I began to understand the myriad things by chopping wood

Chapter 42: Village Tyrant, Competition

Xie Yuan threw Zhang Laoer to the ground and clapped his hands.

Everyone else in the forest, including Wang Lei and the other three, had dazed expressions.

How long has Zhang Laoer been bullying the village?

Ever since Zhang Lao Da became a warrior and entered the county government a few years ago, Zhang Lao Er has been the bully in the village.

From stealing chickens and dogs in the beginning, to bullying men and women later, and now to seizing land, no one can do anything about it, even the village chief and the elders can do anything about it. Xiaoshi Village has long been accustomed to the Zhang surname above their heads.

As a result, this local tyrant is now being pinned down and beaten, and he doesn't even have the strength to fight back?
Things have changed.

This day was overturned by Xie Yuan.

Many of the gangsters had subtle looks in their eyes, and the smarter ones had already taken this opportunity to secretly get up and slip away.

For example, Wang Ergou, he knew how ruthless Xie Yuan was, so he had already quietly crawled outside, stood up and ran away.

Sure enough, after beating up Zhang Lao Er, Xie Yuan ran over and gave each of the hooligans on the ground a big slap:

"Tell me! Will you block my way again in the future?"

"I don't dare, I don't dare, Yuanzi, no, Brother Yuan, I don't dare!"

"Will you cause trouble in the village in the future?"

"I don't dare anymore! I don't dare anymore!"

Snapped!
Xie Yuan slapped him again, and the gangster was stunned:
"Brother Yuan, what did I say wrong?"

Xie Yuan nodded and praised:

"You said it well! Go away!"

The gangsters scattered like birds and beasts, and the two relatively loyal ones still remembered to carry Zhang Laoer and run away with them.

There are so many people, it is impossible to kill them all, so I can only teach them a lesson and let them go.

But after this, the village should be much quieter.

Once the leader wolf falls, the remaining wild dogs may not be obedient.

As for the unorganized wild dogs, there is no need to worry about them.

The real trouble comes from people who intend to keep dogs.

Zhou Feng came up with a look of admiration and exclaimed:

"Brother Yuan, you're so handsome!"

The other people also looked at him strangely.

Although I feel that Xie Yuan has changed a lot recently and has become more and more capable.

But after really defeating the former village bully, he realized that Xie Yuan was completely extraordinary.

He is even more capable than Zhang Laoer!

Wang Lei and the others were still thinking that Xie Yuan's attack was ruthless and decisive, and he dispersed this group of troublemakers by himself, which was worthy of being a martial artist;

Only Zhu Dongming was not very surprised, because he knew that Xie Yuan's attack was not too cruel.

In the following days, the village became much quieter.

The news of what happened in the forest spread quietly. Xie Yuan was already famous for his ability to kill tigers and bears, and now he had beaten Zhang Laoer...

Xie Yuan eliminated the three evils, and everyone in the village looked at him with respect. The little girls loved to hang around his door and passed by him several times a day.

It's just that his vision is not limited here, otherwise, with just a shout, he would definitely be able to gather a group of people and become a village bully or something.

[Chopping wood: (2712/10000)

[Iron Shirt·Third Level: (673/1000)]

[Health-preserving Exercises·Second Level: (1369/2000)]

[Iron Armor Long Fist·Great Mastery: (21/500)]

In the small courtyard, Xie Yuan finished his training and stood still, glancing at the scene in front of him.

The progress of chopping wood was slowly increasing without him noticing. Although it would be a long time before the next time, the improved abilities from the first two breakthroughs could be said to have completely changed the trajectory of Xie Yuan's life. He was quite looking forward to the new abilities.

As for the Iron Shirt, the progress has passed halfway, and it is time to consider the breakthrough. The growth of the Health-preserving Skill is neither fast nor slow, and it is very stable. Just like itself, it has been subtly improving Xie Yuan's physique, and the slowly growing internal energy is also improving his strength.

Finally, there is the Iron Armor Long Fist.

Xie Yuan threw a punch so fast that it was almost invisible, the wind from the punch was whistling, and the power was fierce.

"Dacheng's fighting style is indeed much more powerful!"

Xie Yuan smiled:

"Although the boxing technique is simple, its power cannot be underestimated after practicing it to this level. If you had this level a few days ago, you wouldn't have cut down trees to divide the battlefield. You could have just gone up and punched them all away!"

