If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 872: A Dangerous Situation
Xiaoyu was very satisfied with her performance just now.

Especially when she saw Yong Chi's expression change and Liu Laosan kowtow respectfully, she felt more and more that the hard work of worshipping her adoptive father as a "little Taoist priest" in the northern part of Shenzhou in the past few months was so worthwhile.

Well, Yong Chi did not trigger the Great Destruction of Father, but Yong Chi’s skills had already been broken by her.

If Yong Chi had practiced a more unconventional martial art, she would not have the right to show off now.

However, Yong Chi’s fundamental method is the “Fire Crow Power” which is “the most popular high-end method in the Central Plains”.

That is the core skill of Marquis Lieyang's Fire Crow Army.

The level of "Fire Crow Power" is very high and can be cultivated to the peak of human immortal (the previous peak was the immortal martial arts form).

But in China, it is almost everywhere.

The two are not contradictory.

It is relatively rare in the Quicksand Region, but not unique.

In China, especially in the Central Plains, there are too many good family boys who have no inheritance and are sent to county towns by the court to practice this martial art.

There are also "Xuanwu Zhengang", "Ten Thousand Trees in the Forest", "White Tiger Sword Qi", "Nine Yuan Golden Body" and so on.

The five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth were promoted by the Emperor's government to the "martial arts academy" in every county in China.

In Xiaoyu's previous life, there was a very famous football club in Europe called "Barcelona".

Barcelona's playing style is mainly based on passing and controlling the ball, which is the Tiki-Taka tactic.

A complete football club has professional teams (such as Ronaldo and Messi) and youth training players (young players who are still learning).

Barcelona's home team has always used the Tiki-Taka tactics, so its youth training is also based on the Tiki-Taka tactics, and all young players are trained around this tactic.

In this way, when the young players grow up and show their talents, they can seamlessly join the main team and directly integrate into the main team's tactical system, and they can be combat-ready as soon as they join the team.

It's all the same.

Emperor Ying Zheng promoted the "advanced and common" martial arts in the "Martial Academy" in order to train reserve forces for the Qin army.

Even though Marquis Lieyang's Fire Crow Army was completely wiped out in a certain battle, only the main general, Marquis Lieyang, survived.

Once we return to Daqin, we will be able to form a mature Fire Crow army within a few days.

For example, Liu Laosan and Liu Laohan, one of them practiced the "Beiming Zhenqi", a derivative martial art of Xuanwu Zhengang, and the other practiced the "Liehuoquan", which has the same origin as Huoyaojin.

The martial arts academy in Daqin County is similar to Xiaoyu’s “official school” (county school) in his previous life.

Liu Laosan and Yong Chi were the "tongsheng" and "xiucai" of the Wu Academy.

Of course, Liu Laosan was not even qualified to be a student, but Yong Chi was fully qualified to be a captain of the county garrison camp.

However, the Yong family was a powerful family in Pei County, and Yong Chi looked down on the small "hundred generals".

He wanted to seize the position of "County Lieutenant", but his foundation was not enough.

In the Liusha Region, he is the "God of War" that the imperial court wants to curry favor with.

In the Central Plains, some are neither high nor low.

Today he saw the stairs to climb to a "high position", and his chance to become an immortal was just around the corner!

But the cunning Liu Laosan actually wanted to snatch it from him.

"Liu Laosan, you don't even have a chicken at home, what can you use to entertain the Taoist priest? Stop making trouble here and get out!" Yong Chi shouted in a low voice.

"It takes fate to meet a Taoist priest, and it takes sincerity to serve a Taoist priest. I have a sincere heart!"

Liu Laosan looked at the old Taoist priest eagerly and said.

Xiao Yu sighed and said, "The secret has been revealed today. Our fate has ended!"

She took a step forward and suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Oh my, there's a ghost!" A wicked young man in the neighborhood shouted in fear, "Master Yong, that old Taoist priest is a ghost! Did you see him? He disappeared in broad daylight."

Yong Chi ignored him, kneeling on the ground, moving his knees, looking around, and anxiously shouted, "Master, I sincerely admit my mistakes and sincerely want to become your disciple. Master, teacher, please don't abandon your disciple!"

Liu Laosan got up with a frustrated look on his face and cursed at Yong Chi, "It's all your fault, you bastard! The old immortal has come to my home and has become my guest of honor. It's you who messed around and ruined my good fortune."

Yong Chi originally hated him for ruining his own plans and was filled with rage.

