MTL - Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 6 City Guards Department

The sky is bright and clear.

 Woodshed.

Chen Mu fluttered a knife up and down, causing a whistling sound of wind.

He didn’t know how long he had been practicing until the ‘Experience +1’ ​​prompt popped up on the system panel. He stopped, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and smiled.

It has been a month since Zhang Hai's accident. During this month, Butcher Zhang and Chen Hong have been trying to rescue Zhang Hai, but in the end there has been no movement. He is still in prison, but he is fine for the time being.

As for the 'Youying' sister that Chen Hong mentioned, she never mentioned it again, and Chen Mu didn't ask about it. It was probably because Zhang Butcher blocked it, or because they didn't think much of him. There is no displeasure at all. After all, he is just a low-level servant. It is normal to look down on him. Although he is on the right path now, he has not yet shown his talent, let alone the king of heaven. The extent of giving him a high look.

 Everyone has his or her own ambitions, and there is no need to force them.

 In short, after practicing swordsmanship for nearly a month, I accumulated experience points little by little, and finally accumulated 1,000 points so far.

  It took one hundred experience points to upgrade the Guangfeng Sword Technique to the basic level, and three hundred points to go from the basic level to the minor level. As for the minor level to the Dacheng level, it required a full thousand points, which also cost him nearly two months of hard practice.

“Actually, I’m on the right track now in practicing swordsmanship. Even if no one guides me, I still know how to practice. As long as I have time to sharpen it, I can slowly practice it to a great level even without a system, but...”

 Chen Mu shook his head.

 He could actually save some experience points and try to use them later, but he still didn't plan to do so.

On the one hand, it would take at least several years to master the Guangfeng Sword Technique by practicing hard every day, which would be too long and too long. On the other hand, he now needs strength too much.

The Guangfeng Sword Technique, which is only a small achievement, really doesn't have much confidence in this chaotic world, but once it reaches Dacheng, it can at least cope with the siege of five or six armed gangsters. Even the most dangerous night patrol can be more powerful. Have some confidence.

After all, many bad guys, including thugs in some gangs, and even some nursing homes hired by wealthy families, are often at the level of masters in certain skills with fists, feet, swords and swords. Those who have truly mastered "shi" are quite prestigious. A good player.

 Took a deep breath.

With a thought, Chen Mu consumed all the one thousand experience points he had accumulated.

Hum!

 In an instant, the whole brain went blank.

From the beginning to the minor achievement of the Guangfeng Sword Technique, he was instilled with the memory of practicing hard for at least one spring and autumn, and this time from minor to advanced, it took several years of spring, summer, autumn, winter, cold and heat.

It was as if I was immersed in the scene, practicing hard day by day, practicing hard month by month, practicing swordsmanship in the spring breeze, practicing swordsmanship under summer, practicing swordsmanship above autumn frost, practicing swordsmanship between winter snow...spring and autumn repeated for several years. A moment.

By the time Chen Mu regained consciousness, his entire back was soaked with sweat, and he didn't even know how long he had been standing there in a daze.

 But when he held the sword tightly in his hand again, a feeling like a command in his arm suddenly emerged.

 Getting started with swordsmanship is just a matter of practicing the direction and details of the force and mastering the basic moves.

 Having achieved a certain level of swordsmanship, you will master all the moves and subsequent changes, be able to adapt to changes in actual combat, and be able to perform various moves and changes in a coherent manner. You can be regarded as a practitioner on the right path.

 And the sword skills are great...

This is the complete mastery of the art of Guangfeng Sword Technique. At this point, he is no longer limited to moves and changes. He has the ability to draw inferences about the moves themselves. They are flexible and changeable and can be used against enemies in battle, whether one-on-one or one-on-one. He can handle them skillfully against multiple opponents, or against different types of opponents such as fists, feet, swords, etc. He is already a truly powerful player.

Once activated, two or three armed gangsters will be directly killed by him, and five or six gangsters will be unable to get close.

 “I finally have some strength.”

Chen Mu felt the power he had at this time and couldn't help but smile a little.

Strength is the foundation for walking in troubled times. With this kind of ability, it can be said that he can deal with a lot more situations. Even if he loses his status as a sergeant, he doesn't have to worry about ruffians or even gangsters causing trouble.

At this level, you are fully capable of working as a thug for some forces, or working as a nurse for others, and earn some money.

certainly.

Chen Mu will not be complacent because of this small achievement. With his mastery of swordsmanship, he only has a little ability to protect himself and survive by his own abilities, but it is not possible to completely change his status. arrive.

Unless you practice the Guangfeng Sword Technique to perfection and develop a "movement" that only one martial artist can understand and few people can understand, then you have the foundation, whether it is to take a step forward to make a difference, or to leave the City Guards on your own. You have the ability to venture into the world.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　.

Chen Mu calmed down his breathing, then took out a piece of dried meat from under the stove, chewed it and swallowed it with water. He has also spent a lot of money in the past three months.

