Chapter 4 Fuyan Town, the Court and the Jianghu
In this town called Fuyan Town, Lv Xingshi got a lot of information.
This world is a world where the court and the martial arts world coexist. The presence of the Dasong court is not very strong, and it is more like being behind the scenes.
There are all kinds of sects in the martial arts world, large and small.
As for how high the martial arts of this martial artist is, it seems to be quite average.
Moving mountains and filling the sea is fine, but flying over eaves and walking on walls is good, so it seems that the upper limit is not very high.
But Lv Xingshi always feels that something is wrong. Just the innate characteristics of this peerless genius represent a problem.
He has observed that the root bone of a normal person is about 1, and the highest will not exceed 2.
A person's physical fitness is very terrifying, not to mention a hundred times, even ten times.
So this is a low-level martial arts world where you can only fly over eaves and walk on walls. Lv Xingshi actually doesn't believe it.
This is the current performance, but it is precisely because of this that although the court is low-key, it is actually very mysterious in Lv Xingshi's eyes.
For example, hot weapons such as cannons and bird guns are already available. No matter how good the people in the martial arts world are, they are just like paper in front of these things.
The second is armor and strong crossbows, which can also stop people in the martial arts world.
Not to mention the organized army, wherever they pass, people in the martial arts world will flee.
People in the martial arts world are not without advantages. With their own mobility, they can also carry out decapitation operations very smoothly.
But most of the time, the martial arts world and the court are two interactive lines.
The two sides have influence on each other, but rarely interfere.
Lu Xingshi also saw that these martial arts sects are actually more like a combination of local tyrants and monks and temples. They have a certain degree of autonomy if they do not pay taxes, but they also have the obligation to cooperate with the court.
Moreover, the court has cultivated a good sense of belonging. Although they cannot be loyal to the court, most sects are also righteous, with the purpose of protecting the country and the people, and helping the weak, even if they are just talking.
Jianghu people also have their own set of rules of conduct, such as Jianghu affairs, or not to bring disaster to the family, etc., which is a relatively contradictory group.
The court also recruited many Jianghu masters, and even the heads and elders of famous sects would actually hold posts in the court to achieve a balance between the black and white.
In addition to the court and sects, there are gangs. The big gangs can be compared to famous sects, and the small ones are just a group of hooligans.
Real gangs are similar to sects, but they are more commercial in nature, operating with water transport, medicinal materials, etc., which can be said to be chambers of commerce.
Lu Xingshi also saw a martial arts hall in Fuyan Town, which is a lower-level substitute for the sect. For money, it will teach some common martial arts, provide corresponding personnel for wealthy businessmen and gangs, or help train guards.
There are also their own hidden martial arts, but these are not easily taught.
It can only be said that the Jianghu people are very cherishing, and some even keep a hand for their disciples.
Therefore, it is not so easy to obtain a complete inheritance.
Lu Xingshi is very glad that he chose the innate characteristic of sect inheritance, and with the cliff jumping adventure as a supplement, at least he does not have to worry about the problem of skills.
As for the level division of Jianghu people, in fact, there is no flow, third-rate, second-rate, first-rate and master.
This is not strength or realm, but reputation, the reputation gained by fighting, and there is no detailed division of strength realm.
The first-rate is the top master, and the master is the person who founded a sect and has a very high reputation.
His series of achievements from the beginning to the end are related to this reputation.
In fact, you don’t need to be able to fight to become a master. As long as you know marketing, packaging and corresponding public opinion, you can create it, but doing so will be life-threatening.
Because there will be people coming to challenge, these people are all well-known figures, and they are all famous. If it is really an empty shell, it is very likely that they will be beaten to death by the other party.
The struggles between Jianghu people will not be managed by the local government set up by the court. This is the so-called Jianghu affairs.
After gathering almost all the intelligence, Lu Xingshi's next task was to open the map and find some martial arts.
"There are currently two most basic exercises, one is "Qi Yin Shu" and the other is "Tu Na Gong."
Lu Xingshi plays a martial arts game, so he must focus on martial arts. These two books are the most common ones among the common ones, with the most people practicing them and the simplest ones.
"Qi Yin Shu" is an external skill, and "Tu Na Gong" is an internal skill, but the price is not cheap."
Common goods are right, but the carrier is expensive. Books are not available to the lower class in any ancient world.
Therefore, one book costs one or two taels of silver.
Of course, you can also find someone to teach you. The instructors in the martial arts school will teach you, but they charge more. Practicing martial arts is a big expense. Practicing Taoism will ruin your family.
Moreover, the martial arts school does not teach these two exercises. They have their own unique basic martial arts, which are much stronger than these two exercises.
"So I have to get two taels, no, it should be ten taels of silver."
For the sake of caution, he can't live without two martial arts. If he relies on his two legs to open the map, he might die suddenly.
The orthodox teachings of the big sect on him need to be triggered, and it won't happen if you wait... Well, it's possible to wait, but it's probably a bit difficult.
So he planned to buy a mule, forget about horses, because they were too expensive and he couldn't afford them.
In ancient times, horses were equivalent to modern cars. Even inferior horses were not cheap, and more importantly, they were troublesome to raise, unlike mules, which were more cost-effective.
"Then I can only sell some things..." Lu Xingshi looked at the pile of agricultural and sideline products in his game warehouse, especially chickens, ducks, fish and meat, which were hard currencies in ancient times. In addition, he sold vegetables and fruits from various worlds to restaurants or local big families or even martial arts schools, and he was guaranteed to make money.
One family sold ten taels, and ten families sold one hundred taels.
"It's just that I, an outsider, am easy to be targeted." Lu Xingshi was not a local in Fuyan Town, but a stranger. In addition, he had no martial arts skills and was alone. He took out so many supplies and had a hundred taels of silver on him. He was simply a big fat sheep.
Nothing would be surprising.
"Let's take it one step at a time. With my current physique, even martial artists may not be able to beat me."
Bone, which also represents corresponding attributes such as strength, agility and body, does not only represent potential.
So he actually has a physical level far beyond that of ordinary people. As for comprehension, it should improve his concentration, logic, learning ability and other abilities.
The concentration is not clear yet, and it may have to wait until he starts practicing martial arts to see it.
