Volume 1 Changshui County Handyman Chapter 24 Xu Zhi Makes Big Profits
There is no such thing as old age care in this world.
When they get older and their energy declines, the Demon Slayer Division will no longer want these handymen.
Practicing martial arts is not a choice.
Do you think these handymen don’t want to be good at martial arts?
These handymen also want to, but they have no way to practice martial arts.
The Demon Slayer Division does have the most common martial arts skills in the entire Zhou Dynasty, but if you have no special contribution, the Demon Slayer Division will not let you practice in vain.
It is really difficult for a handyman to make a special contribution.
Lu Jiuzhang looked at the introductory martial arts book on the table. It was not the kind of martial arts skills that were popular in the Zhou Dynasty. It was called "Nine Revolutions of Chaos Technique".
The name sounds quite impressive, but I don't know exactly how powerful Lu Jiuzhang is.
Many martial arts techniques are actually very poor and difficult to practice to a high level.
"This book is the technique of my sect!" Zhou Cheng said, "I am a disciple of a sect in Anxi Prefecture. Later, the sect was destroyed, so I chose to join the Demon Slayer Division to avoid my enemies seeking revenge!"
"There are many sects like my sect throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they are all inferior. There are also very few masters in the sect, and the risk of destruction is very high."
"Almost every day, some sects are destroyed, and some people create their own sects and become the founders of a sect."
"Of course, being the founder of a sect is just what they call themselves, and in fact it has no real value!"
"There are only three most famous sects in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they are first-class sects, namely Shenwu Sect, Zhongnan Palace, and Baihua Valley."
"The plaque of the Shenwu Sect was inscribed by the founder of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Taizu Yubi, and it is very closely connected with the Great Zhou Dynasty. The disciples of Baihua Valley are mainly women, and Zhongnan Hall is a little aloof from things, and there are few in the world.
There are traces of it.”
This is the first time Lu Jiuzhang has heard about the situation of these three sects.
The main reason is that Changshui County is remote and the information is too limited. There are very few people who know about these things.
"This [Nine Revolutions of Chaos Technique] is extremely difficult to practice, and the maximum limit is the seventh level of martial arts." Zhou Cheng said, "It is not as good as the techniques of those top sects, but it is better than nothing."
Can I only practice to the seventh level of martial arts?
This is too tasteless!
But for ordinary people, it is enough to be able to enter the first rank. The seventh rank is simply unimaginable.
"Why is it said that the upper limit is seven levels? Because the founder of the sect has only cultivated to the seventh level of martial arts. The sect has been inherited for more than eighty years. Except for the founder of the sect, the highest cultivation level is probably the eighth level. In my generation, eight levels in a row
No one has been able to enter!"
Zhou Cheng added.
The upper limit of his sect is too low, and this technique is too difficult and not simple enough.
If he had practiced other martial arts techniques, Zhou Cheng might have already reached the eighth level of martial arts.
"It would be nice to practice some!" Lu Jiuzhang said with a wry smile, "Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for the gift of the skills!"
"Okay, go down and practice hard!"
Zhou Cheng waved his hand, indicating that Lu Jiuzhang could leave.
That's all I can say, Zhou Cheng still has to go home for dinner.
As for why this skill book was given to Lu Jiuzhang, someone actually asked Zhou Cheng to give it to him.
Moreover, Zhou Cheng had a good sense of Lu Jiuzhang, so he agreed.
…
When leaving the Demon Slayer Division, Lu Jiuzhang would poke his chest where the exercises were stored every once in a while, for fear that he would lose the exercises.
The value of martial arts skills that can reach the top level is not low.
The cheapest one probably costs several taels of gold, which can be converted into several thousand taels of silver.
Or you can be rewarded only if you make outstanding contributions.
Both of these methods are too difficult for ordinary people.
Therefore, even though this [Nine Revolutions of Chaos Art] can only be practiced to the seventh level of martial arts at most, Lu Jiuzhang still agreed.
This is a rare good thing!
When he was almost at the door of his home, Lu Jiuzhang caught a glimpse of a person standing in front of his home from a distance.
really weird!
In the past, when the eldest brother Lu Huaigu was still alive, he didn't see any guests at home for more than half a year.
Now that Lu Huaigu is dead, there is a person standing at the door every now and then, waiting for Lu Jiuzhang to come back.
Although it is not clear what the identity of the other party is, this is in the city, in Changshui County, and Lu Jiuzhang is still a handyman of the Demon Slaying Department and has an official status, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
He bravely walked up to the other party. Lu Jiuzhang cupped his hand and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
"Are you Lu Jiuzhang?"
The man slowly turned around.
Only then did Lu Jiuzhang notice that the person in front of him should be a woman.
Her pectoralis major is so exaggerated that even if she is wearing men's clothing, she can be recognized at a glance.
"Exactly? I wonder what you are doing, young lady?"
Lu Jiuzhang asked.
"I don't like people calling me miss. You can just call me Mr. Zhao. I'm from Qianji Tower."
The woman in front of him said slowly.
I have to say that this woman is extremely beautiful, with a hint of heroism between her eyebrows.
As for what she said about not liking others to call her miss, Lu Jiuzhang muttered in his heart. He didn't know the other person's identity, let alone their preferences. How could he know how she liked to be called by others?
"Mr. Zhao, are you looking for me for the Corpse Beads?"
Seeing that it was from Qianji Tower, Lu Jiuzhang immediately understood the other party's purpose.
"Yes, please make a price. If the price is right, I can give you whatever you want."
When Director Zhao looked at Lu Jiuzhang, there was no arrogance in his words, but a strong sense of confidence.
As long as you need it, I can get it for you within a reasonable range.
At first glance, he looked like he was a member of a big family, and he was very different from the old man he met in Qianji Tower last time.
"I don't even know what I want!"
Lu Jiuzhang shook his head.
In fact, Lu Jiuzhang really wanted to tell the other party to kill Chen Xuanfeng directly, but after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't say anything.
This request is unreasonable at first glance. The value of the corpse beads is far from being enough to allow the other party to assassinate Chen Xuanfeng.
Moreover, no matter how rich the background of Qian Ji Building, it is just a large shop after all, while the Demon Slaying Department is an official residence, and Chen Xuanfeng is the deputy director of the Demon Slaying Department in Changshui County.
Assassinating Chen Xuanfeng is a provocation to the Demon Slayer Division!
Some people cannot be easily touched, just like paying the same amount every year. Once a precedent is set, problems will inevitably arise.
"I think your house is a bit old. I can pay a sum of money to repair it for you." Director Zhao said directly, "I checked your information and found that you are a handyman of the Demon Slayer Department in Changshui County. I can also do it."
I will give you a book of martial arts training techniques so that you can become a master as soon as possible. By then, you can become a demon-slaying guard or demon-slaying envoy in Changshui County."
"No matter what happens, I can use my connections to transfer you to the Demon Slaying Department of Anxi Prefecture!"
Director Zhao feels that everything in the world has a price, and if the other party doesn't agree, it's just because the price is not right.