When he heard Liu Laosan turning the tables on him, how could he bear it?
He came up to Liu Laosan in a flash, raised his fist as big as a casserole, and hit Liu Laosan's nose seven or eight times in a row, leaving his eyes bruised, his nose bleeding, and his head dizzy.

Yong Chi still refused to let him go. He stepped on his face with his big foot and shouted, "Liu Laosan, kneel down and kowtow three times now, or I will destroy you!"

"Yong Chi, if you dare to hit my elder brother, I will kill you!"

Lu Wan was a beat slow to react and was unable to stop him earlier, so he rushed towards Yong Chi like a madman.

"Just you, a coward?" Yong Chi shouted at his fellow brothers, "Get out of here."

He took action himself and pinned Lu Wan to the ground and beat him hard.

Lu Wan is stronger than Liu Laosan and has reached the peak of the Zhenyuan realm. He only lacks a bit of luck or resources, such as a "Hunyuan Pill" worth a thousand gold, to become a human immortal.

But Yong Chi is a human immortal at the pinnacle of the Dharma realm.

"Yong Chi, if you dare to hurt my brother, I will kill you tonight!"

Liu Laosan got up from the ground, covering his face with his hands, his voice as cold as ice.

"Just you?" Yong Chi sneered.

"With my other two brothers, Fan Kuai and Cao Shen!" Liu Laosan said with sharp eyes and confidence.

“Fuck~~~” Yong Chi’s expression changed several times, and he finally loosened his left hand that was pinching Lu Wan’s neck, “Liu Laosan, you are a coward, I will always look down on you, bah!”

He spat a mouthful of thick phlegm at Liu Laosan, then walked away with a group of evil young men.

Liu Laosan wiped his face and helped Lu Wan up.

Both of them were limping and cursing, "You bastard Yong Chi, you hit me so hard."

After scolding Yong Chi for a while, Liu Laosan regained some strength and felt better.

He said, "Brother, go back quickly and ask my father for some medicinal wine, and apply it on your face and chest."

"Brother, you're not going back?" Lu Wan asked in confusion.

"I want to go find the old immortal." Liu Laosan looked towards the southwest. "The old immortal should have gone to Mangdang Mountain. I'll try to see if I can find him again."

Lu Wan hesitated and said, "That old Taoist priest is indeed weird. Yong Chi punched him but he didn't fight back. Yong Chi was bounced away.

I felt that he didn't want to kill him at all, otherwise Yong Chi would not have been able to withstand the attack and would have died on the spot.

Maybe he really is a god.

But he also said it clearly that the secret had been revealed and their fate was over.

We all know his identity as an old immortal, and he can no longer play around in the mortal world and save ordinary people."

"I know, I know, but I won't give up!"

Liu Laosan shouted excitedly: "The old immortal has already come to my house and wants to eat chicken at my house!
If it wasn't for that bastard Yong Chi, well, forget it. It's better to run all the way west and try my best to regain my immortal fate!"

"Brother, I will go with you to find the old immortal!" said Lu Wan.

"You can't follow him. He won't show up if there are too many people."

Liu Laosan waved his hand, then used his Qinggong skills and strode towards Mangdang Mountain in the west.

After running for about two or three miles, he slowed down, lowered his voice, and shouted: "Master, I am Liu Ji~~Master, I have something to say~~"

Liu Laosan really guessed it right. Xiaoyu did go west to Mangdang Mountain.

As long as she determined the location of the dragon's energy vein, she wouldn't have to wander around slowly like she did near the Liu family.

She was very fast, leaving Liu Laosan and Yong Chi behind and traveling at the speed of wind escape.

Liu Laosan guessed her direction correctly, but misjudged her attitude.

She is about to go through the thunder tribulation.

When he saw Liu Laosan, he had no intention of turning into a child and shouting "Old Man Liu", let alone playing the trick of "the white-bearded grandfather giving away the secret manual of magical skills".

Xiaoyu didn't dawdle on the way and went straight to Mangdang Mountain.

After entering Mangdang Mountain, the dragon energy veins have turned into high uplifted mountains, and there is no need to calculate the direction carefully.

In just one afternoon, Xiaoyu had run around the 300-mile-wide peaks of Mangdang Mountain at an extremely fast speed.

"So that's how it is. Mangdang Mountain is indeed the source of the dragon vein, and it is also the place where Liu Bang rose to power!"

