Chapter 195 Passing on the Kung Fu
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Never mind this. Brother Zhou Yan's martial arts are indeed powerful. It would be great if he can kill the Tartars. Aren't we going to fight against the Yuan Dynasty? If we can persuade him to join us, we will be able to do a lot more in the future!"
The others nodded repeatedly: "That's right!"
At this time, many officers and soldiers came over after hearing the news. Xu Da said, "We are going to support Brother Zhou now."
Six or seven people quickly got off the roof and rushed into the fire. They killed any fleeing Mongolian warriors they saw and soon found Xin Zhen and Zhou Zhiruo. The Mongols were desperate and were gathering together to put up a last-ditch effort.
Xin Zhen saw everyone and smiled, "Why did you come in? Go first. I will kill the Tartar official and then come to meet you."
Xu Da said: "We need to leave quickly, the dog soldiers are coming."
Xin Zhen nodded and said, "Give me a moment."
After he finished speaking, Xin Zhen rushed into the crowd, and saw broken arms and limbs flying everywhere. After a moment, he beheaded the Mongolian official with a sword, and then walked back leisurely, saying, "Let's go."
Everyone hurried out, and when the officers and soldiers saw them, they surrounded them. Xin Zhen rushed forward to kill them, and Xu Da and others followed behind and attacked, immediately dispersing the officers and soldiers.
Everyone hurriedly ran into the darkness, left the city under the cover of night, rushed to the Medicine King Temple in the east of the city, and then all laughed out loud.
The Wu Liang brothers went into the Medicine King Temple and carried out a large vat, which contained large pieces of beef. Xin Zhen was a little surprised. Xu Da said with a smile, "This is the cow from Mr. Zhang's family. We are going to burn down their house tonight. We thought that the cow would inevitably burn to death, so we might as well take it and use it to fill our stomachs."
Xin Zhen laughed when he heard this.
Everyone worked together, some started a fire, some cut the meat, and some boiled water. They threw the beef into the pot and stewed it. Soon a strong aroma emerged.
Everyone sat around the fire, chatting and eating beef. Zhu Yuanzhang even took out a large bottle of wine from somewhere. Everyone was drinking and eating beef while laughing loudly. They were having a great time.
When they were enjoying the meal, Deng Yu suddenly asked, "Brother Zhou, what are your plans for the future? Are you going to join the uprising army to fight against the Yuan Dynasty?"
Everyone looked at Xin Zhen.
Xin Zhen shook his head and said, "I have other things to do. I have to go to Shaanxi first. Let's talk about it later. Do you plan to join the anti-Yuan volunteer army?"
Xu Da nodded and said, "That's right. The Tartars have been torturing the Central Plains for many years, and the people are living in misery. We have long had enough of this kind of life, and we will also fight against the Yuan Dynasty."
Xin Zhen clapped his hands and smiled, "You are all heroes, you should go and fight against the Yuan Dynasty. I wish you all the best in restoring the land of the Han people. When I finish my work here, I will definitely join in the great cause!"
Everyone cheered.
Xin Zhen smiled and said, "If you want to join the fight against the Yuan, your martial arts skills are not enough. I have a set of spear skills, a set of sword skills, and another set of internal skills that I can teach you. You can use them to fight against the Yuan. I wonder if you are interested in learning?"
Zhu Yuanzhang and others were overjoyed when they heard this. They saw how powerful Xin Zhen was. If they could learn a few tricks from such a master, they would have the ability to make a living in the future!
Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Da and others stood up and bowed to Xin Zhenxing to express their gratitude.
Xin Zhen stopped them and said, "You don't have to be polite. I can't join the rebel army with you for now. Teaching you martial arts is my way of showing my appreciation. I hope you can be nicer to the people in the future, and that will be worthy of me."
Everyone responded, "Of course, we have been bullied enough, how could we possibly bully ordinary people?" "Yes, we are ordinary people too. We just can't stand the oppression, so we are rising up this time. How could we possibly oppress ordinary people?" "..." Everyone promised.
Xin Zhen smiled and nodded, and then stayed in the Yaowang Temple for a few days to teach martial arts to Zhu Yuanzhang and others.
The inner skills that Xin Zhen gave them was Hunyuan Gong, and the spear skills were a set of simple spear skills. Although simple, they were very powerful. The same was true for the sword skills. Although simple, they were very powerful.
A few days later, Xin Zhen saw that everyone had learned almost everything, so he said goodbye to everyone. Everyone and Xin Zhen also said goodbye reluctantly.
Xin Zhen and Zhou Zhiruo left Fengyang and continued westward.
Perhaps it was because of the battles she experienced that Zhou Zhiruo had obviously grown up. Not only had her internal strength and swordsmanship improved, but her confidence had also increased.
On the way west, Zhou Zhiruo talked more and was no longer as restrained as before. She often asked Xin Zhen about the anti-Yuan war.
Xin Zhen naturally did not hesitate to talk about it. He explained the history of the Ming Dynasty and the events of the Yuan Dynasty in detail, combining them with the ideas of the great chivalrous men.
People’s inferiority complex usually comes from a lack of broad vision, which is why they are obsessed with their own origins. How can a person with a broad vision care about his or her origins?
It is said that a hero does not care about his origin. People with great ambitions only have the future in their eyes. They don’t care whether they are born poor or from a noble family. Even if they are from a noble family, they will inevitably become prisoners in the face of drastic changes of the times.
During the journey, Xin Zhen asked Zhou Zhiruo to consume Zixia's internal energy at any time, and then recover when extremely tired. After such training, Zhou Zhiruo's internal energy accumulated rapidly.
In addition, Xin Zhen deliberately controlled the pace of the journey, which made Zhou Zhiruo extremely tired but left her with enough time for sleep.
In addition, there was an ample supply of fish, meat, eggs, etc. Wherever he went, Xin Zhen would try the local specialties, so Zhou Zhiruo was able to replenish a lot of energy every day.
A lot of exercise and adequate diet made Zhou Zhiruo develop rapidly. In a short period of time, Zhou Zhiruo grew a lot taller. She was a head taller than when she just left Butterfly Valley.
Xin Zhen grew even faster. Perhaps it was the pure yang energy brought by the Chunyang Wuji Gong. Xin Zhen's height increased again. And perhaps because of the abundant yang energy, he also gained muscles.
Unlike other young men who have little flesh on their bodies, Xin Zhen looks quite strong and sturdy. At first glance, he does not look like a young man but more like a strong man.
The more Xin Zhen practiced Chunyang Wuji Gong, the more he was impressed by its magic.
After practicing the Pure Yang Wuji Gong, Xin Zhen became somewhat unaware of the difference between cold and heat.
When they entered Henan, it was already the cold winter season. Heavy snow fell in Henan and the rivers were frozen. Zhou Zhiruo put on thick winter clothes, but Xin Zhen still wore a thin shirt, which was enough to withstand the cold.
As Xin Zhen's internal strength gradually increased, the power of the Pure Yang Wuji Gong gradually became apparent.
From Xin Zhen's experience, the strength of Chunyang Wuji Gong lies in the word "pure". The internal force cultivated is condensed and does not disperse, and the quality of the internal force is extremely high.
