Chapter 15 Hibernation (V)

　　Lu Sheng learned from Inspector Zhang for three days, after which he completely memorized the Heart Breaking Palm. 　　Then he went to the second master. 　　The second master introduced by Zhao Bo, surnamed Du, name Zhen, used to be the top expert in the last governor's office, a person from the same era as Inspector Zhang. 　　A hand of ninety nine eighty one swallows chasing the wind knife, fast as lightning. 　　Unfortunately ...... later, his hand tendon was inexplicably picked, and the person was ruined, and the same was childless, but he had no descendants because he did not marry, and he was introverted and silent. 　　Lu Sheng studied here with this one for four days. 　　The Ninety Nine Nine Eighty One Swallow Wind Chasing Blade was actually weaker than the Black Tiger Blade Technique in his eyes, but one more martial arts skill was always a good thing. 　　After that, he begged Uncle Zhao to take him one by one to the other established experts in that Jiu Lian City, especially the older generation experts. 　　After getting the approval of his old dad, Lu Quanan, one by one, using money to open the way, he learned one more Eight Precious Steps from the two, and the Twin Diamond Blade. 　　All of them were martial arts that were a cut weaker than the Black Tiger Blade Technique. 　　He also understood that, after all, Black Tiger Blade Zhao Bo, was also a top expert in Jiu Lian City, how could others reach his level so easily. 　　For two months in a row, Lu Sheng was diligently and persistently practicing all types of martial arts. 　　At the same time, he was also constantly recuperating his body, taking a large number of Yin Nourishing and Blood Nourishing medicines. 　　The family's spending on tonic medicines that had increased due to his martial arts training could amount to thousands of taels a month. This was an astronomical figure for an ordinary family. 　　It was good that this also got the approval of his old man, Lu Quan An, otherwise if he spent money like this, no matter how he was the son of a rich family, he would not be able to be so unscrupulous. 　　In the blink of an eye, summer passed, September fall arrived. 　　Lu Sheng had also come to this world for close to three months. 　　"Brother Sheng has really worked hard this period of time." 　　Uncle Zhao stroked his beard and looked at Lu Sheng who was practicing the Swallow Wind Chasing Blade on the school field. 　　Lu Sheng didn't utilize the modifier to change this set of knife techniques, he didn't move the modifier again for this period of time, he just fumbled alone on his own. 　　After all, the modifier was an external force, and he wanted to test what was the difference between the martial arts he had practiced hard and the martial arts he had modified. 　　It just so happened that the Swallow Wind Chasing Blade, a blade technique that wasn't difficult in the first place, with simple moves, was just right for him to slowly practice. 　　Swish! 　　Brush brush brush! 　　With several consecutive crunching sounds, the straw stakes around Lu Sheng were sliced off by several knives in the blink of an eye. 　　Lu Sheng held the small Guan Dao that was more than a meter long, grasped it with one arm, and slowly reversed the blade and clasped it at his back. It was considered to be the closing of the power. 　　"It's too late to practice martial arts, how can I catch up with the others if I don't work harder?" 　　Lu Sheng smiled. 　　"I have to thank you, Uncle Zhao, for these days." 　　Uncle Zhao waved his hand. 　　"I know that Brother Sheng you have the intention of collecting secret martial arts to grow your family, it's just that there are only so many people in this Jiu Lian City who could possibly give out martial arts, and the rest of the possibilities are very low. What are your plans next?" 　　Lu Sheng mused, allowing Xiao Xiao to trot over to wipe his sweat with a wet towel. 　　"Since JiuLian City ......" 　　"Not good! Not good!!!" Suddenly a house servant ran over towards the schoolyard in a hurry, his face pale and his mouth screaming. 　　"What's going on? What's all the yelling about!?" 　　A mansion guard went up to scold. Pulling that screaming house servant to the side, he carefully questioned him. 　　