Time flies so fast, less than a year passed in the blink of an eye.
Qin Wushuang's cultivation level is no longer as rapid as it was in the first two years. In the past year, his cultivation level has been steadily improving. For more time, he has focused on consolidating and summarizing.
aspect.
Consolidate the existing foundation, summarize the actual combat capabilities, and deduce possible duels that may occur in the family argument. He had sufficient experience in facing enemies in his previous life, and he constantly combined it with the martial arts practice system in this life to gain insights bit by bit.
He also practiced a set of "Nine Yang Palms" over and over again. Although he had practiced this set of palms tens of thousands of times in his previous life, he still believed in the saying that "long practice will make you perfect, and practice will make you better" and never stopped.
He has mastered the "Eight Suns Burning Wasteland" of the eighth palm, and when it comes out, it can reach almost 80-90% of the heat of the previous life, which greatly improves Qin Wushuang's actual combat ability.
As for the ninth palm "Nine Suns Destroy the World", he is not in a hurry to use it. Because his internal energy has not reached 100% of the state in the previous life, the state is not enough, and strong training is harmful.
On the other hand, he knew that martial arts training was a gradual process and should not be rushed. It would take some time to fully reach the peak state of his previous life, but it would never be too long. At his age in this life, he could definitely afford to wait.
The most gratifying thing is Qin Lianshan. The transformation of the "Yi Jin Jing" is indeed unparalleled. Qin Lianshan, who was not very stable at the first level of Zhenwu Realm at first, seems to have reached the third level of Zhenwu Realm, and is vaguely climbing towards the fourth level.
signs!
…
The "National Criticism" held every 20 years finally kicked off with great fanfare across the Baiyue Kingdom. It was called the "National Criticism" because all kinds of reviews were gathered together.
It includes the "Family Review" held every twenty years, the "True Martial Arts Review" held every four years, the "Liwu Review" held every two years, and the annual "Martial Arts Test".
With so many lively comments coming together, this is destined to be a lively event.
With counties as the most basic unit, the entire Baiyue Kingdom was immersed in the strong atmosphere of this great review.
On this day, Qin Lianshan personally prepared four horses, hitched the carriage, and planned to personally send Qin Wushuang to the county to participate in the earliest martial arts test.
Qin Xiu also rushed back from the farm. She didn't want to miss the first important event in her brother's life.
After arranging everything at home, Qin Lianshan took his son and daughter and set off from Donglin Town towards Luojiang County. During this trip, Qin Lianshan's mood was completely different from the past. The improvement of his strength in recent years made Qin Lianshan feel satisfied and satisfied.
He breathed a sigh of relief and waited for a head-on attack from those forces who saw the excitement of the Qin family!
After walking for nearly two hours, they finally arrived outside the gate of Luojiang County. After checking their identity, they were allowed to leave. Qin Lianshan was no stranger to Luojiang County and stayed at an inn he was familiar with.
It was already getting late that day, so Qin Lianshan had no choice but to make arrangements to stay, and planned to go to the county magistrate to submit the registration form the next morning.
This time, not only Qin Wushuang will participate in the "Martial Arts Test", but the Qin family will also participate in the "Family Evaluation" review. This is a key battle for whether they can maintain their status as a poor family.
That night, Qin Lianshan's family of three played around in the streets of Luojiang County. Returning to his hometown, Qin Wushuang was still a little shocked by the urban architecture of Luojiang County.
Luojiang County is indeed at least ten times more prosperous than Donglin Town. Just looking at the level of construction, in a world without mechanization, it is definitely no small miracle that it can reach such a level.
He refused to let go of any opportunity to learn about the world. Whenever he saw something interesting, he would study it carefully until he got the answer.
"Private fighting without permission is illegal in the city. Wushuang, you must remember this when you come back to Luojiang County!" Qin Lianshan warned carefully.
Qin Wushuang smiled slightly and nodded in agreement.
"What if someone else provokes you? Self-defense is not acceptable as a last resort?" Qin Xiu asked curiously.
