Great Xuanwu Sheng Chapter 63

Chapter 63 Zheng Family

To the northwest of Wutong Lane, a large block belongs to the Zheng family, with many types of shops.

At the back of the block is the Zheng family's courtyard. It occupies a very large area and is composed of multiple courtyards with three or four entrances. This kind of foundation was not built in one generation, but was gradually developed over several generations.

In one of the slightly lower courtyards, there are sand pits, bags, stone locks and other weapons training equipment. There are many men practicing Kung Fu, some of them are members of the Zheng family, and many are guards and martial arts masters hired by the Zheng family.

 In another quieter yard in the distance.

Zheng Hong sat behind a stone table, holding a pipe in his hand. He took a puff and said: "The new official has taken office. The City Guards are just doing daily exercises. It's not worth making a fuss about. Come on down."

In front of him was a servant who came in a hurry to report the news. When he heard this, he quickly bowed his head and went down.

The Zheng family has been entrenched in Wutong for many years, and their spies are naturally everywhere, even in the City Guards Department. They may not know about some small things, but they can basically know about any big moves quickly. The morning and dusk drills of the third class officers naturally do not count. Little movement.

But Zheng Hong didn't care about this.

Although the City Guards has a large number of officers, no matter how hard they train, can they still produce a group of elite soldiers who are as sharp as the Protectorate? It costs money, and it's not even a small amount.

 No matter how well trained the ordinary officers are, they are just servants, and not many of them are really capable. There are only seven poor officers and a few close followers, who can be considered as good as ten.

Among the martial arts guards hired by the Zheng family, there are quite a few such good ones.

to be honest.

 Even if there is a head-on conflict with the City Guards, the Zheng family has nothing to fear.

At this moment, a shirtless young man walked into the yard and said from a distance: "Uncle, I heard that you had some conflicts with the new police officer? This morning and evening drill seems like a demonstration." .”

Zheng Hong looked at the young man who walked in, blew out the smoke and said: "This new Chasi and Xu Feng are on the same path, and they will be enemies sooner or later... Why are you here? Have you practiced Kung Fu well?"

Zheng Yong exposed his large muscles, and did not feel the cold at all in the cold winter. He walked all the way to Zheng Hong, shook his head and said: "I have accumulated enough energy and blood, but I just can't pass that level."

Zheng Hong looked up at the sky and said faintly: "The step of changing tendons is not as good as grinding skin and muscles. Don't be impatient and guard against arrogance and impetuosity. You are the only one with the best understanding and talent in this generation of the Zheng family, so no matter how hard you work, The resources must also be given to you. As long as you can step into the level of Yi Jin, the Zheng family will have the opportunity to move to the inner city and move to the next level."

 Skin grinding and meat training can be piled up with resources, but the step of Yijin is a big shackle. Not to mention the Zheng family, even big families such as the Yu family in the inner city cannot easily do it.

 First of all, resources are limited, and the inner city families have to compete with each other for Yijinwan's share.

  Secondly.

Obtaining the Yijin Pills does not necessarily mean that you will be able to break through the barriers and step into the realm of Yijin. The Yijin Pills themselves only play the most important role of 'guiding'. They can direct the energy and blood of the body to the big tendons of the whole body, but whether they can truly open them up , it also depends on the warrior himself.

 One Yijin Pill can usually only be used for about three months, and then it will completely turn into medicine dregs.

And under normal circumstances, the first Yijin Pill used by a warrior has the best effect. If the second one is used, the efficiency and the probability of breaking through will be greatly reduced, and the third one is the last chance.

Most people in the outer city often don't even get a chance. Even for a power like the Zheng family, getting a Yijin Pill will cost you a lot.

“Don't worry, third uncle, I will try my best no matter what.”

 Zheng Yong said.

He knew that the Zheng family also relied on years of accumulation, family wealth and connections to obtain a copy of Yi Jin Wan. It was a hard-won opportunity, but manpower was sometimes scarce. He first understood the power of the sword at the age of twenty, and practiced it at the age of twenty-one. The meat is perfect, and the practice has been smooth sailing all the way. Just when his heart is high and arrogant, the threshold of Yi Jin is blocking him out. Now the Yijin Pill has gradually turned into dregs. He can brew it a few times at most, but he still can't get past the bottleneck.

Zheng Hong raised his eyes and looked at Zheng Yong. After thinking for a long time, he finally said slowly: "Actually, there is something that I didn't want to tell you at this time, but you only have a few days left for your first Yijin, so I will tell you." Come on...the Yijin Pill you used was left behind by the Zheng family many years ago, and there is actually a new pill at home."

Hearing what Zheng Hong said.

Zheng Yong was startled for a moment, and then his eyes lit up.

 “Is there another one?”

He thought he had only one chance. Seeing that more than two months had passed and the opportunity was gradually disappearing, he felt a little discouraged. But when he suddenly heard that there was a second Yijin Pill, he felt excited for a moment.

 “If I can have a second one, I will definitely be able to cross that threshold!”

Zheng Yong looked at Zheng Hong and said excitedly.

Zheng Hong said calmly: "I didn't tell you earlier because I wanted you to be determined to work hard, but now I'm telling you to get you back on your feet. Although there is still a second one, if you can win in the last few days, It's even better when you reach the level of Yijin.”

 Speaking of which.

Zheng Hong knocked the cigarette pole on the stone platform and said, "Okay, go practice Kung Fu quickly. I didn't have the blessing like you back then!"

 “Yes, third uncle.”

Zheng Yong turned his head hesitantly.

Zheng Hong looked at Zheng Yong's back and shook his head slightly.

There is indeed a second Yijin Pill, but he didn't say it before, but it was not entirely to make Zheng Yong angry. The main reason was that the Yijin Pill was too rare, and he paid a lot of money to get it from the inner city. Yes, when warriors use Yijin Pills, the first one often has the best effect, but the second one is much different.

 Therefore, even the children of the big families in the inner city may not have the chance to use both pills. After all, the first one cannot break through, and the probability of breaking through with the second one is not very high.

Zheng Hong had previously considered that if Zheng Yong exhausted the medicinal power of the first one and failed to achieve the goal, he would keep the second one for other children of the Zheng family to use.

However, the Zheng family's generation is basically incompetent. Zheng Yong is the only one with the talent and qualifications.

 I don't know how many years it will take to wait for the next generation.

"we'll see."

Zheng Hong sighed.

If Zheng Yong could reach the level of Yijin, the difference would be huge. Even in the eyes of the big families in the inner city, he would be an important figure, and he would have a better chance of moving the Zheng family to the inner city.

With three considerations in mind, he decided to put his hope in Zheng Yong. After all, there may not be a more outstanding seedling in the future. Ten or twenty years passed by in a flash, and it was too long, and it was unknown what changes would happen along the way.