When the questioning became clear, that guard's face changed a bit as well, and he hurriedly ran over towards Lu Sheng's two men. 　　"Grand Duke, the second young miss fought with someone, and now we can't find anyone either!" This guard hurriedly exclaimed. 　　"What?!" 　　Lu Sheng froze. 　　He knew that something would happen when Lu Gently came back, but he didn't expect that he would mess up so quickly. 　　"Where is she? Who did she fight with?" 　　Uncle Zhao quickly asked solemnly. 　　"On Flower Willow Street, with a few merchant guards who were passing through the city!" 　　"Does the master know about this?" 　　"Not sure, but that boy also only just received the report, it was the second young miss's personal maid who ran to report it. The first thing he did was head over to your side, Grand Duke." 　　The guards hurriedly said. 　　All of them were orphans that Lu Quan'an had adopted and bought from childhood, nurtured from a young age, and their loyalty to the Lu Mansion was very high. 　　"Well done, there's no rush to inform father about this beforehand, I'll go over and take a look first." 　　Lu Sheng said in a deep voice. 　　"Second Miss is investigating the tragic case of the Xu Family, why would she fight with the guards of the merchant caravan?" Uncle Zhao was puzzled. 　　"Just go and take a look first." 　　Lu Sheng's face was calm. 　　He quickly summoned the household guards of the mansion, pulled ten people from them, and headed straight to Flower Willow Street. 　　Flower and Willow Street was the notorious fireworks and greenhouse district of Jiu Lian City, and it was unknown how Lu Gently investigated this place. 　　He rushed all the way there without stopping. 　　When Lu Sheng arrived, there was only a mess on the street, and two shopkeepers near the Lu family were leading people to pacify the surrounding vendors who were affected by the disaster. 　　"Compensate those who should compensate, apologize those who should apologize, don't let others look down on our Lu Family." 　　Lu Sheng commanded. 　　"Yes!" 　　These ten people who had been transferred out from the Lu Family hurriedly replied. 　　The crowd dispersed to do the aftermath. 　　Lu Sheng and Uncle Zhao, on the other hand, went to the street sidewalk to see where there were traces of the fight remaining. 　　"It's only been a short time since we left, Lightning's temper is already fiery, it's normal to be irritated a few times by small hooligans in a place like this, and make a move." Lu Sheng scrutinized the bloodstains on the ground. 　　There wasn't much blood, and he wasn't worried that it could be Gently's blood; with her skills, it wouldn't be a problem to deal with two merchant guards. 　　On the gray stone slab, there was a streak of dark red blood splattered on it, quite conspicuous in the sunlight. 　　Lu Sheng squatted down and gently dipped his hand into the blood, then sniffed it, and his brows tightened. 　　"What's wrong? Did you find anything?" Uncle Zhao came over and did the same as him, dipping his finger in the blood and sniffing. 　　"Normal human blood, nothing unusual." 　　"What I'm puzzled about isn't this ......" 　　Lu Sheng shook his head. 　　"What I'm puzzled about is that this amount of bleeding is a bit large, although Lightly is bad-tempered, but there is always a lightness in her hand. With a hand as heavy as this, normally she wouldn't be so reckless." 　　At this time the guards who went to the surrounding area to make amends also returned. 　　"Grand Duke, there is news. Someone saw Second Miss fighting two people with a sword, chasing them all the way out of the city! Someone said that the two people being chased were also murderers wanted by the government, not merchant guards at all!" 　　"I see." 　　Lu Sheng nodded. 　　"Let's go, go to the city gate and take a look, the closest city gate nearby, is the west gate, they should have gone out from there." 　　The group, along with Zhao Bo, rushed towards the west gate of the city. 　　About ten minutes later, the group rushed to the west gate, the sergeant guarding the city came over and greeted one of the guards at home, obviously recognizing them. 　　"Second Miss Lu chased all the way out towards Black Wind Ridge." 　　The sergeant gave important news. 　　