chapter 7 marching boxing

Rhodes did not talk about how to arrange to eliminate the insect plague in Lingtian, but he talked about things that happened more than a hundred years ago as if reminiscing.

Although Sherwin felt a little strange, he still listened quietly.

"At that time, this place was deserted and no one lived at all. But one day, a cultivator from Donglin City was passing by and accidentally discovered a small vein of Feiyun Fire Copper."

According to Rhodes, more than a hundred years ago, there was a mineral vein buried in a mountain called "Fire Smoke Mountain" dozens of miles behind Feiyun Village, which was rich in Feiyun Fire Copper. This is an excellent spiritual material for making medium-grade mortal weapons. It is expensive. If it is transported to the city and sold, a piece of Feiyun Fire Copper the size of a baby's fist can be exchanged for three imperial silver coins.

There is no doubt that there is a huge wealth buried under this mine.

In order to excavate this mineral vein, some important cultivators from Donglin City went out together and captured many slaves to mine.

It took a full ten years for this mine vein to be excavated and completely abandoned. Those cultivators in Donglin City all returned with a full harvest.

Because they disliked the trouble, the big cultivators didn't care about the life and death of the mining slaves. They abandoned them all in this remote mountain village and left alone.

The village chief, Rhodes, is one of the surviving mining slaves, and the other villagers in the village are all descendants of the mining slaves who were abandoned here.

Feiyun Village is named after Feiyun Fire Bronze.

After hearing all this, Sherwin couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He had lived in that dark mine prison since he was a child, and he naturally knew how miserable the situation of mining slaves was.

The current head of Feiyun Village, Rhodes, turned out to be a slave in the mining industry, which really made Chen Xi a little surprised and vaguely impressed.

Abandoned in this wilderness back then, it was possible to carve out the current structure of Feiyun Village and allow the descendants of mining slaves to thrive. Not everyone could have such means and courage.

As if he could see what Sherwin was thinking, Rhodes waved his hand and laughed at himself: "I'm not as capable as you think. The reason why Feiyun Village is what it is today is entirely due to the people who lived in this courtyard back then. The credit of a spiritual pattern master."

As he spoke, Rhodes seemed to be feeling a little emotional and said: "It was the spirit pattern master who opened up the spirit fields for us back then and taught us how to plant spirit valleys. If not for this, all of us in Feiyun Village would have been hungry. Die in this wilderness."

Sherwin couldn't help but ask: "The environment here is so harsh and difficult, then why don't everyone leave here?"Rhodes shook his head: "This place is located deep in the Three Thousand Mountains outside the southwest border of the empire. It has been called the Land of Natural Caves since ancient times. I think It's not easy to leave. The nearest city alone is eight thousand miles away, and there are many dangers along the way, with ferocious beasts and poisonous insects lurking everywhere. Without the guidance of a powerful cultivator, no one can reach it alive."

Sherwin finally understood that although he had arrived in the territory of the Zi Yao Empire, he still faced many difficulties and dangers if he wanted to truly reach the crowded city.

However, Sherwin was not worried. As long as he lived, he would be able to achieve it one day.

At this time, Rhodes suddenly smiled, patted Sherwin on the shoulder and said: "Young man, I know you are not willing to stay here all your life, but I can guarantee that as long as you stay in Feiyun Village for one day, we will I will treat you as one of my own.”

Sherwin nodded seriously: "Don't worry, uncle Rhodes, I will treat everyone as my own."

Rhodes smiled heartily and said, "That's good."

Sherwin: "uncle Rhodes, without further ado, let's start arranging how to help everyone eliminate the pests in the spiritual field."

Rhodes nodded repeatedly: "That's very good."

On the same day, Sherwin, under the guidance of Rhodes, went to the six-acre spiritual field at the home of villager Maverick. Using the bone powder of the gold-eating rat as a guide, he once again carved a "Light-Drawing Spirit Pattern", which attracted the light of the sun to fall and eliminated all evil spirits in one fell swoop. Insect infestation in spiritual fields.

However, this completely consumed the little spiritual energy in Sherwin body, making him unable to continue.

He can only wait until tomorrow to continue helping other people in the village eliminate pests in the spiritual fields.

At noon, Maverick and his wife cooked sumptuous dishes and entertained Sherwin warmly to express his gratitude.

When leaving Maverick's home and walking on the path in the village, Sherwin saw from a distance that there was a flat field in the center of the village, where more than a dozen children were practicing martial arts.

The sun was scorching in the sky, and a group of children were all upper-body, their bronzed skin soaked with a glistening layer of sweat under the scorching sun.

But even so, no one complained, they were all concentrating on practicing a set of boxing techniques.

The moves of that boxing technique are simple, but they are wide open and close, powerful and powerful, sometimes like a galloping horse roaring, sometimes like a tiger and wolf attacking. Although those children are all seven or eight years old, they are quite skilled in this set of boxing skills. , rules and regulations are measured.

This made Sherwin a little surprised. He recognized this boxing technique, which was called "March Fist". It was the most popular basic boxing technique among the warriors of the Zi Yao Empire.

But Sherwin didn't expect that these children in Feiyun Village could actually practice such a set of boxing skills so well. It was obviously not comparable to some fancy fists and embroidered legs.

Because Sherwin was weak when he was young, Mr.Briggs taught him some martial arts skills to strengthen his body, including the Marching Fist.

However, after watching it for a while, Sherwin was still keenly aware of some differences. The marching fist practiced by those children was indeed well organized, but it seemed to have many flaws in the technique of exerting force. Although the power exerted was strong, it could not The power in the moves is somewhat scattered.

As the saying goes, "the form is dispersed but the spirit is not dispersed", the same is true for marching boxing. The strength of the fist should be concentrated and unified, and it should be emitted like thunder, so that it can present a powerful and vigorous aura of "cavalry riding through mountains and rivers, and an army conquering the world".

The "marching boxing" practiced by the children in front of them had some errors in the technique of exerting force, and the power of the boxing could not be "condensed", so it lost the powerful charm of rushing thunder.

If these children are allowed to continue practicing like this, although they can strengthen their bodies, it will be harmful to martial arts practice.

Sherwin thought for a while and finally shook his head. He still didn't know who taught these children how to practice, so naturally he couldn't step forward to correct them.

"Why, you also know something about Marching Fist"

At some point, village chief Rhodes came over and looked at Sherwin thoughtfully.

"Well, I also practiced it when I was young."

Sherwin nodded calmly, there was nothing to hide.

"Oh, what do you think of these little guys' cultivation?"

Rhodes said with great interest. He suddenly found that he could not understand the young man in front of him more and more. Not only did he know how to carve spiritual patterns, but he was also quite familiar with the Marching Fist, which was really unexpected.