Now, the blood in his chest is gradually becoming stronger, as thick as two thumbs put together, and his skin has reached a certain level. In addition, the internal energy in his meridians flows like a stream, bringing him endless strength. In addition, he has mastered the Iron Armor Long Fist and the powerful Three Axe. His strength is beyond the level of ordinary people. It is difficult for anyone below the level of martial artists to match him.

"Iron Shirt is almost at the third level of perfection, but to truly perfect the skin, I still need a special method. Only then can I become a true warrior."

Xie Yuan pondered:

"Let's go to the martial arts gym and ask. Senior Brother Huo is very optimistic about me and may be willing to take me in as a core disciple and teach me the skills."

In Panlong Town, inside the Tieyi Gate.

As soon as Xie Yuan entered the martial arts hall, he found that disciples were coming and going with serious expressions, and the large martial arts arena had been emptied and cleaned spotlessly.

"What's going on? Why is no one practicing? Who is coming?"

Xie Yuan pulled over a registered disciple he was familiar with and asked.

"Don't you know? Today is the day when the Black Tiger Boxing Gym and the Divine Weapon Gym come to exchange ideas."

"No one told me?"

"Well……"

Seeing the man's expression, Xie Yuan sighed and let go awkwardly.

He seldom came to the martial arts gym and was only a registered disciple, so it didn't matter whether he came or not, because no one notified him.

Xie Yuan became interested and decided to come here at the right time today.

It's a good opportunity to see what it's like when martial artists compete with each other. It may help you improve yourself.

Three poles in the sun.

There was a sudden commotion at the entrance to the martial arts gym, and then the door opened wide, allowing two teams of people to walk in.

Leading the group was a dark and sturdy man. It was the dead of winter and he was only wearing a cotton vest, revealing his muscular arms.

On the other side was a white-haired old man of medium stature and a calm expression, but two disciples behind him were holding a large black iron spear, which shone with a cold and intimidating light when the sun shone on it.

Behind each of them were a dozen disciples, who gathered together to block the entrance to the Tieyi Hall, making quite a noise.

Monk Liu had been standing at the door of the main house for a long time. Seeing this, his face darkened:
"You two, what are you doing with all this fuss?"

The dark and strong man laughed and said:
"Master Liu, do we consider this as mobilizing a large army? We only brought a few disciples with us. Hey, why are all the people from your Iron Armor Sect here? Is that all?"

Monk Liu had an ugly look on his face. The Tieyi Sect was already weak. In terms of the number of disciples, the Tieyi Sect could definitely not compare to them.

The dark and strong man, Wang Heihu, the owner of the Black Tiger Boxing Gym, said:

"Hey, we have so many disciples to support in our two martial arts schools. The medicine store in Panlong Town is always out of stock. The disciples are making slow progress, which makes the masters anxious. You see, your Tieyi Sect actually has few disciples, but it still occupies a large share of the medicine store. It is not appropriate to send a large amount of medicinal materials directly to you.

"I have discussed with Elder Fang that we three families should have a duel and discuss the principles to renegotiate the share of the medicine store. As for the rules, we will send out disciples to fight! Whoever wins more will be the most powerful, and we will rank first, second, and third, and then we will divide the share of the medicine store!"

Monk Liu frowned. The share of the pharmacies in Panlong Town was determined earlier, and the three pharmacies were about the same. But now that the Iron Clothes Sect is weak, the other two want to take his share.

With the help of medicine, martial arts training can be more effective, and disciples can grow faster. If this reduces the share of the Iron Armor Sect, the already weak Iron Armor Sect will be unable to develop further - and this may just be the beginning.

Wang Heihu and Fang Laogui said that they were competing for rankings, but in fact it was obvious that the two families had joined forces and came to Tieyimen with the intention of fighting two against one.

If I can’t even defeat one family, how can I defeat two families?
Monk Liu felt powerless, but there was nothing he could do given the situation.

He snorted coldly:
"Okay, that's it. Hoda, you go first!"

Although the Tieyi Sect's overall strength is weak, his several direct disciples have been with him for a long time and their skills are not bad.

Moreover, his iron shirt is indeed extraordinary. They are all first-class disciples, and opponents of the same level may not be able to break his defense. At least with several direct disciples from the other two families, he is not afraid of anyone!

Huo Da had a serious look on his face and was about to go on stage when he suddenly saw Wang Heihu laughing and saying:
"Wait a minute."
