Chapter 754: Team Quest

【You take out the Bowl and step forward to beg for alms!】

【You receive the Bowl's bonus; the young woman feels pity and gives you two copper coins.】

【You choose to continue begging...】

【A respectable woman passes by and gives you three copper coins...】

【A child holding candied haws passes by and gives you one copper coin...】

【A middle-aged woman passes by; she gives you ten copper coins and wants you to go to her house for a meal. You choose...】

【One, accept.】

What he practices is a minor fist style—Five Poison Fist!

Perhaps it is because they saw him smashing people with the Bowl and felt a bit of contempt?

【You prepare to...】

Just now, to act cool, too much 'Qi' was consumed; by the time he reached the vicinity of his home, there was not enough left.

Feng Ping specializes in Scorpion Tail Fist and Great Toad Qi, having cultivated these two branches of Five Poison Fist to the Peak of Perfection!

Under the moonlight, one could see Feng Ping's chest heaving violently, resembling a giant toad.

Feng Ping solemnly cups his hands: "Feng Ping of the Five Poison Fist, greetings, Senior!"

Every time the opponent steps on the pool, ripples like water lilies are left behind; his figure darts like a bird, suddenly performing a harrier flip, leaping four or five meters high to land on a concrete pillar with exposed steel bars!

"This lightness skill, it... it's impossible!"

【Wuguan apprenticeship quest, come quickly if interested—'People of the World'】

【After paying three copper coins for tea, you sit down; the waiter comes over to serve you and hands you a menu...】

【'I Am the Retired Emperor' uses the item—'Beast Trap'! The Wolf King fails to escape, and its evasion success rate decreases!】

Subsequently, among the options of returning the way he came, continuing to beg, and heading to the city gate, he chose to head to the city gate.

The scorching sun hangs high.

In his mind, however, he inexplicably thought of the life of daily training, sandbags, and wooden stakes from before...

"Sure enough, choosing leg techniques to increase movement and evasion... earned it, earned it."

"Don't ask if I'm there, just say what you have to say." 'I Am the Retired Emperor' replies very quickly.

He had wasted too much time previously; his martial arts must be picked back up, otherwise, his national tour plan might end with him being beaten to death by some expert!

【You arrive at Black Mountain together, find the Wolf King, and the battle begins!】

【You have achieved victory!】

Suddenly, a voice comes from the night wind.

'God, it wobbled... this piece of junk weapon is unusable.'

Aaron logs out of the game and chooses to send a private message to 'I Am the Retired Emperor': "Big Boss... are you there?"

【'Hero Spare My Life' uses 'Refined Ghost Head Blade' to attack the Wolf King, but the Wolf King dodges.】

If Feng Ping really came over to challenge him, he would have no choice but to turn tail and run, and his image as an expert would instantly collapse...

'Dreaming' wears a hat and a mask, standing with hands behind his back, maintaining the air of an expert.

'Damn... what kind of hellish trash game is this?'

【One, argue on grounds of reason】

A half-grown boy nearby leans over and gives a thumbs up.

He pounces downward!

Whoosh!

Feng Ping only feels a black Shadow flash by; a move of 'Scorpion Tail Swing' hits nothing but air, and his heart cannot help but tremble.

'So he's a martial arts maniac!'

'Dreaming' turns and leaves, his figure flickering like a ghost, walking across the water: "Remember... the future of Ancient martial arts lies in 'Ancient'!"

Bang bang!

【'Hero Spare My Life' executes 'Deadly Chain Finger', one finger striking the Wolf King squarely... The Wolf King turns its head to bite, and 'Hero Spare My Life' is severely injured!】

The upright and honorable Aaron righteously chooses one!

【You arrive at the teahouse, and the waiter hands you a 'Chicken Feather Urgent Dispatch'!】

【Two, silently endure】

【The Wolf King turns around, preparing to flee!】

Feng Ping looks down blankly, seeing that a mobile phone has appeared in his pocket, though he does not know when.

'Alas... the dungeon isn't exciting at all.'

Several players besieged a Wolf King together, and they finally succeeded.

Jincheng.

Upon seeing these menus, Aaron discovered more sub-options, such as... giving the waiter a copper coin, and he would help you pass a message, then establish a temporary chat channel that lasts for half an hour!

Furthermore, there is no way for players to add friends!

【'I Am the Retired Emperor' uses the item—'Hidden Weapon', one projectile striking the Wolf King's eye squarely; the Wolf King is blinded in one eye and enters a Berserk state!】

Feng Ping quietly walks out of the workers' dormitory and arrives at an open space, preparing to practice!

With his good physique for practicing martial arts, coming to the construction site to move bricks, he is definitely a capable hand.

【Five, Brothel】

Aaron mutters a complaint and continues looking at the options:

Fortunately, this time he is not dealing with the Wolf King alone; he has teammates!

