Chapter 74 Moving into the Martial Arts School
Ding Yi stood there, not saying a word, but falling into silence.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths... a full dozen breaths passed, but Ding Yi didn't move an inch.
The men from the inner city patrol who were standing nearby thought Ding Yi was going to resist and had already drawn their swords, ready to fight. But after waiting for a long time, Ding Yi did not make any move and just stood there as if he had lost his mind.
"Get out of here!"
Finally, the man grew impatient and shouted again.
Ding Yi then looked up at the man, smiled, and walked out of the passage without looking back.
"This person..."
The three inner city inspectors were a little surprised to see Ding Yi leave so suddenly, but they didn't think much of it, shook their heads, and went into the cave.
As soon as the three entered the cave, they saw Guo Fengchun kneeling on the ground with his head drooping, his arms stretched long by chains. One of them quickly went forward to check on him, then called out to the others:
"fainted."
Upon hearing this, the leader slowly walked over, grabbed Guo Fengchun by the hair and pulled him up, saying with some confusion:
"That kid went all out just now?"
"How to do?"
Someone next to him asked.
"We'll leave after we feed them."
As the leader spoke, he took out an oil paper package from his pocket.
Carefully opened, I saw that the oil paper package contained some white powder!
The leader glanced around, then picked up the bowl that Ding Yi had just used, only to find that the water inside had been drunk and there was blood on the rim of the bowl. He immediately frowned.
But then, a cold smile appeared on his lips, and he pulled down his pants and started urinating into the bowl.
After urinating, he pulled up his pants, picked up the bowl, and walked back to Guo Fengchun's side. He then pinched Guo Fengchun's mouth, poured the white powder into it, and then fed him the urine from the bowl.
After doing all this, the three began to skillfully clean up the traces in the room. In just a dozen breaths, they had erased all the traces in the room. Even if professional investigators came, they would not be able to find any clues in the cell at this moment.
Finally, the leader opened Guo Fengchun's eyelids and found that his eyes were already bloodshot. Knowing that the drug was taking effect, he waved his hand and hurriedly led the two men out the door.
As the three passed the rest area, they said to the jailer on duty:
"The prisoner has fainted. We'll come back when he wakes up!"
The jailer quickly responded. Although he knew that the interrogation process of these three people was not in accordance with the rules, these three people were very powerful and not someone he, a mere jailer, could afford to offend.
On the other side, Ding Yi, who had just left the dungeon, did not know who had commissioned the three men, but he could roughly guess what they were going to do.
"I never imagined that in such a small county town, especially in such a chaotic world, there would be so much intrigue and backstabbing. It seems that as long as people's hearts remain unchanged, history will continue to repeat itself."
Ding Yi sighed inwardly and prepared to go to the martial arts school to tell Bai Wangyun that he wanted to move in.
As a true disciple, as long as you live in the martial arts school, you will be provided with a separate room, which is quite large, and there will even be maids and servants to serve you.
Before Ding Yi had become a true disciple, he could only live in a dormitory with his fellow disciples, which is why he chose to travel every day.
While living at the martial arts gym is still somewhat uncomfortable, it's at least much safer now.
Ding Yi, carrying his bundle, went straight to the martial arts school, only to find his fellow students still practicing their punches diligently in the courtyard.
It seemed that Ding Yi's meteoric rise had spurred them on; the usually lazy group now wore serious expressions, which surprised Ding Yi quite a bit.
When they saw Ding Yi enter the courtyard, the others were all taken aback, and then they called out "Senior Brother Ding" one after another.
Upon hearing this, Ding Yi realized that as a true disciple, his status was far above theirs, and they could only call him senior brother at this moment, making Xue Bao the youngest junior brother.
Where is Senior Brother Cui?
Ding Yi looked around but couldn't find Cui Wancheng, which puzzled him.
"Senior Brother Cui has gone to the inner city."
Huang Xuyang quickly replied.
"I heard she went to work as a retainer in the Zhao family!"
Someone else said.
"The Zhao family..."
