Zhang Xuan followed behind Zhu Yuanjiu and entered the Zhu family.
“Old man Zhu, this fake mountain of yours, it’s been sitting there for how many years, it’s time to fix it, otherwise I don’t know which day it’s going to collapse.” Zhang Xuan’s gaze swept the Zhu family stately garden and tasted the head.
Zhu family and Su family are the same ancient martial family, but the scale of Zhu family is much larger than Su family.
Inside the manor, there were rockery and small lakes with lotus flowers floating on the surface, and a pavilion in the center of the lake.
The whole manor, built a lot of houses, there are bungalows, there are buildings.
Said the manor, in fact, is similar to a small residential area, only this residential area, completely belong to the surname Zhu.
Inside the manor, there are stores, there are vegetable baskets, anything that should be available outside.
The so-called keep the capital, not stubborn, there can use the electric light conditions, who want to go back to the kerosene lamp, either pretentious, or brain bubbles.
The entire estate, roughly divided into three areas.
The largest piece, is the residential area, Zhang Xuan saw, the highest building, a total of eight floors, which are living in the people, each family, clearly divided, and some small second floor, ah, small villa, ah, is to Zhu family identity higher layer of people live, only for Zhu family made significant contributions to the people, can live here.
In addition to the residential area, there is also a livestock area, in which people planting, people breeding.
The third area, is the martial arts area, a huge square martial arts stage, as big as half a soccer field, filled with wooden stakes people, around the stage, put swords and other weapons.
Zhu family estate, crowded, there are men and women, old and young, not counting the nest in the home, just in the estate activities, there are more than a hundred people, the martial arts stage, a dozen Zhu family young generation, is a Zhu family under the teaching of the older generation, practicing fists and feet.
Zhang Xuan nodded and smiled, “Old man Zhu, you are living a life full of children and grandchildren.”
Zhu Yuanjiu face a touch of despondency, “children and grandchildren is not bad, but none of them have a career, if my children and grandchildren, one of them can catch up to one tenth of your achievements, even if I die, I will be able to laugh at the nine springs.”
Zhang Xuan smiled and did not say anything, he was not modest, because his achievements were indeed, beyond the reach of others.
Zhang Xuan followed Zhu Yuanjiu for two steps and asked, “Old man Zhu, do you know who is going to make a move against your Zhu family?”
When Zhu Yuanjiu heard Zhang Xuan bring up this topic, his expression became a bit more serious and shook his head, “I just heard the news, I’m afraid it’s related to that matter.”
Zhang Xuan guessed, “Is it the thing you told me about last time?”
“Exactly.” Zhu Yuanjiu nodded, “I’ll show you something else first.”
Zhu Yuanjiu led Zhang Xuan, to a study, this study was independent as a whole, there were no other houses in front and behind, the whole study was arranged like a library’s collection area, several bookshelves, filled with books.
Zhang Xuan swept a glance, these books placed on the shelves, not what famous books and so on, but some explanations, and the history of the Su family.
Zhu Yuanjiu walked to a bookshelf located in the most corner of the study, which had some dust on it.
Zhu Yuanjiu picked up a yellowing paper book, the whole book is sewn up with needle and thread, which shows its age.
Zhu Yuanjiu dusted off the book and handed it to Zhang Xuan, “Take a look, this is something that my grandfather recorded at the beginning.”
Zhang Xuan’s expression was a bit odd as he took the book, Zhu Yuanjiu’s grandfather? This has to go back to the middle of the Qing Dynasty, right?
Zhang Xuan casually opened a page, the Qing Dynasty’s own writing is Manchu, but not substantially used, the text at that time is mostly Chinese, only some write differently, and the format is from top to bottom, from right to left, stored to this day, some handwriting has been very fuzzy, but Zhang Xuan can still read.
“Today, I was hit by Chen Cheng’s fist, gas into the heart, long can not be expelled, wandering in the heart, seven days, not to move martial arts.”
Zhang Xuan turned the page again.
“The Central Plains swordsman Yu nick, challenge the major sects, no defeat, is really the first expert in martial arts, gas has been practiced to the peak, I break through the original realm today, I thought I could compete with Yu nick, is really my arrogant thinking.”
Zhang Xuan flipped through a few more pages, all in the form of first-person diary records, in these records, Zhang Xuan captured a keyword, Qi!
Zhu Yuanjiu’s Taiji, on almost every page, would mention Qi, and the strength of Qi represented the level of one’s strength.
Zhu Yuanjiu watched Zhang Xuan’s face change and spoke, “About Qi, do you know?”
Zhang Xuan returned the book to Zhu Yuanjiu and pondered for a few seconds, “I should have seen it, someone mentioned it to me at that time, but he was not talking about qi, but another way of speaking.”
Zhu Yuanjiu laughed self-deprecatingly, “Qi, is only our Chinese general term for it, elsewhere has its own name, in vain my Zhu family boasts of being an ancient martial arts family, in the end, we are just sitting in the well and watching the sky, my grandfather this book record, completely refresh my perception, Qi in their time, is something that people who practice martial arts will have. ”
“This record, when did you see it?” Zhang Xuan gave a puzzled cry.
“I’m ashamed to say it.” Zhu Yuanjiu shook his head, “This record, has always been stored in this study, I only saw it some time ago, and the kind of thing I want to show you, is also recorded in this record.”
“Take me to see that thing you mentioned.” Zhang Xuan’s brows furrowed.
When he went to the European King’s Association, Zhang Xuan and the president of the King’s Association said that it was a battle, in fact, it was more like talking about something, between the president of the King’s Association and Zhang Xuan, there was only one sparring move, and it was that one move that Zhang Xuan injured his wrist, and it has not healed to this day.
All this time, Zhang Xuan has felt that there is something, if anything, exists in his wrist, and I do not know what it is.
Now, Zhang Xuan already has a guess in his mind, that is, Qi!
According to Zhu Yuan Jiu’s grandfather in the books, Qi into the body, long can not be expelled, can not move martial arts.
Zhang Xuan although no one gave said, but his wrist, compared to before, is indeed a little unable to make force.
In fact, Zhang Xuan, not without a way to completely eliminate this strange feeling in the hand bowl, although it takes a little longer, but with his medical skills, or can do, but Zhang Xuan has not done so, because he very much want to figure out, what is it! From what!
The more powerful one is, the more one can appreciate the greatness of this world.
Zhang Xuan and Zhu Yuanjiu walked out of the study and got into a special car. What Zhu Yuanjiu wanted to show Zhang Xuan was not in the Zhu family.
The car drove out of the Zhu family manor garden and headed further away from the city.