That feeling of blood-pumping excitement and satisfaction from fist hitting flesh truly makes him reminisce, even causing him to start doubting... is this life of moving bricks every day, with a wife, children, and a warm bed, really what he wants?

Aaron's "Demon Heart Art" is ultimately just for controlling hormones, not brainwashing...

Suddenly, his expression froze there.

"Dreaming" performed a light-body technique, moving far away from the construction site, feeling the refreshing wind against his face, and was just about to let out a triumphant long whistle.

Aaron chose two.

【The Proficiency of "Heavenly Crippled Ghost Leg" has increased!】

【Feng Shangfei used a movement technique to step forward, grabbed the Bowl, and smashed it toward the Wolf King's head... The Wolf King swayed once, completely unharmed!】

"Hah! Ha!"

"Dreaming" pulled off his hat and mask, panting heavily: "Damn trash game... This crappy skill isn't even powerful; it only gives that little bit of Qi every day, who is that enough for..."

"A leg technique has reached Entering the Hall."

"Dreaming" made a judgment: "Fine... Such a person would accidentally kill someone in reality, better to send them into the game."

【Feng Shangfei performed "Heavenly Crippled Ghost Leg," using the move "Ghost Qi Heaven Net," kicking the Wolf King's vital point hard... The Wolf King is injured!】

Under the moonlight, Feng Ping exhaled and opened his stance, setting up his fist posture.

【"Hero Spare Me" took the wolf skin and wolf bones, and divided the worthless meat among you.】

"Work's over... time to eat!"

Even though in this era, ten years of practicing Wu is no match for a single gunshot!

But he still loved martial arts!

Night Curtain fell.

"In this game, it seems players can only communicate in specific areas, such as the city gate notice board and the tea house... but the city gate notice board doesn't have contact information, it's just a message board."

Counting the previous two bags, he had already carried a full three bags.

Feng Ping suddenly raised his head, a brilliant light flashing in his eyes.

It even led to some dissatisfaction and exclusion from fellow workers because of this.

"On this phone, I have already sent an invitation code; you can download and log into a game called 'Ancient'!"

Moreover, he had only learned this one Beginner-level "Water Floating" light-body technique.

【Blood Red performed "Plain and Unremarkable Bow and Arrow," shooting an arrow at the Wolf King... The Wolf King's fur was slightly damaged.】

【II. Weapon Shop】

This made his hot blood boil little by little.

【After paying the city entry fee, you successfully entered Tianlong City!】

【Sob sob sob... Help, looking for a bodyguard, paying in cash — "White White Rabbit"】

"Oh? You dare fight me? Are you not afraid of death?"

He liked to break through himself and challenge his limits!

"How about... I don't go back to my hometown first, and use the money from moving bricks to travel across the country? It just so happens... I had a plan before to challenge all the experts in Daxin! To pursue the breakthrough of Taoism in life and death..."

And at this moment, the opponent was so fast that he didn't even have time to react, and this match was a complete failure.

Accompanied by the foreman's shout, Feng Ping sat in a row by the roadside with other workers wearing yellow hard hats, burying his head in his rice.

【I. Tea House】

【The Wolf King attacked the surrounding people crazily, "Blood Red" was bitten to death!】

【The Wolf King has died!】

"Sorry, my Stomach is too good, I'm not used to eating soft rice."

"I saw your commission at the Tianlong City tea house."

Where his gaze reached, under an eave, a camera had been installed at some unknown time, and it was the latest model!

"Dreaming" touched his own numb face and, facing the camera, revealed a smile uglier than crying.

Feng Ping was so frightened he retreated three steps, his eyes filled not only with horror but also a surge of ecstasy!

As a Great Success practitioner of ancient martial arts, he deeply knew where the limits of martial arts lay.

But even so, it threw him into a daze, and he let out a miserable cry: "It hurts so much..."

Ever since he showed off his skills and knocked down a few workers who came to cause trouble, he had established his status at the construction site, even getting an extra chicken leg with his lunch box every day compared to others!

"Moving bricks is hard labor, but the more you move, the more you earn... If I work for another two months, I can go back to the countryside to prepare to build a house... Then marry a wife, and this life will have something to look forward to..."

"That's right, log into the game at 8 PM, wait for me to pull you... Sigh... This game requires items to form a party and pull people, luckily you are in the same city, the consumption is minimal..." "I Am the Retired Emperor" typed rapidly.

【II. Refuse.】

【The level of "Heavenly Crippled Ghost Leg" has increased, currently at "Furnace Fire Pure Green"!】

Aaron looked at the text automatically appearing on the phone and covered his face.

【III. Pharmacy】

Without the supernatural, so-called fighting, aside from technique, is just a game of who has greater strength and faster speed.

"Go to the brothel first... no, that's wrong, it's the tea house to take a look."