Ding Yi nodded slightly upon hearing this.
Within the inner city of Qingfeng County, there are three major families: the Zhao family, the Ma family, and the Sun family.
Within this inner city, besides the county magistrate and the supervisory office, they held the most power.
The Zhao family controlled the salt and rice trade in the entire county, the Ma family was backed by the Yin-Yang Palace, which controlled the elixir trade, and the Sun family was backed by Magistrate Wang Pingshan, who controlled the ironware and clothing trade.
It could be said that the Zhao family was the weakest among them, but for ordinary people, they were still a behemoth.
"Senior Brother Ding, are you leaving again for lunch today? My treat!"
Huang Xuyang shouted again at this moment.
"No, I have to patrol the streets this afternoon, so I won't eat lunch."
Ding Yi smiled and shook his head, then walked towards the side room in the backyard.
When they arrived at the backyard, Ding Yi found Bai Wangyun sitting there drinking tea as usual, and quickly stepped forward, bowing and saying:
"Master, there is something I want to say."
Bai Wangyun put down the teapot, glanced at Ding Yi, and then said with a smile:
"Do you want to come back and live here?"
"what?"
Ding Yi was taken aback and couldn't help but look up at Bai Wangyun.
"With such a commotion last night, all the prominent people in Qingfeng County know about it. Fine, you can stay here again. I'll have Xiao Luo arrange a side room for you."
Bai Wangyun spoke slowly.
"Thank you Master!"
Ding Yi was surprised, thinking to himself that this martial artist in the Blood Exchange Realm was not only highly skilled, but probably also had a small circle within him to pass on information. At the same time, he was glad that he had really gotten a good deal by becoming an apprentice. He only paid forty taels of silver to get a Blood Exchange bodyguard, which was definitely not a loss.
"Practice your boxing diligently. Once you enter the Internal Organ Refinement stage, you will truly undergo a complete transformation!"
Bai Wangyun glanced at Ding Yi, then added a reminder.
Ding Yi's joining the Patrol Division at this moment was, in principle, somewhat unavoidable for Bai Wangyun.
After all, he had to patrol during the day, so he only had time to practice his skills at night.
But everyone has their own choices. As a master, Bai Wangyun can only do his best to teach his disciple well. However, martial arts training consumes a lot of money and precious medicines. Without a proper job, how can he afford it?
"Disciple understands."
Ding Yi quickly bowed again and said.
And so, Ding Yi settled down at the martial arts school.
At night, Ding Yi resumed the process of decocting the medicine.
Although he can now refine the Yin-Yang Fiend Bone Forging every night, this does not conflict with the effects of the enhanced Qi and Blood Powder. With both methods working together, the bone forging speed is naturally faster.
At the same time, the White Ape Overturning Python Fist also needs to find a way to improve its level.
According to Bai Wangyun, the reason why refining the internal organs is a leap forward for martial artists is entirely due to the compression of the body's qi and blood by the skin and periosteum, which nurtures the internal energy within the organs.
This internal force is related to the force of the fist; whatever fist style one practices, that's the kind of force one will generate.
The higher one's proficiency in this boxing technique, the faster one can develop power, hence the saying, "Blood flows through the five internal organs, and the power of the fist travels throughout the body."
After a martial artist enters the stage of internal organ refinement, he needs to use the power of his fists to suppress the flow of qi and blood into his internal organs. Over time, he can accumulate a trace of internal energy. Therefore, a good fist technique is extremely important for a martial artist's internal organ refinement.
However, different boxing styles are naturally different, so the level of internal organ cultivation will vary depending on the strength of the internal organs.
Considering the 108 Calamities Stars, there are 108 major types of internal energy and over 3,000 minor types. Add to that the martial artists, and there are probably tens of thousands of types of internal energy in the world.
This made Ding Yi sigh. It was already difficult for a martial artist to refine their internal organs, and they were also subject to many factors such as fist techniques and movement skills. No wonder there were so few martial artists who could reach the Immortal Realm. This path was really too difficult.
