The back office was the private house of the county magistrate.
The former county magistrate was a fanatic of cultivation and liked Taoist magic arts. He made elixirs and cultivated in the county government all year round. Finally, he resigned and it was said that he went to the secluded realm deep in Taibai Mountain to seek immortality and Taoism. Therefore, the layout of the back office of the county government was vaguely like a Taoist temple. There was a Taoist hall dedicated to the Taoist Ancestor, two study rooms, one practice room, one elixir room, six bedrooms, several other utility rooms, several small courtyards, a garden, water and rockery, which was quite quiet.
However, because no one lived and cleaned it for more than a year, it was covered with dust everywhere.
Li Mu wandered around casually and knew the layout of the back office like the palm of his hand.
The female attendant, Ming Yue, used her connections to intimidate others and called a few handymen to clean up the entire backyard.
The day was over soon.
At night.
Li Mu stood quietly in front of the bedroom window in the main room.
He began to think about something.
What he saw and heard this night was enough to prove that everything the old faker said was true, which also meant that the earth might really face the fate of being demolished and destroyed. Therefore, according to what the old faker said, he must practice Xiantian Skill and Zhenwu Boxing to a certain level within 20 years to break the shackles of the planet, walk out of this planet and enter the Star Region, and then change the fate of the earth.
On the earth, there were Li Mu's friends, classmates, villagers, the old faker, the fat Husky, and … and Li Mu's ignorant and innocent crush … All these beautiful things deserved to be defended and maintained by Li Mu with the most sincere attitude.
"To achieve this, the hope lies in Xiantian Skill and Zhenwu Boxing."
Li Mu's thinking became more and more clear.
When on the earth, the old faker spent 14 years teaching Li Mu a lot of things, such as catching ghosts, drawing talismans, geomantic omen, psychic, supernatural and other messy things, most of which were deceptive, but the old faker paid most attention to Zhenwu Boxing and Xiantian Skill. He once said that when these two kinds of Cultivation Methods were practiced to the extreme, they could sweep across the Star Region and be the king.
Li Mu used to think that the old faker was bragging, but now it seemed that it was very likely to be true.
"Maybe I have infinite strength now because I practiced Xiantian Skill on the earth."
Li Mu remembered that he killed two Wulin masters of Bloody-moon faction with a casual push last night.
There was no Spiritual Qi on the earth, so he could not practice Xiantian Skill, but 14 years of practice made Li Mu lay a perfect foundation. After coming to the alien planet with Spiritual Qi, the 14 years of accumulation immediately burst out. When he breathed, his body would feel an indescribable wonderful feeling, and the air was extremely sweet. Was this the so-called Spiritual Qi?
Under the nourishment of the Spiritual Qi, Li Mu's strength had begun to soar.
Although in the past day and night, Li Mu had secretly tried it, he still did not know how strong his power was.
And this was only the effect of staying on a foreign planet for a day and a night.
If he cultivated in such an environment for a few more years, how strong would he become?
Thinking of this, Li Mu became excited.
"Xiantian Skill, Zhenwu Boxing …"
He stood in the middle of the bedroom with a serious posture. Then, he slowly got into a posture and began to practice Zhenwu Boxing.
There were 18 styles in Zhenwu Boxing.
Each style was not complicated, and the movements were simple and clear.
When he was on Earth, Li Mu had already practiced these 18 movements to the point of perfection, but he didn't feel that they had any special power. They were similar to the eighth set of children's radio gymnastics at school. After 14 years of practice, even if he closed his eyes and performed them upside down from the beginning to the end, Li Mu could still be very proficient.
However, at this time, Li Mu soon felt something strange.
Of the 18 movements of Zhenwu Boxing, not to mention the movements, he couldn't even perform the Lifting Pole Style of the Fist Style. As soon as he made a slight posture, he immediately felt the pain in his muscles as if they were being torn apart, as if there were thousands of silver needles running through his muscles, bones, and meridians.
Li Mu shouted, and his whole body was suddenly soaked with cold sweat.
"How could this happen?"
He felt that it was inconceivable.
"What happened?
Did Zhenwu Boxing have a mutation after coming to the alien planet? "
After dozens of attempts, he finally managed to stand the Lifting Pole Style of Zhenwu Boxing.
But he could not hold it for three or four seconds, and the pain all over his body was unbearable, as if he was cut by thousands of knives. His face was sallow, and beads of sweat rolled down from his forehead. Li Mu shouted and fell on his back.
As for the first three styles of Zhenwu Boxing, Rocking-sky Hammer, and Sky-breaking, he could not even think about it, let alone perform them.
Li Mu lay on the black brick floor, his chest was violently rising and falling, and he breathed rapidly.
He was thinking quickly in his mind, trying to find the reason for this abnormality.
However, about a quarter of an hour later, an unexpected change appeared again.
