Chapter 4 Hemlock Spear!
Compared to the bookshelf that only had a few basic marksmanship and martial arts books, the bookshelf on footwork contained a large number of secret books on martial arts. Glancing over them, Ouyang Xu felt dizzy.
"There are at least hundreds of secret books on footwork. If you read them carefully one by one, you won't be able to finish them all even if you read them for several days." Ouyang Xu looked at the secret books in front of him with some worry.
Before, he was complaining that there were too few exercise manuals, but now he finally realized the disadvantages of having too many exercise manuals.
In the end, Ouyang Xu could only narrow down the number of choices through simple screening.
After half a day of screening, Ouyang Xu finally left three books of footwork and exercises.
These three books on footwork and exercises each have their own characteristics, some can increase explosive power, and some are good at dodging. The last book combines the characteristics of the first two footwork. As for the footwork used to rush, it is
He was directly ignored by Ouyang Xu.
It can be said that each of the three footwork and exercises has its own merits and characteristics. This was selected by Ouyang Xu based on his own judgment among the many exercises.
If there are knowledgeable people here at this moment, they will definitely be surprised by Ouyang Xu's judgment. After all, even low-level exercises have good and bad qualities. The three books Ouyang Xu selected are all the best.
After hesitating for a while in front of the three books on footwork and exercises, Ouyang Xu reached out and took out one of the three books.
The name on the secret book reads "Tornado Steps", which is the footwork and technique that is specialized in dodging.
At the beginning of practice, Ouyang Xu first eliminated the footwork with comprehensive characteristics. After choosing between dodge and explosive power, he finally considered that he was using a long gun, and what he paid attention to was that one inch is longer and one inch is stronger. In this regard,
Explosive power is not as appropriate as dodge.
After choosing the Whirlwind Step, Ouyang Xu came to the bookshelf containing the secret books of practicing Zhenqi Kung Fu.
After searching for it, Ouyang Xu finally chose a copy of Bawang Jin, which is a somewhat overbearing technique, and the attack power of Zhenqi is relatively strong.
After selecting, Ouyang Xu began to copy the above contents and pictures. It only took him half a day to select, but it took him nearly a day to copy. By the time he finished copying, his stomach was growling with hunger.
Reaching out to hold the secret book of exercises that he had copied, Ouyang Xu put the copy back on his own bookshelf, pushed open the door that had been closed, and walked out.
A burst of dazzling sunlight shone through, causing Ouyang Xu's eyes to sting after staying in the Heritage Pavilion for a whole day. It took him a while to get used to it.
Just as he got used to the sunshine outside, the wretched old man appeared again, with a pair of wretched eyes still looking down at Ouyang Xu with a hint of disdain.
"Take out the exercises you copied and leave after I check them."
People had to bow their heads under the eaves. Ouyang Xu reached out and handed the three-point technique secret book he copied to the wretched old man.
"The basics of shooting." The wretched old man glanced at Ouyang Xu in surprise, and said with a sarcastic smile: "I didn't expect you to practice marksmanship. I really don't know what it means."
Marksmanship is the most difficult to practice. Even those geniuses with extraordinary qualifications generally rarely choose marksmanship. This makes the wretched old man despise Ouyang Xu even more. In his opinion, he has poor qualifications and chooses to practice marksmanship. Ouyang Xu is doomed.
Nothing to do with the strong.
"Whirlwind Step, Overlord Strength." The wretched old man glanced at the other two books and threw them to Ouyang Xu with a disdainful expression.
"Family martial arts is extremely precious. Being able to practice it is already a blessing from your previous life. Remember to write down the contents and burn them as soon as possible. If the family martial arts is leaked, you will be dead by then.
I can’t make up for the mistakes you made.”
After some education, the wretched old man, perhaps feeling a little thirsty, waved his hand coldly and said: "Let's go!"
Ouyang Xu tightly grasped the three secret books of martial arts in his hand, with veins protruding on his palms. He endured the feeling of humiliation and walked past the wretched old man.
"It's really unlucky to see such an ugly thing. It's really unlucky."
As the wretched old man muttered, Ouyang Xu walked into the bamboo forest ahead. At this time, Ouyang Xu, who had been lowering his head, slowly raised his head, with a cold light shining in his eyes, like two sharp knives.
I can't wait to pierce everything in front of me.
"Sooner or later I will let you know the price of insulting me." Ouyang Xu murmured to himself, the determined look on his face became stronger, and even the steps he took became calm and firm.

Still in the dilapidated courtyard, Ouyang Xu sat cross-legged on the ground, holding a rusty scimitar in his hand, struggling to repair a branch two or three centimeters thick.
The branches are all steel-like in color, and most people would definitely think it is steel instead of branches if they take a quick look at it.
