Su Changkong failed to acquire the blood of the red-bellied snake and snake.

   "You have to catch it yourself."

   No way, Su Changkong's Boiling Blood Powder was still short of this medicinal ingredient, so after leaving the ghost market, he had to go to Qingzhu Mountain.

   Green Bamboo Mountain, located in the boundary of Qingshui City, is full of green bamboos, and it is normal for some snakes and insects to live in them!

  Su Changkong has no experience in catching snakes, but he also knows that snakes are yin and like to haunt in some dark and damp places. The green bamboo mountain is not large, and a carpet-like search should only take a day or two, and you should be able to get what you want!

  Su Changkong caught snakes in Qingzhu Mountain, which prevented him from returning to the Black Iron Villa on time. Fortunately, he asked for leave in advance.

   And in the Black Iron Villa, something big happened!

"Da da da!"

   Outside the Black Iron Villa, a group of knights galloped on their horses, all of them wearing black clothes with a sturdy aura!

   "The Black Riders... The Black Riders are here!" On the high wall of the Black Iron Villa, the members responsible for guarding the gates widened their eyes and shouted, recognizing that the group of knights were from the Black Riders!

   "Clang clang clang!"

  In the Black Iron Villa, a series of warning bells sounded immediately, reminding all members that something major happened!

   "What's the situation? The black cavalry gang is here?"

   "It's not yet the beginning of the year, so you're here to collect New Year's money again?"

   Up and down the Black Iron Villa, when they learned that the warriors of the Black Riding Gang were coming, no doubt all of them were shocked, wondering why the Black Riding Gang came to the Black Iron Villa before the new year.

   But no one dared to be careless, and they all came to the wall and gate of the villa with weapons such as swords and hammers, waiting for them.

   The more than 100 knights who came to the Black Iron Villa were headed by Chen Zhuang, the third head of the Black Iron Villa!