Xiaoyu had always had a question: why Liu Han’s dragon vein was hidden under the water of Zhaoyang Lake.

Mountains can extend underwater, and water is also one of the conditions for nurturing dragon veins.

Only with mountains and water can a dragon vein be formed. Just like the dragon vein of the Qin Dynasty is in the Qinling Mountains, and the Wei River surrounds the Qinling Mountains.

But after the dragon veins are bred, they usually appear directly in the mountains, rather than hiding under the water. Now Xiaoyu has measured the Mangdang Mountain Range and finally discovered the secret of the Dragon King of Zhaoyang Lake: Mangdang in the west, Zhaoyang Lake in the east and dozens of other lakes are the yang and yin sides of Tai Chi respectively.

There are seventy or eighty large and small lakes including Nanyang Lake, Dushan Lake, Zhaoyang Lake and Weishan Lake, and they naturally have the charm of the Zhoutian Star Array.

The water veins of the lakes converge in Zhaoyang Lake and gather under the Dragon Palace.

There is a budding dragon vein hidden there.

In the Mangdang Mountain Swamp, including the main peak of Mangdang Mountain, there are more than seventy or eighty peaks of various sizes, and they naturally possess the charm of the Zhoutian Star Array.

The mountains converge under Mount Mangdang, where the dragon vein of the Liu family is about to be born, which is also the dragon vein of the Han Dynasty (Western Han Dynasty)!

Lakes are sunken, representing Yin, while mountains are convex, representing Yang. Fold them in half from the center, and the concave and convex will fit together, reflecting each other.

This is Tai Chi!
The center of Tai Chi is Liu Bang’s home, which is the geomantic node under the tomb of Liu Bang’s mother.

This is also the reason why Xiaoyu has been hanging around Lao Liu's house for a long time.

With nodes as dividing lines, the earth veins are divided into yin and yang, one step back is the yin vein, and one step forward is the yang vein.

Starting from the Liu family, it was time for the Yin vein to turn into the Yang vein. At that time, Xiaoyu was in this mountain, and had not yet understood the tricks, so he was a little confused and couldn't find the subsequent ground veins for a while.

At this time, Xiaoyu was standing on the highest peak of Mangdang Mountain, which corresponds to the "Deep Pool Dragon Vein" in the center of Zhaoyang Lake.

When the dragon vein is well developed and Liu Bang gains power, she dares to conclude that the dragon energy will transform into yin and yang, flow under this mountain, and hide within the mountain range.

"This is the best place to survive the catastrophe."

Xiaoyu was basking in the setting sun, overlooking the cliff thousands of feet below, his expression changing constantly.

This mountain will nurture the dragon vein of the Han Dynasty and must not be destroyed.

If she couldn't withstand the thunder tribulation, she only needed to dive downwards, and the thunder from the sky would probably not dare to strike her.

If the future habitat of the Han Dynasty's dragon vein is destroyed, how much will the number of days change?
"However, this kind of coercive self-protection is the way of the devil. Once you really do that, there will be endless troubles!"

Xiaoyu shrank down and disappeared at the top of the mountain.

It took her a full quarter of an hour to finally escape vertically into the core of the mountain.

If this mountain nurtures the dragon vein of the Han Dynasty in the future, the dragon vein should be where she is now.

Now there is not a trace of dragon energy here, only pure earth energy and spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

If one could open up a cave here and practice for eight or ten years, it would be equivalent to two or three hundred years of hard practice in the outside world.

Xiao Yu used the earth escape technique to wander around and actually found several pieces of high-quality spiritual jade.

One of the pieces of fiery red warm jade was several feet square.

Xiaoyu dug out a piece from the red warm jade and put it into his sleeve.

A "coffin" appeared here.

She ended her earth escape and lay her body inside, her thoughts expanding endlessly along the earth veins.

Gradually, she seemed to merge into one with Mangdang Mountain.

In this state, the efficiency of Qi refining is higher.

However, Xiaoyu was not immersed in cultivation. The heavenly tribulation was about to come, and there was no point in cultivating at this time.

She shook her sleeves and a few copper coins flew out.

Three coins are thrown out six times in total, and the six-line coins are used to calculate one's own good and bad fortune.

This is Xiaoyu's old skill, which he has been using since ten years ago.

The coins and the calculation method have not changed, but her skills have increased by more than a hundred times?
"Clang, clang~~"

After six times, Xiaoyu's face became very ugly.

"Master, is the situation very bad?"