Lu Sheng was about to bring people over to look for it, but just before he left the city and didn't take a few steps, he saw Lu Gently riding a horse, dragging the two people who were bundled together, and rushed over towards the city gate. 　　As soon as he saw Lu Sheng, Lu gently showed a winning color on his face. 　　"Big brother, what are you rushing over for? Aren't they just two small thieves? Do you still not trust my skills?" 　　She had changed into a white chivalrous girl's outfit, holding a silver scabbarded longsword in her hand, with a silver-edged belt tied around her thin waist. With her long hair up high, she looked valiant. 　　Lu Sheng stood at the city gates and waited for Lu Gently to ride his horse in front of him and rolled over and dismounted before he breathed a sigh of relief. 　　"Don't be so reckless in the future." 　　Although he wasn't the original Lu Sheng, Erniang's care for him during this period of time came from a sincere place, and he wasn't a heartless person. Naturally, he could see which ones were sincere and which ones were false. 　　Because of Erniang's sake, there was also a slight intention of caring for Lu Gently. 　　"Don't worry, these small thieves in JiuLian City, this young lady doesn't put it in her eyes yet!" 　　Lu Gently didn't care and said. 　　Lu Sheng looked at the two murderers on the ground who were bound by ropes, both of their faces were a little pale, they seemed to have lost a lot of blood, and at this time they were unconscious, and they didn't know if they were dead or what. 　　Just let a person is strange, the corner of their mouth, all with a faint arc, like ...... laughing? 　　Lu Sheng's heart secretly noted. 　　Seeing that Lu Gently was fine, he was not in a position to say anything more, perhaps he was making a fuss. 　　After continuing to instruct Lu Gently for a few more sentences, he and Uncle Zhao brought people back to the house again. 　　The days returned to their previous pace. 　　Every day he got up and practiced for three hours in the morning, practicing his sword skills. In the afternoon, after eating, he began practicing his footwork and the Heart Breaking Palm. 　　In the evening, he went back to his room to practice the Jade Crane Technique. 　　As for that Black Fury Technique, he still put it to a halt. 　　So repeatedly, when Uncle Zhao saw this, he also advised him to focus on practicing the same first, but Lu Sheng had his own plans. 　　After leaving all martial arts with options on the modifier. 　　He also began to raise the level of the Jade Crane Technique once more. 　　It was halfway through the night. 　　Lu Sheng lay on his back and his eyes slowly opened. 　　He sat up straight and looked outside the paper window. 　　Faint moonlight reflected in through the window, leaving a clear white mark on the bedroom floor. 　　Outside, the snoring of the guards on watch could be faintly heard. 　　The wind was very strong, blowing the leaves of the large trees in the courtyard to rattle. 　　Lu Sheng slowly sat up in his bed. 　　"This time is about right." 　　He listened carefully to the surrounding movements and did not find any possible disturbances. 　　"After such a long period of cultivation, my body's essence has reached its peak, and it's time to bring up the Jade Crane Technique." 　　These days, Lu Gently went around performing chivalrous deeds, either catching murderers or injuring thieves and adulterers, causing quite a commotion. 　　Just Lu Sheng look in the eyes, heart always have a kind of inexplicable sense of urgency, especially some time ago, he learned from Master Zhang patrol, once he was working as a constable, also encountered some bizarre cases, the latter although unsettled, but these cases have made him deeply impressed. 　　Collecting his thoughts, Lu Sheng mentally recited. 　　"Deep Blue." 　　A light blue interface appeared in front of him. 　　With a light touch, he pressed the modify button, then mentally focused on the options for the Jade Crane Technique. 　　"Raising one level!" 　　The status on the option jumped at once, easily jumping from one layer, to two. 　　Inside the body, a feeling of being emptied out surged out, as if one had overindulged many times in a very short period of time. 　　The line of sight also got a little dizzy, and that hot flashes feeling from before surged out again.