The branch in Ouyang Xu's hand was cut from a tree called the hemlock tree. Although the hemlock tree is not a spiritual treasure, it is also a very rare tree. Just like the name, the wood of the hemlock tree
It was very hard, almost like steel. He was going to use this branch to repair it into a hemlock spear.
For a warrior, a weapon is not only a fighting weapon, but also a fighting partner. A good weapon can fully bring out the user's strength, even to 120%. For some warriors,
In other words, weapons are the second life.
Although hemlock is very hard, it cannot really be compared with steel, and it is incomparable in terms of toughness and weight. However, Ouyang Xu can only use hemlock branches as spears. Even this branch is still
He secretly cut it from the only hemlock tree in the back garden of Ouyang's house.
The cheapest weapons suitable for warriors cost hundreds of taels of silver. With Ouyang Xu's current assets, which are only enough to feed himself, he cannot buy a suitable weapon at all, so he can only settle for the second best and make this one.
Hemlock lance.
This was not the first time for Ouyang Xu to make a wooden spear. He seemed to be very proficient, and soon the prototype of a spear was produced.
Although the branches of the hemlock tree are very hard and cannot be further processed or modified, because when he selected them before, he specifically looked for a relatively straight branch, so it still looks pretty good.
"Xiao Xu, look what delicious food I brought you." Just as Ouyang Xu was concentrating on carving the wooden spear, a crisp voice came from the direction of the door.
Dressed in simple clothes, but still unable to hide her plump figure, Li Xiaolan walked in from the outside with a bamboo basket in her arms with a happy expression.
"Ah! Xiaoxu, why did your face change back again?" Li Xiaolan, who was happy, asked anxiously when she saw Ouyang Xu's face with the birthmark again.
Looking at Li Xiaolan who looked worried, Ouyang Xu felt a little warm in his heart. In this cold family, only Li Xiaolan could make him feel at ease, as warm as a big sister.
"Sister Lan, don't worry. I painted it myself. After all, the birthmark on my face disappeared overnight. It's really incredible. This can save a lot of trouble." Ouyang Xu explained the matter with a smile.
Tell Li Xiaolan the truth.
"Hoo!!" Hearing this, Li Xiaolan let out a long breath, stretched out her hand and patted her huge breasts. The strong tremor reminded Ouyang Xu of the feeling of lying on it a few days ago, and he quickly turned his attention to it in embarrassment.
He concentrated his energy on the hemlock spear in his hand.
"Xiao Xu, you are well now, why are you still using a wooden spear?" Li Xiaolan put the bamboo basket on the ground, sat next to Ouyang Xu, and asked curiously.
Hearing Li Xiaolan's words, Ouyang Xu shook his head with a bitter smile. Li Xiaolan knew nothing about martial arts and had no idea that it was not because he didn't want to but because he had limited abilities.
"Sister Lan, you don't know that a long spear suitable for warriors, the most common one, costs hundreds of taels of silver. I can't afford it now, so I can only make a wooden one myself first and use it first.
"
"I have also saved some silver coins over the years. Why don't you use these silver coins to buy a real spear." Li Xiaolan said seriously without any hesitation.
Ouyang Xu looked at Li Xiaolan gratefully and shook his head gently, with a look of confidence and determination on his face.
"Although I can only use wooden spears now, in the future I will have my own magic weapon. I will become stronger step by step and will not rely on anyone."
Under the sunlight, Ouyang Xu's slightly immature face exuded a mature and masculine temperament. Li Xiaolan, who was sitting next to him, was heartbroken for a moment. There was an inexplicable look in his big eyes.
Everyone was attracted to Ouyang Xu at this time.
Ouyang Xu did not notice the change in Li Xiaolan's expression, and continued to carve the prototype of the wooden spear in his hand. After completing the work, he enjoyed a delicious meal sent by Li Xiaolan.
After seeing off Li Xiaolan, Ouyang Xu returned to the courtyard and began to think about his training plan. In addition to making a spear, he also needed a pair of iron shoes, which were specially used to practice footwork. Having iron shoes would make him more capable.
Master the whirlwind step quickly.
"By the way, in two days it will be the time when the family distributes the regular silver every month. We can use the regular silver to make iron shoes. Anyway, we will have to hunt game to satisfy our hunger during the meal, so we won't need much silver."
Thinking of this, Ouyang Xu couldn't help but feel a lot more relaxed. With the iron shoes, he can carry out his own training plan and learn the exercises selected from the inheritance pavilion as soon as possible. Only in this way can the Ouyang family have some self-protection.
ability.
In the blink of an eye, the day when the regular silver is distributed on the first day of every month has arrived. According to the regulations of the Ouyang family, as long as the children of the Ouyang family are underage, they can receive twelve taels of silver per month.
