"Tiger Form Fist Art? The Tiger Form Fist Art that Teng Jia Village doesn't teach to outsiders? "Meng Lutong grabbed the secret manual excitedly.
"Yes. It wasn't easy for me to get this. "The chubby middle-aged man wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead.
Meng Lutong hastily opened the secret manual and flipped through the pages quickly. He saw a picture on each page with a sentence or two beside it. Meng Lutong's eyes lit up as he read from the first page to the last page. He shouted in surprise, "This is the Internal Martial Art! What are the Three Postures called? They must be a lie! These moves are the right ones! "
"Haha." The chubby middle-aged man revealed a gratified smile.
Meng Lutong didn't care that his father was beside him. He immediately put the secret manual aside and started practicing according to the pictures.
*****
Ever since the first manual of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 was leaked, many influential people in many places in Yangzhou obtained the secret manual of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 from different sources. In just a few days, the leak of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 caused a huge uproar. The Gui Yuan Sect even announced that if anyone secretly sold the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》, they would be arrested and thrown into prison!
On the third day after the Gui Yuan Sect issued the order.
On the fourth day of May.
In every county city of Yangzhou's thirteen counties, a new guild hall opened. This guild hall was called the Qingshan Guild Hall!
… …
On a bustling street in Nanxing County City, hundreds of people surrounded a large mansion. This mansion's signboard was wrapped with a red cloth. On the signboard, there were four big words: "Qingshan Guild Hall!"
"Qingshan Guild Hall? A guild hall dares to name itself this way? Isn't it afraid of offending the Gui Yuan Sect? "
"Heh, you don't understand. This guild hall opened this morning. At that time, some people from the Gui Yuan Sect were there. "
"Why did this guild hall have such a name? Could it be that Lord Teng Qingshan is also opening a guild hall? Is he going to do business? "
The people were puzzled and muttered.
In their minds, the current Gui Yuan Sect was only able to achieve its current prestige under the leadership of Teng Qingshan. Although Teng Qingshan was not the Sect Leader of the Gui Yuan Sect, his status was higher than the Sect Leader of the Gui Yuan Sect. They didn't understand … … why would an Emptiness Realm Expert create such a guild?
As time passed, more and more people gathered in front of the hall.
"I heard that Qingshan Guild Hall has an important announcement this afternoon."
"It's getting late. It's time to announce it."
When the business opened in the morning, the clubhouse announced that there would be an important announcement in the afternoon, causing more and more people to gather in front of the clubhouse. An hour and a half later, the area outside the Qingshan Guild Hall was filled with people.
Suddenly —
Dong! Dong! Dong!
A large number of Gui Yuan Sect's soldiers, clad in armors, rushed out from the clubhouse, and stood in an orderly manner outside the clubhouse of Qingshan, maintaining the order. Soon after, three people walked out of the clubhouse of Qingshan. These three people were the County Governor of Nanxing County, the General of the City Guards, and the Curator of Qingshan Guild Hall.
"Haha, everyone." An elder dressed in a dark green cloak cupped his hands and said with a smile, "I am the Curator of Qingshan Guild Hall of Nanxing County, Wu Nian."
"Today is the opening of Qingshan Guild Hall. I said this morning that there would be an important announcement this afternoon."
Immediately, the surrounding people pricked up their ears, and the clamor immediately died down.
The Curator, Wu Nian, said loudly, "This important announcement is related to Lord Teng! It's related to the Internal Martial Art! "
Immediately, suppressed discussions and exclamations sounded.
Among the crowd, Meng Lutong, who came with his father and was protected by guards, pricked up his ears and listened attentively. The Curator, Wu Nian, scanned the crowd and said loudly, "A few days ago, the Tiger Form Fist Art, which was created by Lord Teng when he was young, was accidentally leaked to the public! When Lord Teng heard this news, he was furious! "
The crowd whispered to each other and laughed.
How could he not be furious? In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, which of the supreme sects didn't guard their own secret manuals well? Forbidding their disciples from teaching it to the public?
"However, Lord Teng is broad-minded."
The Curator, Wu Nian, said loudly, "He thought about it and understood. The Internal Martial Art he created was meant to be passed down to his disciples. Since it was leaked to the public, he took it as the will of the heavens. Therefore, he took advantage of the situation and sold the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 to everyone in the world at a low price. This way, anyone who wanted to learn the Internal Martial Art could learn it. "
"What!"
Immediately, the crowd cried out in alarm.
It was a mess! It was a mess!
Since the creation of the Land of the Nine Prefectures, which sect didn't cherish their secret manuals? If they leaked their secret manuals and other sects obtained them, wouldn't that make the other sects even stronger?
"Selling the secret manuals to everyone in the world?"
"What is Lord Teng Qingshan thinking?"
"Lord Teng Qingshan is still young. He is only twenty-three this year. To reach the peak at such a young age, it's normal for him to be unstable and want to be in the limelight. What a pity … … such a precious secret manual should be hidden and passed down to his own disciples. "Many people present were both surprised and sighed. They were surprised that they could see the secret manual of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》, but they sighed because Teng Qingshan was too reckless.
"Curator, what's the price? Don't sell it for tens of thousands of silver taels. We can't afford it. "Someone shouted.
"It's not expensive to sell an Internal Martial Art manual for tens of thousands of silver taels. If you can't afford it, don't buy it. "Another person rebuked.