"Those who provoke will be severely punished, and those who defend themselves will not be punished! The prerequisite is that you must have witnesses to prove this." Qin Lianshan explained patiently.
Suddenly, Qin Wushuang's eyes stopped in front of him. Qin Lianshan looked up and saw that it was not enemies who never met. On the opposite street, Mr. Zhang Maorui, who had a grudge against Qin Wushuang for killing his son, was leading a few of his men, looking coldly at them.
Looking sideways.
"Ignore him, let's go." Qin Lianshan knew that the famous Zhang family was relatively powerful in Luojiang County, and he could never afford to offend him.
But if you don't mess with him, he will mess with you.
Mr. Zhang had a gloomy look on his face and made a sarcastic remark: "I just said that my eyelids have been twitching so much these past few days that I feel like something good is about to happen. It turns out that fat meat is coming to my door."
Qin Lianshan turned a deaf ear and turned away with his children.
Qin Wushuang didn't want to argue with such an idiot on the street. He glanced back at Zhang Maorui, and a murderous intention flashed in his eyes.
Apparently, the famous Zhang family still cares about the Qin family!
It is better to dissolve enemies than to make them, but once they are made, they will never end.
That night, Qin Wushuang sat cross-legged, not letting go of his exercises.
Suddenly, his ears twitched slightly. In the darkness, there were faint footsteps approaching from the room next to his. Although the footsteps were suppressed with all his strength, to Qin Wushuang's ears, the footsteps were no different than if they were not suppressed.
I lurked quietly at the window and saw a black shadow in the night, scurrying closer like a civet cat.
This master of shadow art was brave, and gently stretched out his hand to push the window open. Just as he was about to rush inside, his shoulders suddenly sank, and his mouth was covered by a hot palm, and he was pinched under his arm.
Reached a secluded corner.
"Who sent you here?" A cold voice sounded in his ears.
"Hmph, you can't even think of trying to trick me...ah!" The screams were muffled before they could even sound.
"I have no intention of appreciating your so-called backbone performance. I will count dozens of times. Every time I count, I will crush one of your fingers. After counting ten times, you will never be able to hold a woman with your hands in your life."
"One!" the cold voice announced.
"I said, it's Mr. Zhang Maorui! He asked me to take the Qin family girl there for his enjoyment. He also said that he would rape the Qin family girl in front of the Qin family father and son...ah!"
Here, the sound stopped suddenly, and without even struggling for a moment, a strong man at the first level of the True Martial Realm was harvested and killed by Qin Wushuang.
"Zhang Maorui, it is indeed this evil wolf!" Qin Wushuang stood up straight in the dark night, his eyes as cold as knives in the night, muttering cold meanings from between his teeth, "Since you Zhang Maorui
If you like to play, I will play with you until you collapse!"
There was peace in Luojiang County overnight, but not at Zhang Maorui's home. A hysterical scream from a servant at home broke the silence at dawn.
A cold corpse was hung on the red lacquer door of the Zhang family's mansion, with a note hanging on it saying: Next, Zhang Yao!
Zhang Yao is Zhang Maorui’s eldest son!
This note stated that the Taoist people wanted to kill Zhang Yao, and that the formation was a demonstration to Zhang Maorui. Zhang Maorui stared at the corpse, and there was no doubt that this was indeed his subordinate.
A master of the True Martial Realm had his throat crushed! His body was hung silently on the gate of Zhang Mansion. This level of cultivation is absolutely impossible for the Qin family to achieve!
But the master he sent was to deal with the Qin family. Who was interfering? Or is there another master who protects the Qin family?
This is also impossible. He, Zhang Maorui, has investigated the Qin family's information very clearly. If he is not sure, how can he be so confident?
However, something unexpected happened to him!
"Give him a rich burial and double the compensation for his family." Master Zhang ordered without losing his cool.
Looking at the eldest son Zhang Yao on the side, he suddenly said: "It's nothing, just stay at home and don't go out these two days!"