Xiaoqiang poked his head out from the jade bone bell and asked with concern.

"How do you feel?" Xiaoyu asked.

"I feel depressed, fearing that the master's thunder tribulation this time will not go smoothly." Xiaoqiang said worriedly.

Xiao Yu sighed: "Did you see the hexagram just now?"

Xiao Qiang was silent for a while, then said, "How about you try again, Master? You should have tried at least three times back then."

“The hexagram indicated that there was no crisis, but I was afraid of making a mistake, so I tried a few more times.

If it happens just once now, it will be a sign of great misfortune with no chance of survival.

According to the principle of anticipating the enemy, I will only consider countermeasures based on the worst-case scenario. "

Even if she tried a few more times and the hexagram looked better, she could not let her guard down.

“Master, the sign of a ten-fold death is probably not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster.

Someone wants to take advantage of you to survive the thunderstorm and plot against you." Xiao Qiang said in a deep voice.

If it was just the thunder tribulation of the three disasters, which would mean death with no chance of survival, the master would not have said goodbye to Xi Juan so decisively and come here calmly to prepare to overcome the tribulation.

She can be calm because she is sure.

As a result, the hexagram now shows that there is no chance of survival out of ten deaths, or even nine out of ten deaths.

The crisis is related to thunderstorms, but it is mainly caused by the master's great enemy who wants to use natural disasters to create man-made disasters.

Xiao Yu said, "A few months have passed, and the Water Virtue Star Lord should have solved the case of the Daze Dragon Palace. Could it be that a powerful golden immortal is finally going to take action against me?"

“It shouldn’t be that serious.” Xiao Qiang consoled him, “There’s no need for the Golden Immortal to take action. You’re already weak after overcoming the tribulation.

An ordinary celestial being, or even not a celestial being, can easily take you down by bribing a few evildoers, such as demon immortals and evil cultivators."

Xiaoyu was not comforted at all.

After Xiaoqiang finished speaking, he also felt that there was a big problem with what he said.

It quickly made amends, “Master, your clever tricks will be useless in the face of the Golden Immortal.

But when faced with evil ways, even if it is a situation where there is no chance of survival, now that you have calculated it in advance, it should be easy to reverse your fate if you think about it a little.

After all, you have gone against the will of heaven countless times.

I have gone against the will of heaven countless times for others.

Isn't it natural for me to go against the will of heaven today?"

Xiaoyu still didn't feel comforted.

"Because I have gone against the will of heaven so many times, this time God wants to kill me too!"

Xiao Qiang panicked, "Master, don't be discouraged! If it doesn't work, let's go find Xi Juan.

Just like when the dog meat Taoist priest asked you to borrow the blessings of Suxipo.

Tell the truth to Xi Juan.

I think he is a filial child and will definitely cooperate with you."

——If you really want to borrow blessings, it’s not Xi Juan’s turn, you can just go to Liu Laosan directly.

Xiaoyu disagreed.

Xi Juan just had a peculiar fate. In terms of fortune, he was at most a marquis, and he also had a tragic fate of "dying young" at the age of 25. He didn't have much fortune at all.

Liu Laosan was the founding emperor of the country. However, Liu Laosan was not very lucky at this time. At least from the weather, he was at most a marquis.

Xiaoyu put away the coin, narrowed his eyes, and calculated quickly with his hands.

The six-yao copper coins are very accurate in predicting good and bad luck.

But to calculate the details and make scientific and logical deductions, one still has to use the innate divination.

Well, Liu Yao coins are like rolling dice, betting on big or small.

Zi Wei Dou Shu and Xiantian Bagua are the complete deductions for the future.

It is equivalent to letting super AI draw future scenes.

We can predict what choices she will make and what changes will happen in the future.

"Hehe, I just thought of Liu Laosan, but I didn't expect that Liu Laosan is still looking for me right now, wanting to get the immortal fate from me. God really favors me!"

After a while, Xiaoyu opened his eyes and smiled with a smug and strange look.

"Master, do you want to borrow Liu Laosan's blessing? He is a prodigal son of a ruffian, the same kind of guy as Niu Er from Tianmen Town. I even doubt whether he can fulfill your words, rise to prominence and become a noble man." Xiaoqiang asked doubtfully.

"Borrowing blessings can only help me overcome the heavenly tribulation. I am confident that I can withstand the thunder tribulation on my own. Why should I borrow blessings?" Xiao Yu said.