 I spent all the little money I had barely accumulated in the past two years to buy meat. After all, practicing swordsmanship is tiring, not only to gain experience points, but also to exercise my own body, so I must absorb more nutrients.

 And the effect this brings is also significant.

At least under Chen Mu's clothes, after more than three months of hard training and supplementing meat from time to time, the entire outline has become larger. Although it has not turned into the image of bulging muscles, at least it is no longer as big as before. Thin.

But the money he had worked so hard to save has basically been used up. Chen Mu has recently been thinking about finding a time to take the "Gust Sword Technique" to a **** shop and sell it. Anyway, he has memorized the map clearly, and it has no value anymore.

even.

He was also thinking that if he had the chance, he would buy a few more martial arts books from the **** shop to see if the system could read them for him... Unfortunately, although this thing was not very valuable, if he wanted to buy it, at least It would have to start with ten taels of silver, which he couldn't afford now.

Moreover, if you sell it, you can only sell it for two or three taels of silver. It can only be said that the **** shop's heart is not generally dark.

“Okay, it’s getting late, so we’d better go to the City Guards Department first.”

Chen Mu thought for a moment, then put away the brochure on the Guangfeng Knife Technique, cut out some of the remaining dried meat, and hid the rest. Then he opened the pot, packed the porridge and rice, and went to the back room to wake Chen Yue up. Have a meal.

He eats meat, so naturally he can't let his sister starve, but he can't supply too much. It's not time yet, so the brother and sister can only save it. After a while, they won't have to worry about this kind of thing.

Chen Yue woke up from her sleep, stretched a little, and then opened her little arms to let Chen Mu hug her. However, as she grew older, her body gradually grew even though she was poor and undernourished. Mu has rarely done anything too intimate.

However, Chen Yue persisted and finally hugged her helplessly and asked her to eat well.

after.

He changed into his official clothes, stepped on his official knife, and walked out.

Chen Yue fastened the door behind her, watched Chen Mu's back disappear through the crack in the door, and then reluctantly slipped back into the house.

 …

The Yucheng where Chen Mu is located is actually very large. Not only is it divided into two inner and outer cities, the outer city is also divided into four parts: southeast, northwest and southeast. Each part is divided into ten "li" respectively. The size of each "li" is different. It is similar to a township outside the city, except that it is called "li" inside the city, and it is called a township outside.

 Therefore, in addition to the four "City Guard General Departments" in the southeast, northwest and northwest, each city also has a city guard branch, which is under the control of a police officer and has several police officers and dozens of police officers under his jurisdiction.

The place where Chen Mu is located is "Jiutiaoli", which belongs to the Jiutiaoli City Wei Department.

Nowadays, the government is corrupt and chaotic. The city guards have almost become the private soldiers of some forces in the inner city. They often pay no attention to the security of the city and will only take action unless there is an order from above.

Kyujo Sato Castle Guards is located on the north side of an open square.

 The square is the vegetable market in Kujoli, and it is bustling with people during the day. In the past, there were occasionally some criminal thieves who were sentenced to death by beheading, beheading their heads here in public, but in recent years it has become less and less popular.

All the way to the north of the vegetable market, there is a row of tall bluestone walls. There are some cracks on the wall, and it feels a bit disrepaired. Compared with the City Health Department, it is obviously much mediocre, but it is still better than ordinary residents. The courtyard should be more solemn and solemn.

There are no tall buildings in the Jiutiaoli City Guards in the bluestone courtyard wall, only some relatively clean houses.

 Chen Mu walked into the City Guard Department and first changed the "value badge" for today's duty, which is also the "sign-in". Then he went to the yard behind the house to look for Liu Song, Li Tie and others in the same shift.

However, when I turned into the yard behind the house, I saw that something seemed different today. The many policemen who usually drank large bowls of bitter tea here were clustered together, and a young policeman was Surrounded in the middle, it was very lively.

Chen Mu raised his eyebrows slightly.

The young police officer surrounded by everyone is called Ren Yan. He also knows him, but he is not on the same team as him, so he doesn't have much contact with him on weekdays. However, he is two years younger than him and is the youngest here. of servants.

“Chen Er is here, come on, let’s have a drink of tea and rest first.”

Liu Song and Li Tie, who were sitting under a huge locust tree, saw Chen Mu walking over and immediately greeted him with a smile.

Chen Mu then walked over and sat down next to the two of them. Then he noticed that the guards gathered around Ren Yan were basically the younger people here. The older ones like Liu Song and Li Tie were in their forties. No one, both young and old, came over.

Chen Mu picked up the bowl and took a sip of bitter tea, then looked at the distance: "This is..."

Liu Song chuckled and said: "Ren Yan is lucky. Not long ago, his father accidentally met a noble man and gained some connections. The day before yesterday, he arranged for Ren Yan to learn sword skills at the 'Kaishan Martial Arts School' in the inner city. Now No, all the young people in our department want to join in and see if they can follow suit and let Ren Yan give guidance."
