Chapter 885

The jade fish turned back into the simple appearance of a low-quality white jade carving, but Bai Lang remembered the vivid beauty when this thing was activated. "Should I throw it away?" Bai Lang thought for a while, and finally tucked it into his arms. At this time, Bai Lang found that the clothes on his body were the set of "ancient costumes" he wore before traveling, and naturally, the PPK pistol he carried was gone...

"Is this how 'modern' firearms are blocked?" Bai Lang laughed, his body was still the fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy appearance before traveling, but because of practicing martial arts, he looked like seventeen or eighteen. Bai Lang breathed in and out, and the internal force of the Golden Bell Shield circulated spontaneously, and there was a sound like a tiger purring in his breathing.

"Ha! The kung fu practiced in this body can actually be brought back!" Bai Lang was overjoyed and immediately felt that it was better to keep the jade fish. "The change in time still stays at the moment I traveled." This was the conclusion Bai Lang reached after going out to take a look—because those idlers didn't show any surprise after seeing him, it seemed that he didn't go for a few years and not return.

During the years of traveling, the little ointment he carried at the beginning had long been used up, so Bai Lang found the ointment distributed by the Changle Gang in his room, applied a layer to himself, and began to temper his strength. During this practice, he was very happy to find that the second level of his Golden Bell Shield began to loosen, and it seemed that he was going to rush through the meridians while the internal force was roaming.

At this time, Bai Lang said "Oops" and thought of an important thing, which was to quickly write down the secret manual of the Golden Bell Shield. Of course, the original of this secret manual also didn't travel over. Fortunately, this entire secret manual had been memorized by Bai Lang—including those diagrams, but a good memory is not as good as a bad pen, so it was better to write it down quickly.

As for whether it would be stolen or exposed? Bai Lang sneered at this—"I'm just a guy who mixed up to be a leader of the tooth firm thugs in the gang. Will anyone specifically pay attention to me to find out what kind of opportunity I got? Hahahaha." The situation was indeed like this. The Changle Gang didn't pay much attention to guys like them who belonged to the backbone gang members—this kind of guy belonged to the one who shouted and cheered.

Those who really do things for the gang to grab territory or other important matters are those like Mo Di who have entered the eyes of the people above, have their own talents, and are accepted as disciples by the elder-level figures in the gang to teach various divine skills and unique studies. These people are the ones who really have a future in the gang. Bai Lang himself knew that if there were no opportunities, he would be considered successful if he could be promoted to a deputy incense master by seniority in his life.

So giving him two road-goods secret manuals at the beginning and distributing bruise ointment monthly was already considered not thin for the gang to treat their gang members, not to mention that there were monthly money and extra money to take, which might be better than ordinary common people. Every month there was also the so-called "contribution," and when accumulated to a certain degree, it was possible to go to the hall of the gang's preaching elders to exchange for other martial arts secret manuals or pills.

However, now, Bai Lang, who practiced the Golden Bell Shield and opened up the small circulation, was already half a step above this kind of gang member—at this age, opening up the small circulation, he could be considered quite good. If he continued to practice hard in the future, with the progress of martial arts, there was hope for an incense master or even a deputy rudder master. However, thinking of Mo Di... Bai Lang could only smile bitterly. The starting point he had now, others had already reached a few years ago.

What level had Mo Di's martial arts reached at this time? Bai Lang couldn't think of it and didn't want to think about it. In short, it was definitely much stronger than him now. What Bai Lang had to do now was to practice hard while not showing it, striving to open up the second and third levels of the Golden Bell Shield—he was still quite confident about this. After all, three levels are a big level, and Bai Lang felt he had no problem with this initial big level.

As for practicing to the sixth level, it would probably be able to step into the level of an innate expert—Bai Lang felt that only when he reached that step could he truly know the mystery of the spread of martial arts in this world. "Perhaps only when I also start to step into this level can I know what the situation of these experts in the world is."

Now working as a thug in the tooth firm, although the news was still well-informed, ordinary people really didn't know the news involving the upper-level martial arts people. For example, Bai Lang only knew that there was a Heaven, Earth, and Human Ranking, and his own gang leader seemed to be listed in the Human Ranking, but he really didn't know the specific situation—because he focused on practicing martial arts on weekdays, he didn't specifically inquire about it.

Now it seemed that he had his own opportunity, and it seemed that there was really hope in the future.

The requirement for breaking through the Golden Bell Shield is to open up the meridians. The second level requires opening up the twelve regular meridians, so that the internal force can circulate endlessly in the meridians. It is best to open up the eight extraordinary meridians one by one, but it is not necessary to open up the Ren and Du meridians—opening up this is already half a step into the innate.

So what Bai Lang needs now is to constantly accumulate his internal force cultivation, the thicker the better—the Golden Bell Shield doesn't seem to be the best choice for accumulating internal force. It is a good hand at making internal force thick, and it is the same for fighting, but for purely practicing internal force and life-saving, it is still a bit insufficient.

If according to the nonsense that Bai Lang remembers, the Golden Bell Shield practices the body's essence and blood, and the one that practices true qi should be the Yijin Jing... However, Bai Lang doesn't have that thing in his hand, and forget it, anyway, the Golden Bell Shield practices a breath of true qi from the outside to the inside, which is more suitable for him, at least "it won't be worse than Hong Qi?" This thought is Bai Lang's confidence now.

However, Hong Qi has the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, and his personal martial arts wisdom is probably far above Bai Lang's... Bai Lang's current fighting style is only the Tiger Form true meaning derived from the Thirty-Two Road Long Fist and the Fist Classic, and there is really no unique skill that can be called a name. "Should I practice a set of equipment? What kind of weapon is suitable for me?" Bai Lang felt that relying solely on fists and feet was probably not enough, and he still had to learn a piece of equipment more or less.

However, there are many weapons, and the eighteen kinds of weapons are only a small part, "Long spear and halberd, knife, sword, stick, and club, which one should I learn?" Bai Lang felt it was necessary to think about it carefully, but soon he knew that this was purely wishful thinking... He wanted to learn sword techniques, but who would teach him? What kind of sword manual could he get? The same was true for spears and halberds. If he wanted to learn, there was no place to learn for a while. Figure it out himself? This was mostly a waste of time to walk the path that others had walked a long time ago.

All sword techniques have a thought in them, and all have their own concepts. If he explores it himself, maybe practicing that one trick is possible, but it is really difficult to understand the sword intent. In contrast, knife techniques are simpler, at least the threshold for entry is lower, just need to chop and stab... As for what concepts the subsequent complete knife techniques have, he can learn them later.

"Looking at it this way, can a sword be understood as a double-edged knife?" Bai Lang also thought so—this is not strange, at least the Western great sword or hand-and-a-half sword in his knowledge is actually indistinguishable from a knife and sword. ===== CHAPTER 886 =====
