Chapter Nineteen: Flowing Clouds and Flying Claws
One trick, you can eat it all the time!
In the days that followed, Cheng Geng seemed bored, and devoted himself to studying the secret techniques of scouts. Once he went deeper and gradually deduced it, he could learn from one example and think about it more wonderful uses.
In that secret land, I always feel that I am too obsessed with the ancestral learning and the power of the secret technique is bound to be limited.
The only thing that made Cheng Geng puzzle was the mecha mathematics technique, which combined the ancient Qimen Dunjia, Hetu Luoshu, etc. The most important thing was the word mecha. It not only had hidden hidden and secret tracking techniques, but also had the most complicated ones. It not only covered the mecha manufacturing process, which not only covered the mecha mathematics, mineral selection, and fire-making and tempering techniques. I will not elaborate on the wide range of it.
In fact, it can be imagined that in ancient times, when marching and fighting, materials were relatively scarce. Except for the imperial court supplies, all iron woodworkers were set up by the army, especially for special army similar to scouts, who could only forge them themselves. This is the knowledge.
Scouts were spies in ancient times. In addition to secret reconnaissance, they were also responsible for crisis assassination tasks. Not to mention climbing mountains and ridges, building bridges in the water, moving stones and opening roads, etc., almost beyond cognition. Moreover, each dynasty has different uses and definitions of scouts, but inadvertently, they have broader requirements for scouts' abilities.
Some things, when you don’t have them, don’t matter. But once you have them, you never want to lose them again.
When Cheng Geng truly understood these scout techniques, he was deeply attracted and even lingered in the mysterious ocean all day long. He couldn't help but draw a flying claw diagram based on his own understanding, using his secret techniques, combined with the evolution of the iron sickle in the hands of the old monkey and his son, he even made some clever auxiliary ideas.
In recent days, Gu Qiu has been silent in the sword technique every day, and does not care about Cheng Geng's strangeness. Instead, Xu Fusheng always looked at Gu Qiu and kept sighing.
On that day, Cheng Geng ran towards Qin Tianzhen and did not come back until the afternoon. Then he hid in the room. In addition to eating, drinking, urinating, he kept locked himself in the room, not knowing what to do.
Xu Fusheng was most concerned about Cheng Geng, but there was a difference between the host and the guest. Cheng Geng didn't say it, and he was not inconvenient to ask more questions. Perhaps it was too boring. He always stared in the yard every day, and sometimes said a few words to Gu Qiu, and his words were filled with relief and enlightenment. However, Gu Qiu's stubborn eyes did not listen to his comfort.
In peace, there are always hidden winds and rains coming. In this seemingly harmonious days, there is an upcoming storm brewing. All that is lacking is the storm that fuels the fire.
At night, the stars were dotted with. Cheng Geng was playing with the flying claws in his hand and danced back and forth. Then he pressed the Jikuan on his arm, and gently threw it out with his other hand. With a whoosh, the flying claws popped out, and the fine steel wire made a whimpering sound. The flying claws rushed out. With a clang, the flying claws bounced against the wall, and sparks flew out.
Cheng Geng installed a spring forged by steel in the sash connected between his waist, which had a powerful ejection power. He removed the sash hidden at his waist, and the steel wire made of steel was shining in the dark iron.
He took back the machine with satisfaction, put it in his skin, then leaned over and blew out the oil lamp, lay on the bed and prepared to fall asleep, but a faint and almost imperceptible sound from the roof fell into his ears. He couldn't help but be stunned and jumped out of the bed.
He hurriedly ran to the yard and looked towards the roof. He saw a vigilant figure lowering his body. When he saw Cheng Geng clearly, he stood up.
Gu Qiu was wearing a tight suit and holding a long sword in her hand. She didn't understand why she was already very careful and was discovered by this guy. Since she had been exposed, it didn't matter. She glared at Cheng Geng and said, "It has nothing to do with you, so it's better not to speak out. If you tell my father, I won't spare you then." After that, without waiting for Cheng Geng to agree, he jumped out of the roof.
Cheng Geng had almost no need to think about it and knew her purpose. In order not to disturb Xu Fusheng, she did not walk through the door, but she did not want to escape from the process Geng's keen hearing.
Cheng Geng smiled bitterly and shook his head. It was nothing to do with it. The lantern was hung high. Thinking of Gu Qiu's appearance just now, Cheng Geng shook his head and sighed, "I'm not polite, I'm wasting my beauty." Then he closed the door, returned to the bedroom, and fell asleep on the bed.
But suddenly he thought of Ning Guoyuan, and he made up for the time. According to the plan, on this day, if he really did follow the plan, Ning Guoyuan should have captured Zhang Xiaolin. Suddenly, he woke up. Gu Qiu went there at this moment, perhaps just to see if he wanted to tell Xu Fusheng the news, but when he thought of Gu Qiu's angry eyes, he finally gave up his thoughts.
What is about to happen cannot be stopped. If God is so will, how can human power stop it? It can only follow the heavens. What is the result? When Gu Qiu comes back, the truth will be revealed. Why bother yourself so much? So he went back to the room and lay on the bed, covered his head and fell asleep. Perhaps he was so tired that he actually fell asleep peacefully.
The sky was filled with rays of light, with auspicious clouds floating in it, with auspicious aura. In the misty blue, a figure stepped from the sky. The vague figure could not cover up the elegance. The energy of energy burst from his body, covering the human eyes, and the outline of the person was still unable to be seen clearly.