Outside the Qingshan Enterprise, there was a commotion.
"Everyone, please don't make too much noise." The Curator, Wu Nian's voice echoed in the street, and the commotion immediately died down.
"It's not easy to cultivate the Internal Martial Art." The Curator said loudly, "Even if you have a secret manual to cultivate, I'm afraid only one out of a hundred people can successfully cultivate it." This sentence was true. In the past, with the guidance of Teng Shou and the others, only one out of twenty people successfully cultivated the Internal Martial Art. If one didn't have a master to teach them and only relied on the secret manual, the difficulty would be much higher.
"We understand. It's normal for such a miraculous fist art to have high aptitude," a bystander shouted.
The Curator, Wu Nian, smiled and said, "According to what Lord Teng said … … the secret manual that was leaked was the basic secret manual of Teng Jia Village. Now, my Qingshan Enterprise is also selling this secret manual. You can also set a price for this kind of secret manual. One 'Tiger Form Fist Art' manual only costs 100 taels of silver. "
"What?"
"Only 100 taels of silver?"
"Why is it so little?"
Everyone present was stunned.
In the Land of the Nine Prefectures, it was very expensive to learn inner strength. Even the 《Hidden Dragon Ranking》 and the 《Young Phoenix Ranking》 each cost 100 taels of silver. An ordinary inner strength secret manual was usually priced at 1000 taels of silver. As for the secret manual of the Internal Martial Art, it wasn't strange for it to be sold for several thousand taels of silver.
100 taels of silver!
Even in an ordinary village, if all the villagers pooled their money, they could easily gather 100 taels of silver. In other words, 100 taels of silver was enough for an ordinary villager to buy a secret manual and learn the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》.
"Give me one," someone immediately shouted.
"I'll buy two as well."
Many people immediately shouted. With such a low price, they could buy two or three books and give them to their friends.
"Okay." The Curator, Wu Nian, smiled and said in a clear voice, "This 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 costs 100 taels of silver each. Each person can only buy ten books at most. However, although this 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 is real, it is only a basic secret manual of Teng Jia Village. The cultivation method in it is very rough. "
These words made Young Master Meng Lutong, who was in the crowd, nod his head. During the past few days, he had been practicing the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》. Sometimes, there were only two lines of the incantation for each picture, which made him feel a little fuzzy. He was unable to determine how to use this technique.
"With this in mind, Lord Teng personally wrote a secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 and asked the Gui Yuan Sect to print it." The Curator, Wu Nian, said loudly, "The pictures in this secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 are extremely detailed and precise. Moreover, the description of each move is extremely detailed. It can be said that it is as if a teacher personally taught you! Moreover, this was personally written by Lord Teng. "
Immediately, many people became envious.
A book personally written by an Emptiness Realm Expert?
"A secret copy?" Meng Lutong's eyes immediately lit up.
"This is the secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》." With this, the Curator, Wu Nian, took a thick, thread-bound book with a golden paper cover. This secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 was five times thicker than the rough copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》! When held in one's hand, it felt like a huge brick.
On the golden cover, there were three big black words — Tiger Form Fist Art! The words were written in a flamboyant style, as if a tiger was pouncing.
"Having a secret copy is equivalent to having a teacher to teach you." The Curator, Wu Nian, smiled and said, "However, it is not easy to make a secret copy … Moreover, Lord Teng has ordered that there are a total of thirteen Qingshan Enterprise in the thirteen counties of Yangzhou. Each Enterprise will only sell ten copies of the 《Secret Copy》 a day. Today is the fourth of May, and the sale will last until the sixteenth of May! Stop! In other words, from the sixteenth of May onwards, the secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 will not be sold! "
"However, today is the opening day of the Qingshan Enterprise. Therefore, there is no restriction. Starting from tomorrow, we will sell ten copies a day at most. "
When the Curator, Wu Nian, finished speaking, many people immediately asked, "How much is a secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》?"
Wu Nian smiled and said, "A secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 costs one thousand taels of gold!"
This price caused everyone to gasp.
One thousand taels of gold? That was one hundred thousand taels of silver! It was not something an ordinary person could buy.
"So expensive."
"It's too expensive."
Many people couldn't help but exclaim.
"This is the ordinary version of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 or the secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》. If you want to buy it, please do it as soon as possible. From the sixteenth of May onwards, all the large Qingshan Enterprise will no longer sell the secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》. " The Curator, Wu Nian, smiled faintly and said, "Even if you sell one hundred copies of the secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》, that amount of money is nothing to Lord Teng."
"There is a reason why we are selling the secret copy until the sixteenth of May. Because this day is the day that Lord Teng will establish his sect. "
"Selling the secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》 is also to celebrate Lord Teng's establishment of his sect."
Everyone in the room began to clamor.
Establishing a sect?
On the sixteenth of May, Teng Qingshan will establish his sect?
"Although he will establish his sect. However, Lord Teng will not be accepting disciples on that day. " The Curator, Wu Nian, smiled faintly and said, "If anyone can cultivate inner strength by relying on the secret copy of the 《Tiger Form Fist Art》, it means that he has the aptitude to cultivate the Internal Martial Art. He can then head to Teng Jia Village in the Great Yan Mountain and learn the more profound fist arts of the Internal Martial Art. "
