From a refugee to a martial artist

Chapter 130 The incident
It was almost the end of June, but there had been no progress in the case of the flower thief.

Meng Yuan and Chen Shouzhuo staged a fake retreat with great fanfare, but the flower thief still did not show up.

There was no way, Chen Shouzhuo could not stay for long, so Meng Yuan persuaded him to leave first.

A day later, Dugu Kang and Mr. Wang actually came.

Meng Yuan was too lazy to host a banquet, but Dugu Kang was very enthusiastic and insisted on taking Meng Yuan to the teahouse to sit down.

"I heard from Mr. Chen that I think this matter is not very simple." After the two sat down, Dugu Kang saw that Meng Yuan was still not very enthusiastic, so he whispered.

He patted Meng Yuan on the shoulder and asked, "Do you know the magical power of hiding your form?"

Meng Yuan certainly knew that the so-called magical power of hiding one's form was not just about becoming invisible out of thin air.

But after this kind of supernatural power is activated, the Qi will be restrained and difficult to detect, the blood flow will be extremely slow, or even stop, like a dead object.

When a warrior searches for an enemy, he first calms his breath and second listens to the sound and smells the breath. Therefore, it is really difficult to detect an enemy unless he is in front of him.

As for Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, although they each have their own methods of expelling the enemy, since the enemy is like a dead object, it is difficult to find them.

The consumption of jade liquid when the Hidden Form Divine Ability is activated is not large, and it can last for a long time. Although it sounds strange, since humans are like "dead objects", their six senses are naturally weak and their defenses are insufficient.

If some of the magical powers of hiding want to be transformed into the magical powers of attacking, they need to change from "dead objects" to "living objects", and it cannot be achieved by just changing their thoughts.

Meng Yuan's newly cultivated magical power of Misty Rainbow and Flying Rainbow is divided into two parts. The first part also has the ability to isolate the qi, but it is actually a preparation for the second part's thrust. The two parts complement each other and are a method of unexpected sneak attacks, not a long-term ambush.

"The ability to hide one's form is just about concealing one's form and blocking one's energy, isn't it?" Meng Yuan asked someone to serve tea.

"You are still too young!" Dugu Kang looked like a master.

Meng Yuan was impressed by this and immediately offered him some tea. He asked, "Do you also want Master Kong's advice?"

Dugu Kang did not take the teacup either, and said: "Warriors develop the supernatural power of heaven, which includes methods of attack, methods of pursuit, and methods of hiding. The supernatural power of heaven is all-encompassing, and there is even a method of heavenly power for dual cultivation. Let me tell you what hiding is..."

"Tell me about dual cultivation first." Meng Yuan stopped.

"..." Dugu Kang was stunned for a moment, and said: "I'm talking to you seriously!"

"Brother Lekong, please speak." Meng Yuan served the tea and admitted his mistake.

Dugu Kang took the teacup and paused before saying, "Meng Shuangjue, let me ask you, what is hiding? What is concealing?"

"I'd like to hear your advice." Meng Yuan was very polite at this moment.

"People say that the small hidden in the wild, the middle hidden in the city, the great hidden in the court." Dugu Kang said seriously, "You warriors can identify the realm of others by either fighting, or going forward to explore the Dantian acupoints, or locking the Qi, and you will know the approximate level. You can't tell if it is higher than you, but you can probably tell if it is lower than you."

"I understand what you mean." Meng Yuan nodded in understanding. "You mean, the way this flower thief hides himself may not only be to conceal his aura and hide in dark places, but also to lower his realm and walk in the market every day. After all, no one will pay more attention to people with low realms."

"Good!" Dugu Kang rarely praised someone, "You understood it at once. No wonder Donor Ying likes you."

"Miss Third likes me?" Meng Yuan rubbed his hands.

"I mean admiration." Dugu Kang frowned and looked at Meng Yuan. "Although I am a monk, I also know that it is a heinous act for a servant to bully his master. You are really greedy..."

"Ahem... Brother Dugu, you are really a mean person." Meng Yuan immediately became serious and asked curiously, "How is this kind of hidden state hiding method different from the power accumulation method like the Mayfly World?"

"You know so much!" Dugu Kanggao took a look and said, "Both have to operate according to the Tianji Diagram at all times, but the method of accumulating power is like drawing a bow. The more curved the bow, the more powerful the arrow. It may be three to five times the usual power, or it may be ten, twenty, or even a hundred times the power. In fact, it is suppressing the realm. But the method of hiding the realm is the key to hiding. Even if you explore the opponent's Dantian, you can't tell the truth, but you can attack at any time." "I understand." Meng Yuan nodded and said, "I will pay more attention. This person should indeed be in the seventh level. A sixth-level person should not do such a thing."

Meng Yuan looked at Dugu Kang and asked, "Which family or sect do you think this kind of hidden divine power comes from?"

"I know that this family came from the Buddhist country in the west, and it really fits the Buddhist idea of ​​seeking emptiness." Dugu Kang smiled indifferently, like a high monk.

"Does this method have any shortcomings?" Meng Yuan asked.

"I guess, since you have concealed your realm, then you can determine the other party's aura, and they may not be able to detect it." Dugu Kang spread his hands, "Actually, I don't really know."

"Then who did you hear these things from?" Meng Yuan asked curiously.

"My mother!" Dugu Kang said as a matter of course.

"You were not very old when your mother passed away, right?" Meng Yuan asked.

"If you stay indoors all day, you can talk about it in front of the mirror all day, don't talk about my mother." Dugu Kang straightened his clothes, "I have been smart since I was young. My mother wanted me to follow the path of martial arts and told me a lot about martial arts! Let me tell you, I know more about martial arts than you, a martial artist!"

"Then why did your mother teach you the art of concealing your supernatural powers?" Meng Yuan became interested.

Dugu Kang sighed, but did not answer. He only said, "We both belong to the Laobiekeng Poetry Society, and we are close friends and debaters. I won't keep secrets from you. Anyway, don't tell anyone about what happened today when you leave, especially don't let Lao Wang know, he is Dugu Sheng's man."

Meng Yuan nodded in understanding, then politely poured tea for Dugu Kang, snatched the fan, and walked out.

"Where are you going?" Dugu Kang hurriedly followed.

"Go back to sleep!" Meng Yuan said.

"You...really?" Dugu Kang was surprised.

"I'll go and try to trick them." Meng Yuan walked back and first found Hu Qian and the others, "Bring your bows and arrows!"

After making the arrangements, Meng Yuan came all the way to the medicine market and stepped into the yard rented by Yang.

"Why are you here, Brother Meng? Do you want to recite a poem with me?" Yang Youzhi and Meng Yuan have become familiar with each other in the past few days.

"No need." Meng Yuan smiled, looked around, and asked curiously: "Brother Yang has stayed here for more than a month, but he has not left. What is the reason?"

"I heard that there will be a great medicine for sale in the next few days, so I came here to wait." Yang Youzhi said.

"I see." Meng Yuan held the hilt of the knife.

Then an arrow shot from the distance, powerful and domineering, and pierced straight towards Yang Youzhi.

When Yang Youzhi heard the sound of arrows, he retreated hastily.

Then two more arrows shot towards him. Yang Youzhi raised his sword and deflected them. The sword energy was so strong that it was clear that he had reached the seventh level.

"Brother Yang, you've been exposed!" Meng Yuan drew his knife.

Yang Youzhi glared at Meng Yuan, then said helplessly: "I didn't want to kill you."
