The heavens start from the bottle mountain

Chapter 12 Xieling Villa
……

Although there are cars for transportation, there are no roads in China in this era.Even those official roads have become potholes when they have been in disrepair for a long time.

So it's not that fast.

We set off early in the morning, and didn't see the shadow of Star City until the afternoon.

As the provincial capital of Sanxiang, it is not comparable to Xiangyin in terms of scale or climate.

However, the car didn't go in. After turning into a fork, it quickly entered a large and heavily guarded manor. It stopped in a [-]-level, bluestone-paved yard, and everyone got out of the car.

"Brother Xu, please follow me."

"Brother with money."

"Don't dare, please."

The two passed through the moon gate on the left, and two corridors appeared in front of them.

One goes straight ahead, the other turns left.

No matter which one, the courtyard is deep, and there are Xiling disciples with guns stationed at the key points.

Qian Dachuan strode forward, followed by another courtyard, passed through the moon gate, walked along the corridor to the end, and came to a hanging flower gate. After knocking, the closed door opened.

A tall, burly man appeared in front of him.

Qian Dachuan apologized and said with a smile: "I'm going to Qian Dachuan, the deputy rudder master of the Xiangyin sub-rudder, under the order of the young leader, to bring those who have passed the test to report."

The man subconsciously looked at Xu Rui who was following behind.

After taking a few glances, he backed away to get out of the way.

"come in."

Qian Dachuan walked in cautiously.

Xu Rui followed closely behind.

A not-so-big yard appeared in front of him.

On the opposite side are three main rooms, and on both sides are wing rooms.

Some flowers are planted around it.

It looks ordinary, but there are more guards in the yard than outside, which shows its importance.

"follow me."

"It's work."

The strong man in black led them into the left wing.

It can be seen that this is an office, and the surrounding shelves are full of files. A middle-aged man with a sharp breath and a crew cut is sitting at the desk and working.

Hearing the movement and looking up, Xu Rui instantly felt two deep eyes locked on him.

The ferocious eyes that seemed to be dormant in the cold, like a poisonous snake and a boa constrictor, made people get goosebumps all over their bodies.

Before, there was still a bit of a strong man in black, as if a mouse saw a cat, and it was very cute.

"Master, someone who has passed the test is here."

Qian Dachuan stepped forward quickly, with a respectful tone.

"Qian Dachuan, the deputy rudder master of the Xiangyin sub-rudder, has met the master Huatang."

"Xu Rui met Hall Master Hua."

The head of Huatang is Hua Maguai, the head of Hetang, one of the four halls of dragons, tigers, leopards and cranes, the chief rudder of Xiling. He holds great power and has won the trust of old leader Chen Yuntian.

Look up and down.

"You are very good."

"Thank you, Hall Master Hua, for your compliment."

After a slight nod, he turned his head.

"Luo Cheng."

The burly man in black responded quickly.

"You take him down and give it to Master Chen."

"Yes."

Turn around.

"Come with me."

Xu Rui nodded, bowed his hands, turned around and backed out.

Right now, he doesn't have the ability to be proud. In a completely unfamiliar environment, a little more etiquette would not hurt.

After the two left, Qian Dachuan took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it over carefully.

"This is what the rudder master asked me to bring to you, the hall master."

After taking it over and looking at it, he couldn't help laughing and said: "A student in trouble, he also knows a little bit of Taoism, which is interesting. No wonder he can pass the test first."

"Forgive me, Master. Our Xiangyin branch has been investigating for more than 20 days, but we still haven't been able to find out his origin..."

"It doesn't matter. Even if the chief rudder goes to investigate this man, he may not be able to find out. Moreover, no matter where he comes from or what his past is, once he enters Xiiling, he will not be able to escape from our grasp."

"Yes."

"Okay, you take a day off and go back to Xiangyin tomorrow."

"Thank you for the hall master's shirt."

Hua Maguai waved his hand, and Qian Dachuan retreated respectfully.

Following Luo Cheng through the corridors of the huge manor, he soon saw a large courtyard with a wall of more than four meters and the whole body was built of green bricks.

There is a post at three steps and a sentry at five steps around, and the defense is strict.

It is important at first glance.

When they came to the gate, the guard opened the closed courtyard gate after seeing Luo Cheng.

Follow in.

A vast house with three to four thousand square meters appeared in front of him.

The whole courtyard is paved with thick and solid bluestone. In the middle is a one-meter-high arena, surrounded by eighteen kinds of weapons such as knives, guns, swords and halberds;

On the north and south sides of the large courtyard are neat rows of stone houses without courtyards.From the outside, it is about [-] square meters.

A row of ten, a total of eight columns.

There are 160 rooms on both sides.

There are also a few small buildings in the corner, and I don't know the purpose.

The moment Xu Rui entered the door, loud shouts came suddenly.

Subconsciously looking in the direction of the sound, a group of shirtless and strong men, led by a half-century old man, raised their fists and kicked their legs, obviously practicing martial arts.

There was a trace of fire in his eyes.

After experiencing the dangers of the mass graves, he is interested in all kinds of cultivation that can strengthen his own strength, including martial arts.

Luo Cheng took him to the group of stone houses on the left, and found one in the last row.

Written outside the door, 'A 73'.

Push the door open and enter. In the 27 square meters space, there is a bed, a desk, two low stools, and nothing else.

"This is your room. If there is no accident in the future, you will live here."

"Yes."

Although simple, when he just graduated from university and lived in a village in the city, the conditions were not much better than here.

"I'll send the bedding in a while. This is the key to the house. Keep it."

Take this brass key that looks chic and old.

"If it is lost, report it in time for replacement."

Xu Rui nodded.

"Put down your salute and follow me."

He took him outside and walked straight towards the crowd practicing martial arts.

"Master Chen?"

The tone is respectful.

The old man who led the crowd to practice martial arts turned around, glanced at Luo Cheng, and then turned to Xu Rui.

After examining it, he nodded.

"Let him in."

"Then trouble you."

Turned.

"You stand in the crowd and practice with everyone."

Xu Rui just arrived here, so he naturally followed other people's arrangements.

Came to the back of the crowd and started practicing.

He doesn't have the slightest foundation in Chinese martial arts, so of course he is full of mistakes and omissions when practicing, making a fool of himself.

Seeing this, the old man frowned.

People who are old and have no martial arts background are the most difficult to teach.However, since he promised to do less, he will teach it with his heart.