Zhang Maorui only has two sons in total. The younger Zhang Xian and Qin Wushuang were killed. If something happens to the eldest son again, what hope does Zhang Maorui have?
Although Zhang Yao has reached the ninth level of the Liwu Realm in the past few years, he has not yet entered the True Martial Realm. Seeing that all the True Martial Realm masters sent by his father were killed, he felt a little worried and nodded guiltily.
Unexpectedly, in a corner of the Zhang family's mansion, Qin Wushuang sneered secretly: Is it okay to hide at home? In a few nights, it will be time for Mr. Zhang to collect his son's body!
Qin Wushuang would never show mercy to a wolf like Zhang Maorui. He would slowly torture Zhang Maorui's nerves until he collapsed.
He dared to take advantage of his sister and had such thoughts that he was worse than a beast. This was unforgivable to Qin Wushuang. Even if Zhang Maorui died a hundred times, it would not be too much.
…
The hall of the county magistrate's office was crowded and lively.
Today is the first day of open registration, and there are so many people who came to register. From this registration ceremony, we can see the strict hierarchy of this world and the privileges of the nobility.
As the lowest class among the nobles, the Humble Family is also the most expensive among the nobles even for the registration fee to take the martial arts test.
Fortunately, he came from a poor family. If he were a commoner, he would not be able to afford the martial arts test fee of ten taels of gold alone.
Qin Wushuang didn't quite understand why the registration fee was the highest for common people who were so poor, while the higher the status of nobles, the lower the registration fee.
But he quickly figured out that this was a world controlled by nobles, and the rule makers must of course safeguard the interests of the nobles.
The strong become stronger, the weak become weaker!
I raised my head and watched my father squeeze out of the crowd and finally get two registration forms.
One is from Qin Wushuang's "Martial Boy Test", and the other is from the Qin family's participation in the "Family Evaluation".
"Father, leave it to me to fill out the form! Can you and your sister wait for me outside?" Qin Wushuang had an idea.
Qin Lianshan smiled and said: "You want to exercise in advance? That's fine! You will have to face these things sooner or later, so it's better to face them earlier. Then your sister and I will wait for you outside."
Qin Wushuang took the registration form and the family seal.
The form for the Wu Tong test is very simple, only filling in basic information such as age and family background.
The registration process for "Family Review" is relatively complicated. In addition to filling in basic information, you also need to fill in the level of the review you want to participate in.
The current situation of the Qin family, if you want to sign up, it will definitely be just a sign of being a poor family, and you can't have more extravagant hopes. However, Qin Wu held this watch in his hands, looked at it for a while, and thought: I think my ancestors of the Qin family are also people after all.
Wealthy family, if I can help the Qin family regain the seat of this wealthy family, I believe my father will be happy!
A wealthy family, equivalent to the highest rank among the common people, needs at least one master of the fourth level of the True Martial Realm to be in charge!
Qin Wushuang dared to think and act, so he immediately filled in this column. He thought that with his current strength, let alone the fourth level of the Zhenwu Realm, he would still be defeated if he came to the sixth level. Unless he was the eighth level or above of the Zhenwu Realm, who would take the photo?
who!
The reason why he applied for a wealthy family instead of applying for a higher level was because he didn't know much about the high-end strength system in this world and didn't want to act too rashly to avoid causing trouble for the family.
After handing in the filled-in registration form, the county official in charge of collecting the forms glanced at it and stuffed it directly into a pile of forms. He threw the two qualification cards to Qin Wushuang without raising his head: "With the qualification cards
Enter the tasting room!”
After everything was done, Qin Wushuang walked out happily.
Qin Lianshan smiled and asked: "How is it? Have you finished your report?"
"Okay, the martial arts test will be in three days. The family evaluation may take ten days and a half." He shook the two qualification cards and put them into his bag.
How did Qin Lianshan know that his son had tampered with the entry form? Seeing that everything was done, he smiled and said: "Okay, our family will have a good time in Luojiang County these days!"