A pair of empty big feet, trampled in the air, rumbled and swept, and the sky and the earth were shaken. A string of huge beads hung around the man's neck, emitting a holy light. His figure, which gradually enlarged from a distance, appeared more majestic and invincible.
His golden palm, holding a crystal clear stone, slowly stepped down and came towards Cheng Geng. Cheng Geng found that the palm-sized stone had clear edges and corners, and there seemed to be something hidden in the middle. When he looked closely, there was something that looked like a stone, which was confused and difficult to recognize.
Looking at it, the thing wandering in the middle seemed to be clouds, holy clouds. It seemed like a transparent skin wrapped in clouds.
The man nodded to Cheng Geng and signaled him to reach out. Cheng Geng mechanically stretched out his hands and took the strange stone. He took it like water, soft and weak, and cool.
Cheng Geng wanted to see the man's face clearly, but found that the cheeks that looked down at him were very blurry. He rubbed his eyes and wanted to see clearly, but he could only see the blurry smiling face. He stared at him again, and suddenly, the figure of the man disappeared, and a white skeleton man appeared. His terrifying and sunken eyes showed a terrifying faint light.
Cheng Geng shouted and woke up from his dream. The sunlight outside the window cast through the window and sprinkled on his cheeks. He rubbed his eyes hard and realized that it was getting late.
Cheng Geng didn't know why he had this dream, but the door was knocked. Cheng Geng responded in a hurry, and after dressing, he hurriedly walked out. He thought that Gu Qiu should be back.
Cheng Geng stretched out his waist and saw Xu Fusheng with an anxious look on his face. He was stunned and thought to himself, "Is there something unexpected?"
Xu Fusheng said anxiously, "Gu Qiu is gone, he must have taken revenge on Governor Zhang." Xu Fusheng's haggard cheeks were covered with wrinkles, and he looked old and old.
Unexpectedly, Gu Qiu had not come back yet, "Is there something unexpected?" Cheng Geng muttered in his heart, looked at Xu Fusheng, and asked, "Old Xu, I want to take the liberty to ask, what deep hatred does Gu Qiu and Governor Zhang have? Why does Gu Qiu have to kill Governor Zhang?" He did not want to increase Xu Fusheng's worries, so he pressed the inside story of knowing Gu Qiu's whereabouts, but this was an obvious fact, and Xu Fusheng did not need to over-guess it.
Xu Fusheng hesitated for a moment, and struggled very much, as if he was making a great decision. After a long time, he looked at the sky, sat on the stone pier, and slowly fell into memories.
Gu Liufeng was once a big family living in Anxi for generations. It is rumored that the ancestors of the Gu family made their fortunes and pre-Qin periods. After thousands of years of inheritance, they have become a giant in the entire Anxi City and have immeasurable wealth. Fortunately, the Gu family is not prosperous, otherwise they will not know what they will be like.
After Zhang Xiaolin quelled Liu Qingyu's chaos, the entire Anxi fell into rest and recuperation. After this war, the devastating blow brought to Anxi was not so hard because Zhang Xiaolin had the help of Cao Gang. However, if he wanted to repair the city wall and buy weapons, he had to have countless financial support. But after all, the money was not in the hands of warlords, in the bank, nor in the hands of ordinary people, but in the hands of these aristocratic merchants.
They used money to control and elevate their status, and even established their own arming to protect their wealth. Zhang Xiaolin used all kinds of tricks to deal with most of the merchants in Anxi City, asking them to lend money to themselves and slowly return it to them later. But there are always some people who are opposite to reality and they only care about their own interests.
Dozens of big merchants who depended on the Gu family hugged Gu Fengliu to fight against Zhang Xiaolin. Zhang Xiaolin's scholar was unwilling to hurt everyone's hearts with force, so he kept negotiating with these people. As a result, the merchants of the aristocratic families who had agreed to also began to develop negative emotions, and the situation was in a difficult situation.
Zhang Xiaolin knew that the most culprit of all this was Gu Fengliu. Gu Fengliu adhered to the family motto and supported the court very much. His ancestors made a fortune and had an inseparable relationship with the royal family. His family supported the imperial power for generations, but after Qingting fell, they waited for an opportunity to act and were also the biggest funder of Liu Qingyu Group. He had money, but he was unwilling to be with Zhang Xiaolin, which added obstacles to Qingting's restoration.
Zhang Xiaolin could no longer bear it and decided to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, teach Gu Fengliu some lessons and let him recognize the real thing. So he brought his own Hu Ben Gu Gu family.
Gu Fengliu has lived up to the reputation of Fengliu. He not only made friends with wealthy customers, but also won his confidants. He was full of talents, and some even had great influence on the new government at that time. All the warlords who had just emerged tried their best to win him over, but he was still unmoved when he was in Anxi with him.
A treasure passed down by the Gu family was a painting of ink paintings from pre-Qin ancestors. The artistic conception in the painting attracted countless famous officials to observe. Gu Fengliu was also naughty. Every year on August 15th, he took it out of the secret room of his home for everyone to enjoy. He could only view it from a distance and not get close to it, otherwise he would drive out the person.
It sounds too ridiculous to have a painting attracted countless famous scholars to observe, but how can scholars in the world guess it with common sense?
All the disasters arise!