Suddenly, while crossing the residential area guardrail, his foot tripped, and he fell straight over.

Night.

Or rather... he had reignited his pursuit of Taoism!

"I..."

Feng Ping said loudly.

"Dreaming" climbed to his feet, brushed off his body, and prepared to leave.

"Who is it?"

But at this moment, he recalled the heroic posture he had displayed earlier when he used Martial Arts to take down a group of workers who were looking for trouble.

"What a Toad Technique!"

"What? You are also in Tianlong City? What kind of luck is this?" "I Am the Retired Emperor" immediately replied: "How is your Martial Arts training going?"

Bean-sized beads of sweat flowed down his cheeks and dripped directly into the muddy ground.

"What the hell, when was this camera installed? This is a scam!!!"

In reality, his Qi was very shallow and was slowly recovering.

……

【Suburban Wild Wolf BOSS, urgently need help... Requirement: a Martial Arts skill at Entering the Hall level or above, preferably equipped with an Artifact, otherwise do not come — "I Am the Retired Emperor"】

【You headed to the teahouse. The teahouse was bustling with people coming and going, among whom there might be players like you...】

After a period of time, Feng Ping gradually came to his senses.

【"Feng Shangfei" launched an attack on the Wolf King, picked up the Bowl and smashed it onto the Wolf King's head... The Wolf King swayed even more violently...】

……

Immediately following, a message board appeared.

A series of notifications made Aaron involuntarily reveal a faint smile.

"Ancient?" Feng Ping gripped his phone tightly: "I'll remember that!!!"

【The Wolf King bit toward "Feng Shangfei", "Feng Shangfei" used movement techniques to dodge... Evasion successful, "Feng Shangfei" did not take damage!】

Feng Ping continued eating, ignoring him.

This kind of Water Floating light-body technique was either magic or cheating!

But this pool was the place he was most familiar with, and he knew there were no mechanisms inside.

Aaron agreed on a time, feeling that he could finally observe a team-up in this text game.

"Brother Feng Ping, your brick-carrying is something else! How did you train for it?"

……

Aaron frowned.

At this moment, he saw a short, fat figure galloping over from the water pool at the other end of the construction site.

Splash!

【Sender "I Am the Retired Emperor", invites you to go to the suburbs to kill wolves, go or not?】

Although the other party did not seem very old, in Martial Arts there is no seniority based on age, the capable are the teachers: "I ask that the senior please enlighten me!"

【Note: Private fighting is not allowed in the city... Of course, you can choose to do it secretly, as long as you are not discovered by the City Guard Army...】

"Okay, boss, please carry me."

Even so, he was swift as a bird, moving things very quickly.

Taking the five images of the scorpion, snake, toad, spider, and centipede, and integrating them into the fist technique, the moves were ruthless; either don't make a move, or once a move is made, it is easy to injure or kill!

Among these, the Scorpion Fist is the hardest to defend against, and the Toad is for body training, which, when combined with the Breathing Technique, can slowly increase a Martial Artist's stamina.

"In pursuit of the Tao of Wu, I have no regrets even if I die a hundred times!"

【You chose to head to the suburbs to rendezvous with "I Am the Retired Emperor".】

【Four, Wuguan】

Although I am set as a newbie, isn't this situation a bit too miserable?

And that leap the other party made was definitely not fake!

"The path ahead for Martial Arts..."

At this moment, he finally broke through the shackles of his own hormones; what money, what reputation, what life... compared to the path ahead for the Tao of Wu, they were all fleeting clouds!

Tap tap!

On the construction site, Feng Ping was carrying a bag of cement on his shoulder.

Aaron widened his eyes: "What a scam... Fortunately, I still have my life, I'm not afraid."

Feng Ping walked on the construction site, silently comforting himself.

Aaron yawned, watching his game character and others work together to 'narrowly' take down the Wolf King.

Just now, if the other party hadn't sent a phone but had handed over a dagger instead, he would have been disemboweled!

【"I Am the Retired Emperor" took the most critical quest item — the Wolf Head!】

Fortunately, he was cautious and chose to perform his light-body techniques only in blind spots where there were neither people nor cameras.

Fortunately... he didn't fall right into the middle of the guardrail.

However, Feng Ping certainly wouldn't be afraid of these things.

A month of carrying bricks, and the hot blood is hard to cool!

"It's not that bad... I wouldn't joke around with my own life."

Feng Ping's footsteps were swift as he threw the cement bag on his shoulder onto the ground.

"Is that for real? Don't lie to me."

'Very good, so the quest is considered complete now, right?'

【You walk into the street, you prepare to head to...】

【Battle ended!】

"Dreaming" was teary-eyed.

【Three, I am the Son of the Wolf, you dare to kill wolves, I will fight you to the death!】

【IV. Unknown】