Li Mu suddenly felt that the sharp pain all over his body dissipated like the tide, and a kind of numb and warm feeling surged all over his body, with an indescribable sense of comfort, as wonderful as soaking in a hot spring.
Li Mu stood up like a carp jumping.
He moved his hands and feet, feeling comfortable and energetic like never before.
As if the previous pain was just an illusion.
"Eh?" Li Mu exclaimed, and found that there was a layer of black stains on his skin. Looking carefully, it was a kind of dirt called blackheads, which was similar to the blackheads squeezed out of the noses of beauties on the earth from his skin pores. His arms, legs, chest, abdomen, and even face, feet … were all over his body.
"This is …"
"Is it cutting hair, washing marrow, and changing physique?"
Li Mu suddenly understood a little.
On the alien planet full of Spiritual Qi, some profound meaning of Zhenwu Boxing was aroused, so the power was initially shown, even a simple Lifting Pole Style had unparalleled power. He just practiced Zhenwu Boxing, aroused the profound meaning of this immortal fist, and changed his physique silently, and the sharp pain should be the side effect of body transformation and improvement.
Understanding this, he suddenly became excited.
"It is really the immortal fist."
"Since Zhenwu Boxing has such power, what about Xiantian Skill?"
In excitement, Li Mu didn't care to clean the black stains on his body, but directly sat cross-legged on the spot, and couldn't wait to try to practice Xiantian Skill. He put his tongue on the upper jaw, eyes on the nose, nose on the heart, heart on the heart, and began to breathe with a strange rhythm.
Xiantian Skill was a kind of breathing method and guiding skill.
Between breathing, a kind of experience that had never been experienced on the earth appeared in Li Mu's body.
The moonlight shone on Li Mu's body, making his whole body seem to emit silver brilliance, with a layer of dreamy color.
The legend began to unfold.
…
…
At the same time.
The night fell.
In the mansion of Zhou Wu, the deputy county magistrate of Taibai County, a large official party was in progress.
In addition to Zheng Longxing, the Dianshi janitor who held the military power, other officials, big and small, appeared in the mansion of Zhou.
"The imperial court is unfair. Deputy county magistrate Zhou, you have been in charge of Taibai County for a year, and you have worked hard and made great contributions. You should have succeeded the position of the county magistrate, but it was stolen by a young man. Li Mu is just a useless scholar, a blockhead, how can he be above you?" A low-grade civil servant said loudly.
"Yes, I saw Li Mu today, he is just a waste, who has no ability to manage and guard a county. We are not satisfied that such a stupid county magistrate should be forced to drink us."
"Hehe, no matter what, in the future, I will still only listen to you, Duke Zhou."
A group of civil servants, big and small, rushed to show their loyalty to the county magistrate Zhou Wu.
The county magistrate Zhou Wu, dressed in black, sat on the main seat, holding a glass of wine with a smile, like a kind rich man, looked at the crowd, and did not speak.
The Zhou family was one of the largest families in Taibai County, and Zhou Wu, as the contemporary master of the Zhou family, was absolutely a local bully.
A year ago, the former county magistrate resigned, and the position of the county magistrate was vacant. Zhou Wu managed it for a year, and the whole Taibai County was already a piece of iron plate, and he also worked for a while. Originally, the position of the county magistrate was already in his pocket, but he did not know what went wrong at the last moment, and it was taken away by a little thing who was still wet behind the ears.
Zhou Wu was not reconciled.
But for so many years, he had been used to not show his emotions, so he would never show it.
At this time, the secretary Feng Yuanxing, who had not spoken a word, put down the wine bottle in his hand, and he already had a plan in his mind. He smiled and said, "You don't need to be anxious. Today I saw that Li Mu looked weak and timid, but he was just pretending to be calm. From other signs and news, he is not from a big family, so we don't need to pay too much attention to him. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local bully, not to mention that Li Mu is not even a strong dragon, but just a reptile. As long as we unite, in the future, the power of Taibai County will still be in the hands of Mr. Zhou. Only Mr. Zhou's words count, and Li Mu is just a joke."
In terms of official rank, Feng Yuanxing, as the secretary, was equal to the deputy county magistrate Zhou Wu, one of the three giants under the county magistrate. But because he was not from a high family, he had no one to rely on in the officialdom of Taibai County, and it was difficult to gather people, so Feng Yuanxing had always been attached to Zhou Wu, as a subordinate, and never fought for power.
"Haha, it's all thanks to your help, please drink this cup." Hearing this, Zhou Wu showed a satisfied smile on his face, and he was happy in his heart, laughed, and toasted.
In the lobby, suddenly, there was a lot of laughter.
…
…
In the Dianshi janitor's mansion.
In the secret room, as one of the three giants in Taibai County, Zheng Longxing, looked surprised.
In front of him, a warrior in black clothes, knelt on one knee and said, "Commander, according to the news from the faction, Li Mu is a martial arts master, and he killed two brothers in the Joint-force level in one move … This assassination mission failed."
